FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tom Brady grew from a sixth-round draft choice into one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history. Off the field, he's a celebrity with a supermodel wife and lucrative marketing deals.
There have been posts of him as a child holding a basketball with a Celtics headband photo-shopped in; his job resume from college; and a video of him jumping off a cliff into water while on vacation.
The constant media/social media drumbeat keeps the debate about Brady's culpability alive.

Goodell's decision upholding, reducing or eliminating the punishment won't likely cause major changes in  perceptions of a four-time Super Bowl champion — perceptions enhanced during a stellar 15-year NFL career, yet sullied in one game in which he may have knowingly used deflated footballs.
"If you're not from the area, the Patriots are an amazingly easy team to hate," said Adam Brasel, an associate professor of marketing at Boston College. "The actual severity of the punishment is not going to change people's perceptions. They've already made up their minds."
Jim Kelly and Troy Aikman criticized Brady. Dan Marino said his opinion of Brady as one of the best quarterbacks ever won't change.

"He's not trying to win people over," Ben Rawitz, Brady's manager, told The Associated Press. "It's all coming from him. He's always held things kind of close to the chest, but times are changing. It's nice for him to put out a little bit of who he is."
Backers of other NFL teams may not be as supportive.
"It's really easy to try to be infuriated about everything," Brasel said, "but people forgive a lot over time."
