PrintBrady's Kid: John Edward Thomas Moynahan
Ex-Girlfriend Was 'Pleased' Brady Was Present at Birth
Through her publicist, actress Bridget Moynahan revealed the name of her son with New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady: John Edward Thomas Moynahan. The initials spell the team name of one of Brady's division rivals: JET. Well, close enough.
Coincidence aside, Edward is Brady's middle name, and Thomas is obviously his first. There has been speculation for days that Moynahan and Brady had settled on Jonathan. So much for speculation.
Moynahan's publicist, Gary Mantoosh, also told the Associated Press that, "Bridget is very thankful for a happy baby, excited about being a mother, and very pleased that the father, Tom Brady, was able to be there for the birth."
That's a stark contrast to what some hate-filled people would have you believe. (See also.)
Among the allegations: Brady is selfish. Brady distanced himself from his family. Brady doesn't care about Moynahan or his child. Brady doesn't care about his teammates. Brady skipped practice and camps. Brady will be unprepared for the season. The Patriots are doomed by Brady's hand. At the urging of one of the accusers, we marked her words. We remember where we read it.
Where are those people now? Here apologizing? It is to laugh.
I'm sure there's some other celebrity over whom to obsess or some other cause over which to spew bile.
Anyway, giving the baby two of Brady's names shows Moynahan doesn't hold a grudge like these people, and Brady's cross-country sprint to make it to the blessed event is proof positive he's the man of character we knew him to be.
In spite of the ill-will perpetrated by the drive-by posters, we're happy for Brady and for Moynahan, and we're looking forward to the Patriots 2007 campaign. If Friday's first half against Carolina is any indication, Brady is well-prepared. (Just imagine that 7-month-old little dude sitting next to the Lombardi trophy. Ain't he cute?)

I *KNOW* you've been obsessing about this ...
In late May, after first writing that I didn't understand the obsession people and the media have with the Brady-Moynahan story, I asked:
More than half of us didn't get it and never would. Funny. I still don't.
And in mid-July, after dragging Brian Urlacher into the fracas, I asked:
After "never speak of this again" took an early lead, "I want to hear what they have to say" made a tremendous comeback and ended up with a winning edge. Well, we're still waiting. (Cue cricket sound effect.)
(Quite honestly, I never want to speak of this again. Really.)
Kid's Name
As for the whole baby will make them lose the Super Bowl. The Baby wasn't there last year, the Baby wasn't there in 2002. Neither time did the Pats win a Super Bowl.
As long as he doesn't fight dogs, doesn't get in trouble, and keeps his mouth shut about stuff that's not Football in general (and Money, he doesn't, but others do, and I hate when they start talking about how unfair their lives are because they can't get ten million a year only eight million. Dudes, my top salary of the future is like... maybe 50,000, 70,000 if I go into the managerial land. They should shut up already).
Personally, I like him a lot and he's still one of my favorite players.
