I get asked if I’m related to Mike pretty regularly — although more when I’m in New England than when I’m home in Jacksonville — and tend to answer that he brings the potato salads to our reunions.

But, my family did come from the village of Circ, Czechoslovakia. Maybe we are all related?

My Grandpa is Mikes fathers brother wooo mouth full. Or family originated yes in Ohio and Allen town Pa. I met my cousin once at a family reunion but that was MANY years ago back in ohio state days. I have tried to get my grandpa or uncle George to set something up for me to meet him again. Never any luck, But it would make my day thats for sure.

I am actually family friends with the real mike vrabel and stumbled upon your page while looking up some of his stats. I was @ super bowl 36 in Houston when he caught that touchdown pass that you were talking about, and although my last name isn’t vrabel, i still shared in the same excitement. Do you live in Ohio? Whats your address, i’ll see if i cant get something sent to you. No promises.

Pats Fan

PS. My name, as it appears in this post is the play that was called by brady when mike checked in as pass eligible in the super bowl.

I am a Vrabel (by marriage) who lives in Ohio (where he grew up) and we have a son Mike who is around the same age and height as THE Mike Vrabel (although at least 100 lbs lighter). So When people ask if Mike Vrabel is any relation, I can honestly say he is my son. I did see on a geneaology site that if everyone who spells it ending in el is from the same family from the village of Circ, Czechoslovakia. Your V as in Victor also is a daily reality for me. Your writing is hilarious. Thanks.

Bradshaw = 5 (four from my uncle Terry, 1 from my cousin Ahmad)

Vrabel = 3

Better hope your son gets into football shape soon, because Mike Vrabel ain’t gettin’ any younger, but Cousin Ahmad just finished his rookie year.
