Tom Brady loses coach, others may benefit

The Baltimore Sun | Meredith Cohn

Tom Martinez, longtime personal coach to New England Patriot Quarterback Tom Brady was slated to come to Johns Hopkins Hospital for a life-saving kidney transplant in coming months. But the Associated Press reported today that he died.

The story says he had a heart attack after a dialysis treatment.

But the publicity drummed up by Brady may mean others get the kidney they need.
