Tom Brady is widely regarded as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. He has won seven Super Bowls, five Super Bowl MVP awards, and three NFL MVP awards. He is also the oldest player to ever win a Super Bowl, at age 43.

But Brady is not done yet. He has signed a contract extension with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that will keep him playing until at least 2022, when he will be 45 years old. And he has hinted that he might play even longer, saying that he would “consider” playing until he is 50.

That’s why a group of loyal fans have launched a campaign called “80 for Brady 2023”, which aims to celebrate Brady’s 80th birthday in style. The campaign’s website states that they want to “honor the GOAT (greatest of all time) with the greatest birthday party of all time”.

The campaign has three main goals: to raise $80 million for Brady’s favorite charities, to gather 80,000 signatures on a petition to rename the NFL MVP award after Brady, and to organize a massive birthday bash for Brady in his hometown of San Mateo, California, on August 3rd, 2023.

The campaign’s organizers say that they are not affiliated with Brady or his team, but that they are simply fans who admire his achievements and his longevity. They hope that Brady will appreciate their efforts and join them for the celebration.

“We want to show Tom how much we love him and how much he inspires us,” said one of the campaign’s founders, who goes by the name of TB12Fan. “He is more than just a football player. He is a legend, a role model, and a hero.”

The campaign has already attracted thousands of supporters online, who have donated money, signed the petition, and shared their messages of appreciation for Brady. Some celebrities have also joined the campaign, such as actor Mark Wahlberg, rapper Snoop Dogg, and former president Barack Obama.

“Tom Brady is a national treasure,” Obama said in a video message. “He has shown us what it means to work hard, to overcome challenges, and to chase your dreams. I’m proud to support 80 for Brady 2023 and I hope you will too.”

However, not everyone is enthusiastic about the campaign. Some critics have accused the campaign of being a waste of money, a publicity stunt, or a cult-like worship of Brady. Some rival fans have also expressed their dislike of Brady, who has often defeated their teams in crucial games.

“Tom Brady is the worst. He is a cheater, a liar, and a sore loser. He doesn’t deserve any respect or recognition. He should retire already and leave us alone,” said one angry fan, who goes by the name of HateBrady69.

The campaign’s organizers say that they respect everyone’s opinions, but that they will not let the negativity stop them from pursuing their goals. They say that they are confident that they will reach their targets and make Brady’s 80th birthday a memorable occasion.

“We know that Tom has a lot of haters, but we also know that he has a lot of fans who love him and support him. We are not doing this for ourselves. We are doing this for Tom and for his legacy. He deserves to be celebrated and honored for everything he has done and everything he will do,” said TB12Fan.

The campaign’s website invites anyone who wants to join the campaign to visit their page and follow their social media accounts. They also encourage anyone who has a personal story or message for Brady to share it with them, as they plan to compile them into a book and present it to Brady as a gift.

“We want Tom to know how much he means to us and how much he has impacted our lives. We want him to feel our gratitude and our love. We want him to have the best birthday ever. We are 80 for Brady 2023 and we are ready to make history,” said TB12Fan.
