-- Tom Brady is not immune to criticism from Bill Belichick.
During his appearance on the Your Mom's House Podcast, former Patriot Heath Evans told a story of the time Belichick tore into Brady during the 2007 season.
"I remember it was '07. We smoked the team by like 50 points and Bill comes in and he's mouthing off at Brady about something," Evans said. "I'm trying to remember how it started but he was like, 'If you weren't so worried about you and Gisele's (Bundchen) next GQ magazine maybe, just maybe you wouldn't have thrown that interception. What is this Christmas? It's October, Brady. Christmas come early or something? I can go somewhere for Foxboro High and get someone to that ball better than you.' Just going at him, you know?"

Heath Evans also told an incredible @RandyMoss story: He said they were at his golf charity event, there was a pregnant lady on a cart with Gatorade & candy, Moss told her she shouldn't be out there and ended up taking out a wad of $100s, gave it to her & told her to go home! pic.twitter.com/MWt5wVwZ5u

That meant a lot to me. It meant a lot to my kids and my family and we are ecstatic to have two more shots to play for the Patriots." -- Stephen Gostkowski, after signing a two-year deal with the Patriots on April 9th
