Tom Brady never netted a dollar playing professional baseball ... but a card of him in uniform just made one seller a boatload of cash. A baseball card of the seven time Super Bowl winning quarterback sold for $158,600 online Saturday after a contentious bidding war. As we previously reported ... the happy seller is a Minnesota card collector who pulled the one of a kind Topps Tom Brady Montreal Expos Superfractor card ...
talk about a lucky draw! TB12 played catcher for his high school baseball team, and the Montreal Expos (now the Washington Nationals) took him in the 18th round, 507th overall ... not high enough to entice Tom away from his University of Michigan scholarship. The rest is history ... Brady's gone down as the greatest QB of all time, a surefire Hall of Famer though it hasn't stopped people from imagining what could've been.
Topps put out a commercial reimagining Brady's life as an MLB player instead ... guy ended up being the G.O.A.T. in a different sport (no surprise there). Six figures for a guy who never played an out of pro baseball ... who knew the road not taken could pay so well?.
