The regular season is a week away, but Tom Brady won't return to the field until he serves a four-game suspension for his role in the Deflategate silliness. Honestly, it's probably for the best; it will allow him another month to rest up, and even if the Patriots limp to, say, a 1-3 start, the AFC East is such a mess that he should have very little trouble leading New England to another division title. In the meantime, it looks like Brady is looking for ways to keep himself busy.

"Preoccupy your mind" is obviously code for "I've been binge-watching Saved by the Bell and I'm singlehandedly bringing back the Zack Morris. You're welcome."
As always, Twitter had jokes too:

Based on haircut, it appears Tom Brady will spend Sep. proving theorems as member of MIT's janitorial staff. pic.twitter.com/PGWzIJ6i0K
