Tom Brady’s personal emails

■ Assistant US attorney Eric Christofferson said Brady was “amazingly calm” during his January news conference. He also said the media’s handling of the initial news was “absurd.”

■ Brady asked for two different projects about his net worth, though details were redacted:

■ He planned a dinner with Canucks owner Francesco Aquilini, who also arranged for Brady to speak to some of his players:

Brady is friends with the Canucks owner, and was invited to speak to a small group of players about sports science when team came to Boston

Brady agreed to speak to the players and in exchange asked Aquilini to make a donation to his foundation.

Apparently the Sedin Twins, 35, wanted to hear Brady's secrets to keeping his body young

The thing Brady wanted kept private, BTW, was a meeting he and his body coach Alex Guerrero had with a few members of the Vancouver Canucks

■ Brady doesn’t want to write a book until well after his career is over:

■ He went on the hunt for some new Tom Ford duds:

■ Other email tidbits:

Dozens and dozens of pages of emails from Josh McDaniels to Brady detailing game plans, opponent tendencies, etc. All redacted. Too bad

Interesting -- Ted Wells testified that Brady wouldn't allow the NFLPA to sit in on his interview. Only his agents and #Patriots attorneys

Wells said he tried to work with Brady and Yee and didn't want to have to label them as non-cooperative pic.twitter.com/WIJMhawxX8
