Tom Brady Retiring

Very good QB who attempted to intercept a nickname from the most Terrific of Toms calling it a day after 22 seasons.

To stipulate, I hate Tom Brady. But he's the best quarterback and possibly the best football player in NFL history. He led the league in passing yards and touchdowns this year at age 44.

Good

As a very sure NFL fan, wow there are some very big name quarterbacks calling it quits this year Rothlisberger being the best of course! Seriously though there are some dynasty teams coming up for some leaner years

He may not have been the best player ever, but I feel about Brady the way I felt about Chipper Jones. I respected his ability but disliked him for what he did against my team and the smirk on his face when he did it. Later

Is ESPN suspending all regular programming for the next week so as to have more time to analyze the ramifications this will have on the NFL, domestic tranquility, and Russian/Ukrainian peace?

That will depend on which teams win the playoff games tomorrow. But, you're right, they do need programming to fill the void created when both Brady's and Rogers' teams lost last week. Producer: "Hey, how is LeBron James doing this year?" Later

Forgot to say over the weekend, I won't miss him one bit. Are there calls yet to Gretzky him into Canton NOW!!! I could get behind that.

On his podcast ("Let's Go") Brady stated "I'm still going through the process" regarding his possible retirement. Brady is he is still looking at his options and hasn't decided about next year yet.

Tom Brady has unretired.

kcmets Mar 14 2022 04:21 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

Guess the guy that paid a half-million bucks for his final TD football is not a happy camper right now with Mr. Brady.

=G-Fafif post_id=86981 time=1647230191 user_id=55] Tom Brady has unretired.

Apparently he decided he wants to spend less time with his family.

I'm hoping he has a shitty season, just to tarnish his career. A lot of guys hung on one season too long, and I hope he's one of them.

Tom Brady has made his second annual retirement announcement.

Lefty Specialist Feb 01 2023 09:26 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

Retiring to spend more time with his family. Oh, wait.....

metsmarathon Feb 01 2023 09:38 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

welp, there goes the last guy in major sports who's older than me. again.

kcmets Feb 01 2023 09:52 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

Well between Bledsoe and Brady that's like a half a lifetime for me of rooting against a great Patriots QB. Am I remembering correctly that Brady got his first shot when Jets Mo Lewis pummeled Bledsoe? Not only did he hit him so hard that he was concussed but also suffered some internal bleeding and had to be rushed to the emergency room? Been a lot of years, my memory banks may be re-writing that football tale just a bit.

Centerfield Feb 01 2023 10:56 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

Was indifferent to Brady until I heard he was linked to MAGA. Then I hated him. Later he said, the Brady-Trump relationship was mischaracterized. https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/tom-brady-donald-trump-mischaracterized-relationship-patriots-buccaneers-nfl/ Anyway. As ceetar would say, meh.

MFS62 Feb 01 2023 11:15 AM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

Reminds me of a story a friend who worked at the Port Authority told me. A very nasty Vice President announced they were retiring. 200 people showed up at the retirement party - 4 to say good-bye and 196 to make sure the SOB was really leaving. From the comments above, I have a feeling several CPF-ers (myself included) would be among the 196 at Brady's farewell. Later

Brady also represents the last Montreal Expos draft pick still 'active'. A LH-hitting catcher in HS, Montreal selected him with their 18th round pick in 1995

Frayed Knot Feb 02 2023 02:14 PM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

I've been out of touch much of the afternoon. Is he still retired?

kcmets Feb 02 2023 02:30 PM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

I read somewhere that Daltrey and Townshend are coming out of retirement again and Brady is gonna tour with them on drums. The Who, with Brady!

Marshmallowmilkshake Feb 02 2023 02:49 PM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

I met him once, in the time between last U of M game and before he started his NFL career. He was nice to me and my son. Signed a photo of him in his U of M uniform. Glad to see he is able to go out on his terms, and not because of a career-ending injury.

Edgy MD Feb 02 2023 07:11 PM Re: Tom Brady Retiring

This is silly. It's not like Mike Brady is retiring. That would be some shit.

I don't recall whether Richard Nixon got this much press when he quit his job. Later
