Julie Brady Engagement

Julie Brady Engagement, If Red Sox Nation were ever to become some sort of New England sports kingdom then there is little doubt that the Brady brood would be the royal family. This status is only cemented by the latest matrimonial news from Massachusetts. According to the Boston Herald, Boston Red Sox star Kevin Youkilis is engaged to Julie Brady, sister of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

The two had been dating for at least a year, according to the Herald.

This will be Youkilis’ second engagement. The Red Sox infielder was married to Enza Sambataro in 2008 (although not legally), the ex-girlfriend of actor Ben Affleck. The couple split up two years later.

Surprisingly, this isn’t the first time that high-profile athletes have married into each other’s families. Green Bay Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk is married to the sister of Denver Broncos backup quarterback Brady Quinn, Laura (who’s famous for wearing a split jersey of the two when Hawk played for Ohio State and Quinn was at Notre Dame.)

Bud Light Platinum

Bud Light Platinum, This Bud Light Platinum review tells you what beer drinkers think about the newest Bud to hit the shelves. Bud Light Platinum beer was introduced during two 30-second commercials in the first quarter of the Super Bowl. The ads cost the company several million dollars, but they were a great way to showcase the new beer, which hit the shelves Jan. 30 in translucent blue glass.

Whether or not the neat new glass color is just a gimmick is yet to be determined, but the Anheuser-Busch/InBev beer is different from other Bud offerings. Ringing in at 6 percent alcohol by volume, Bud Light Platinum beer packs a bit more of a punch than most popular American beers, like Bud Light, which is 4.2 percent alcohol, and Budweiser, which is 5 percent.

The beer is not very light on the waistline, however, as it contains 137 calories, shaving only 8 calories off the 145 calories in a regular Budweiser, according to the Washington Post, while regular Bud Light has 110 calories per beer. Bud Light Platinum beer also costs about $1.50 more than normal Bud Light per six-pack, the Post reported.
