Crappy Quarterbacks Want Their Dollarsback

Posted Aug 26th 2008 2:06PM by TMZ Staff

The guy who helped Tom Brady become Gisele's bitch wants to make a major Swiss bank his bitch.

Drew Bledsoe -- forever famous for relinquishing his job to Tom Brady in 2001 and never getting it back -- says UBS swindled him out of a wad of cash. Here's why: Drew says he invested a bundle in a company called Pay by Touch through UBS, but the bank concealed the criminal past of John Rogers, the founder of Pay by Touch. Rogers raised $130 mil from investors -- but made a grand total of $700K.

Here's the funniest part, though: Drew's co-plaintiffs are a hilariously C-list group of NFL QB failures, including Rick Mirer, Craig Nall, and Alex Van Pelt. No wonder they're gunnin' so hard for UBS' dough.

UBS didn't have any comment.

16. I see some pretty successful people there. In fact, I looked up the stats of Craig Nall (one of the least recognizable names on the list) and although he was stuck behind Brett Favre for a while he has been impressive whenever he's played. Probably just a matter of time before he is playing for somebody. I also googled and saw that he had a "strong" workout for the Lions, but they took Drew Henson of Michigan, hardly a surprise. NFL stats for Nall. 30 of 48 (62.5%), 402 yards,5 TDs and 0 ints., 123.8 QB rating. Looks like 5 or 6 appearances here and there. Not a bad outing in the bunch. My guess is that he's on speed dial of a few GMs. He probably won't be a C-list journalist anytime soon.

17. You guys call yourselves journalists? Do your homework. Bledsoe was a pro bowl QB many times prior to losing his job to Brady. In addition, he went on to play for other teams. He has made millions upon millions of dollars. Putting him in the same class as those other backup is erroneous and shows you all have no idea what your talking about. You make stuff up so that the people who don't follow football believe you. Morons

20. I remember Drew playing TWO games and one game being a playoff victory against Miami in January @ Foxboro Stadium with A METAL PIN COMING OUT OF HIS PINKY FINGER ON HIS THROWING HAND!!!!Saying that Bledsoe is a C-List quarterback is a VERY UNINFORMED understanding of football!
