Three games into his second season at the University of Michigan and Tom Brady finally got onto the field. It was late in the Wolverines' blowout victory over UCLA, but the chance to play, the chance to show what he could do after all the waiting and all the practice was coveted nonetheless.

Three games into his second season at the University of Michigan and. It was late in the Wolverines' blowout victory over UCLA, but the chance to play, the chance to show what he could do after all the waiting and all the practice was coveted nonetheless.

Carr wasn’t a yeller or a screamer. He listened, nodded and said he’d grant the release, but on one condition. He wanted Brady to think it over for one night and remember one thing while he did. That day in Ann Arbor though was a spark that built a legendary player. It was the start of an unheralded underdog taking perceived disrespect and fueling it to become the ultimate winner.

The NFL was unconvinced, of course. Brady would wallow in the draft until the sixth round. As the picks rolled on without his name called, an emotional Brady took long walks or stood in his yard taking frustrated cuts with a baseball bat. He pledged to make everyone pay. Brady can leave the NFL knowing the league never got him — he started his final 125 games and hadn’t missed a game due to injury since 2009.
