15. Tom Brady

Tom Brady is the favorite grandparent of everyone. He expects a lot of you and he’s not afraid to show his disappointment, but he’s also kind and giving.

You know when you’re in Grandpa Brady’s house, he’s going to shower you with gifts. He spreads the football to his receivers better than any quarterback in the league. With him under center, it’s a guaranteed trip to the Conference Championship game. He might yell at you if you drop the ball and grandma Gisele will say things like, “Grandpa Tom can’t throw it and catch it himself,” but that’s all out of love. Grandpa Brady just wants you to be the best version of yourself that you can be. And he’s going to do his best to ensure that happens.

He’s also the goofball grandpa. He’ll poke fun of himself if it means getting a laugh out you. He doesn’t take things too serious, unless he’s down 28-3 in the Super Bowl. Then it’s best not to talk to Grandpa Brady and just do everything as he says.

Maybe you’re sick of Grandpa Brady. It’s almost certain that you thought he would no longer be with us dating back at least three years. But he’s still alive and demanding that you take your shoes off when you enter his house. You want him gone. You want to enjoy your other grandparents, but you also know that there will never be another like Grandpa Brady and you want as much time with him as possible.
