Tom Martinez

I didn’t know who Tom Martinez was until this weekend. Maybe if I were a Patriots fan I would have, as he is Tom Brady’s mentor, but as we all know, I’m not a Patriots fan, but I have become a fan of Tom Martinez. In addition to Tom Brady, Tom has also worked with John Elway and JaMarcus Russell and has been a respected and award winning coach at the College of San Mateo in California.

Tom is in dire need of a kidney transplant and the organization MatchingDonors.com is in the process of trying to find him a donor to save his life.

You may have seen the special CBS Sports did on Tom’s life, “The Tom Behind Tom Brady” which originally aired on Thanksgiving, that’s how I learned about him. If you haven’t, take a moment to watch it.

If you or someone you know is interested in finding out if you could be match for Tom, please visit MatchingDonors.com

Even if you’re not a match, someone out there is, so please share the link: http://www.cbssports.com/video/player/play/videos/a4C1pcoP3Xev4v1LCQIwvy7OXZlep2Hi/the-tom-behind-tom-brady
