siddious Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 I don’t watch football but hard to ignore how legendary he is. What a career. im sure he’ll pick something new up right away.
Keirik Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 Legend. The best QB I can remember in the last 40+ years. To do it as often and so consistently really is impressive.
Ozzy Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 ...dude was magnificent! The best I've seen in my lifetime! Retired number in 3.....2.....1.....Go!

Sharpshooter Posted January 31, 2022 Posted January 31, 2022 Yeah, I'm going to wait to hear from Tom himself before I get emotional about it. Unless Gisele is really nagging him to come home, I can't see him retiring. Tampa Bay may lose some players, though, but still a good team, and he has plenty left in the tank.

Costa Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 ..and here comes the Brady hobknobbing. Oh he's the GOAT and what not. As long as the specter of Deflategate & Spygate loom, he will NEVER be the GOAT. For all we know that could just be the tip of the iceberg.

Athletes were cheating when they also knew it was hard to hide from cameras...You don't think they've been cheating for decades? It's a matter of who gets caught, not who cheated and didn't.

My point it should we let people shove the narrative that Brady is the GOAT down our throats and just accept it?? Edited February 1, 2022 by Costa

Well when you look at the records books and then you assume (because you have to) that everyone was cutting corners in their own way. When someone is that much better than everyone else, you don't just chuck it. I think there's probably a large amount of people who are hate that there are scandals because the Patriots didn't need to cheat, they almost always had the best talent.

Sharpshooter Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I'm pretty sure the deflate crap was debunked. Some of these things were done by the NFL themselves to dethrone the Patriots and try to end their dynasty because they don't like them and don't want dynasties in sports. Brady was suspended for four games for that bullshit, then won three of those games then he has an amazing postseason, including the epic comeback in the Super Bowl as a big fuck you to the NFL and Goodell. There's a reason he didn't shake that piece if crap's hand when receiving the Lombardi. He knows it. The Tom Brady revenge tour was one of his best seasons despite missing those four games. Thanks for the memories, Tom.

Ozzy Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 The guy's thrown for over 48 miles!!! I'm lucky I can even drive that far! LOL 1
Bieser Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Crazy to think he was drafted in the 6th round. 199 overall. I wonder if he ever would have gotten a shot if Bledsoe never got hurt. 1
Sharpshooter Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 He had one year left, so I was hoping he'd finish that off and play for one more. But, he doesn't really owe anybody anything at this point. He put the Patriots on the map, made them relevant and one of the most successful franchises in NFL history. I love this man.

He is literally the best there ever was.
Keirik Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Latest talk is he actually will come out of retirement and take the 49ers job after thry trade Garrapolo since Trey Lance isn’t really ready

Keirik Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Quote The first comes from the initial report that sparked the saga. In the aftermath of that game, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported that 11 of the 12 football used by the Patriots' offense during that game were underinflated by at least two pounds each. That information was ultimately proven to be false and a correction was eventually made in the initial report. In Playmakers, Florio reports that the source of that incorrect information was NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/new-deflategate-revelations-paint-the-nfl-in-a-bad-light-during-infamous-saga-with-tom-brady-and-patriots/ Brady didn’t even cheat anyway. Ideal Gas Law and misinformation.
