he had a child out of wedlock with the actress bridget moynahan and went on to marry the brazilian supermodel gisele bundchen. 24-year-old tim tebow by contrast says that he's a virgin. he's a devote evangelical. so open about his faith that his on-field devotion is widely known as tebowing. in fact just this week, some high school students in new york got suspended for blocking the hallway while tebowing in between classes. >> i forgot about you, tom. >> i'm good. i'm used to the heat. >> reporter: brady made a cameo in hbo's "entourage." >> timmy, we're trying to tell our story here. >> reporter: tebow was in an ad for focus on the family. on the field, there are vast differences, too. brady swears like a sailor when his teammates do things he doesn't like but look what tebow does when his receiver misses what could have been a touchdown pass. >> no big deal. it just makes it closer for just a little bit longer. you're about to catch the game winner. >> reporter: no question one of these guys has more impressive stats. this season brady is number two in most yards passed. tebow is last. >>
