Brady Lands On Most Influential Men of 2011

BOSTON (CBS) - Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has out done everyone in the NFL.

He's even outdone the likes of Simon Cowell, Justin Timberlake and Larry David. How you ask?

Brady is the only football player to make the list. New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees made the list last year but since has fallen of the list.

Brady's MVP numbers and overall stature in the league landed him his spot on the list, and I'm sure the fact that he could make Uggs look manly helped.

Here's the full list:

1.   Steve Jobs

2.   Seal Team Six

3.   Larry Page

4.   Warren Buffet

5.   Kanye West

6.   Mohamed Bouazizi

7.   Prince William
