Some dudes have it all: A few Super Bowl rings, model wifey, and millions of dollars. That doesn't mean they don't fail like the rest of us, though. Case in point—Tom Brady. Homie celebrates his 34th birthday today, and while the two-time Super Bowl MVP has his share of career highlights, we figure it'd be more interesting to bring you his biggest fails. That's right, from the ponytail hairstyle to losing to Eli Manning and the G-Men in Super Bowl to his awful dancing, here are Tom Brady's 10 Biggest Fails...

10. Getting His Zoolander On
DATE: 2007 - present
COMPLEX SAYS: From Uggs for Men (really?) to Stetson, dude has had his share of awful photo shoots throughout the years. We're all about getting that endorsement cake, but c'mon son, Peyton Manning's in every other commercial on TV but at least he keeps his shirt on.
9. Beefing With Randy Moss Over...Grooming Tips?
DATE: October 2010
COMPLEX SAYS: Rumor has it, he and Randy Moss had to be separated while arguing over hairstyles. Yup, Brady wanted Moss to shave his beard (SMH, like dude is playing for the Yankees), so Randy told him to cut his hair 'cause he looks like a girl. Randy 1 - Tom 0.
8. Mean Two-Step at Carnival
DATE: 3/8/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: You're with your supermodel wifey at Carnival in Brazil, nothing could possibly go wrong, right? Wrong! Tom Brady dances like a white boy—that's expected—but he has to move in the pocket a little so we figure he'd have some kind of coordination. Nope. Instead, this video proves that his lack of rhythm rivals that of Mark Madsen. Well, nah. At least Mad Dog went hard with his. Pause.
7. Super Bowl XLII
DATE: 2/3/2008
COMPLEX SAYS: Undefeated heading into the Super Bowl, the Pats were on the verge of making NFL history, and were finally going to shut Mercury Morris up become the first NFL team with an undefeated season since the 1972 Dolphins. But then the Eli and the G-Men came through and put a end to all that with a thrilling 17-14 comeback victory. Thank you BasedGod (and David Tyree)!
6. Shed So Many Tears
DATE: 4/11/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: OK, so Brady's won three Super Bowls, a couple MVP awards, and has been named to six Pro Bowls, figure he'd get over being drafted in the sixth round, right? Nah, dude turned on the waterworks while reliving the moment during an interview with ESPN. Oh, you mad?
5. Gets Ethered By Justin Bieber
DATE: 6/13/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: Justin Bieber's just been shitting on Boston since day one. Homie performed in Beantown rocking a Yankees cap and bigged up the Lakers during his set, too. Then he went to the booth to spit bars and diss one of Boston's biggest sports heroes. One of Bieber's most badass sports moments? We thought you knew.
4. Yankees Fitted
DATE: 5/2/2007
COMPLEX SAYS: Blasphemy! In one of the biggest moments in the pop culture history of the Yankees cap, Tom Brady shocked Boston fans everywhere by repping the Evil Empire while in the West Village. SMH, how much you wanna bet that Gisele put him up to this...
3. #JetsGo
DATE: 1/16/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: The Pats finally lost to Gang Green and Tom Brady finally failed against his divisional rival. Brady had a lackluster QB rating of 89.0 compared to Mark Sanchez's 127.3. Too bad the Jets treated it like the Super Bowl and ran out of gas in the AFC Championship game. But that's beside the point, now that the lockout's over we CAN'T WAIT for an interesting battle in the AFC EAST. Soundtrack, please!
2. The Ponytail
DATE: 3/8/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: Reports say Brady wanted to cut his hair but Gisele wouldn't let him. Yup, homie is definitely whipped.
1. 2000 NFL Scouting Combine
DATE: 2000
COMPLEX SAYS: A 5.23 40 time and showing up to the combine in this kind of shape is what led to dude being picked 199th overall (behind quarterbacks like Chad Pennington, Giovanni Carmazzi (who?), and Chris Redman). See, you too can go from being pale and undersized to bagging a supermodel wifey and wining a few Super Bowl rings...alright, maybe not, but this should at least make you want to hit the gym.
