Drew Brees Is Sports Illustrated Sports Man Of The Year!
Drew Brees is named SI's Sports Man of the Year
Celebrity sports dad Drew Brees has been named the Sports Illustrated Sports Man of the Year for 2010! Drew Brees led his team, the New Orleans Saints, to their very first Super Bowl win last year after joining the team in 2006.
This morning on the Today show, Drew Brees said; “It’s an unbelievable honor, for everything that it stands for, and it just makes me reflect back on the last five years in New Orleans, and the teams that I’ve had the opportunity to play for. And it’s just been a special, special journey.”
But Drew Brees isn’t just an excellent athlete; his foundation also has helped close to 50 schools and organizations in New Orleans to aid in the Hurricane Katrina recovery.
“The more that I’ve learned about the award and that it goes well beyond what you accomplish on the field, that it’s very much about what you do off the field as well, with community service and your family, makes the award even more special to me,”
“I needed New Orleans so badly back in 2006, just somebody to believe in me, somebody to care about me,” he said. “And that’s why myself and my wife Brittany, we just tried to throw ourselves into the community, to do our part.”
Drew Brees and his wife, Brittany have 2 sons together. Drew Brees is the 57th recipient of the Sports Illustrated Sports Man of the Year honors. What do you think of Drew Brees as this year’s winner?

After winning a Super Bowl it is profitable for Brees to be a really nice guy. Drew Brees is a fake, a fraud and a phony. (“Just ask Mike Ditka & the NFLPA”)
The NFLPA AND the Owners should give a little more the retired players.
The situation is a classic story of American greed and akin to many others that are collectively bringing this country to its knees. Sorry for being so severe, but this is happening. I’m a Republican BTW … so don’t go calling me a socialist. How’s that for some flame bait?
ttrain commented on Nov 30 10 at 1:53 pmDrew Brees is a lil midget. He sux. The only reason they won the Superbowl, is due to the great defense and great receivers that make midget Drew look good, he’s nothing but a Phillip Rivers style qb that throws the ball up and lets his receivers go get it….his accuracy, his skill, questionable at best, and i’m pretty sure he is on the “funny” side of the fence. His wife looks like a transexual, so i’m really unsure..
