Last month, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady squared off against Peyton Manning for old time’s sake. However, the arena was different, as they faced each other at a charity golf event alongside Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods. Brady didn’t fare too well on the green, but did get a couple of exquisite shots.
Unfortunately, things only got worse for Tom Brady, as he and Mickelson lagged behind. Rather embarrassingly, Brady suffered a wardrobe malfunction when he split the back of his pants.
Luckily, a change of pants reflected in his game, and he steadily improved as the game progressed. The former New England Patriots player actually holed out for birdie from 100-plus yards out on hole No. 7. This helped revitalize Brady and Mickelson and they nearly pulled off a late comeback before ultimately losing to Woods and Manning.

Tennessee Titans’ head coach and former Patriots linebacker Mike Vrabel recently spoke to “The Camera Guys”. Clearly, he couldn’t resist joking about Brady’s up and down day on the golf course.
“Right now after watching Tom golf, I wish we were best friends. I wish we golfed every day, for a lot of money, after watching that debacle,” Vrabel grinned.
“He was so in shock that he actually hit a good shot that he (expletive) his pants and his pants burst,” Vrabel said. “He was so nervous to start.”

Fortunately, for Tom Brady, Vrabel had had enough of talking trash, and praised him. He confessed, “But he is a good player. Last year I played in his Lake Tahoe event and you had to putt out everything. You’re sitting there, and you’re putting a 2-foot putt, and you’re like, ‘Are you kidding me? This is nuts.'”
Back in their heyday, Brady and Vrabel were highly competitive. This was especially when they played for the Patriots.
