Foppish Brady

Tip to Derek, he’s just gotten ridiculous

It started with the goat-cuddling. Then came some more glamour ads. And questionable clothing choices. And getting fed poolside by his wife. And whining for calls from officials at the slightest contact. And I’m probably forgetting a few. All funny, but still not enough from Brady himself to become a joke … at least not with his impressive resume on the field to counter it.

But then came the frosted tipping point.

He grew his hair like a teen pop sensation. And kept on growing it. And now he’s endorsing a — let’s not pretend otherwise — a women’s shoe line. It’s a slippery, hair product and moisturizer-covered slope. And Tom Brady is falling down it with no end in sight.

Tip to Ben, he’s losing his hair

The National Enquirer reported that Brady’s car was spotted outside Leonard Hair Transplant Associates in Cranston, R.I., on Nov. 9. That would be the office of Dr. Robert Leonard, described on his website as “New England’s foremost authority on hair restoration.”

“Guys just don’t want to be bald,” said Dr. Raymond Konior of Premiere Hair Restoration in Chicago. “Great heads of hair are perceived as being stronger people, better-looking people.”

Leonard‘s office wouldn’t confirm if Brady was a patient, saying in a statement that, to protect patients’ privacy, “We don’t comment on, confirm, deny or otherwise discuss matters related to our client list.” But if Brady is having hair restoration, Konior said it‘s highly unlikely he’s doing it with five weeks left in the regular season and the playoffs looming.
