'I think they took the California out of the boy!': Tom Brady finally joins Instagram with snowy snap
The four-time Super Bowl Champion has the week off before he takes the field for his first NFL playoff game this season.
So it was the perfect time for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady to join Instagram.
The 39-year-old husband of Gisele Bündchen posted his first snap to the photo-sharing social network on Saturday.

In the image, the future Hall-of-famer stands outside while snow falls on a wintry landscape.
He's not exactly dressed for the weather, sporting only a white t-shirt, dark trousers, white trainers and a ball cap.
His caption was a takeoff of a classic play on words, though slightly modified: 'You can take the boy out of California... and I think they took the California out of the boy!'
Still going strong: The four-time Super Bowl Champion has the week off before he takes the field for his first NFL playoff game this season
Tom Brady is originally from San Mateo in northern California.
While it's not clear who 'they' is, or if his lack of clothes signaled the extraction of his California heritage, fans immediately responded.
After only an hour, the post got over 77,000 likes, while his account had garnered 277,000 followers.
Smart man: He also seemed to quickly get the hang of who to follow on the massively popular social network, as aside from a few brands, he wisely followed his wife of eight years Gisele as well (couple pictured together in September 2016)
Practically a pastime: Of course supermodel Gisele, 36, is an expert when it comes to entertaining her fans on the photo sharing platform
