Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Although this whole waiting game could be that he wants the Bucs to release him so that he can "one-day-contract" with the Patriots, then retire...

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I keep hoping one of these "snafus" will result in the end of the "report rumors from sources as facts" sports media. Hasn't happened yet.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Brady has been sounding like retirement since October-November. He MAY have one more season left in him, but this isn’t a surprise.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
That’s the point. He wants to at least be just a Dad during their high school years. When Brady mentioned regretting missing time with his kids I knew the end was near. That’s not his love for the game going away or his ability. It’s his love for his family winning out after 20 years.
I can’t blame the man at all.
Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Dammit Tom! Couldn’t you be like 95% of NFL players and not care about your kids!?

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Arians is a big family man and once said that no player should miss a recital or kid game or anything or he'll cut their ass. Family is too important.
Given two years here I'm sure Brady has gotten all the accommodations he's asked for and we'd give him any others he'd like. The issue is that Brady himself is too much of a competitor and perfectionist who would never disrespect that game by not giving it 100%.
Brady is fighting his own demons on this one. I hope we can work something out where he feels he can be giving the most to his kids and to the game. At least for one more run.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Same here. I’m hoping for one more run is all. Just one. If not then thank you, Mr. Brady and enjoy your next phase of life.Doctor wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 6:13 pm Arians is a big family man and once said that no player should miss a recital or kid game or anything or he'll cut their ass.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
It's unfair, but I immediately thought of his wife when I read this.
I'm sure he wants to be there for his kids and her, and I'm sure there are business/personal aspects of post-football that excite him.
But I'm also sure he's thinking about what he did last season, thinking about how close he was to pulling off one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history (after which you know we DESTROY the 49ers, right?), and knowing that he'll have the next 40 years to not play football, but maybe one more year to compete.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Brady has constantly spoken to how finite football is and you can only do it during the window you have. It would probably be so much easier for him if his body or skills had fallen off the cliff last year. It must drive him insane that he's been and continues to be so healthy and so good so long. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I wonder if he's a little bit jealous of Ben Roethlisberger? Dude couldn't play anymore. The Steelers didn't want him back. He wasn't going to get a legit shot at a starting job anywhere else in the league. There wasn't a decision to make. The band played him right the hell off the stage, but he got to pretend it was up to him, and we all played along because it's the nice thing to do.Doctor wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 6:30 pm Brady has constantly spoken to how finite football is and you can only do it during the window you have.

The problem Brady has is, when he's 50 he'll still be better than Roethlisberger was last year. It'll never be that clear and obvious for him. He's too fit, and he's too smart, and he's too good.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Oh 100%
He's going to feel guilty either way. Guilty for wasting years he's been blessed with to play the game at a high level by retiring too early or guilty for missing time with his family. He's got two incredible blessings and he's going to have to take one for granted.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I am wondering if we are seeing Tom’s crypto trade commercial play out in real life.
Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I am wondering what his kids think... Daddy is super famous, and they all get to go to the games. I wonder if they want him to quit.
Tom may never turn into JAG, but at some point, he will find peace.

- Winton is a fa and should not cost much

- he knows Ba's system
- he has sat behind and learnt from one of the best in Brees
- Winston is highly motivated to prove his self
- etc
Personally, I would love this. The probability of this happening is about 8% but it is not 0%.
How would you guys feel about this?
Do you think the front office will at least consider this as an option?

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I suspect Brady was going to keep his mouth shut until after the Super Bowl.

My thought too. Then some cretin close to him sold the story to the press.Terry Tate wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 9:44 pm I suspect Brady was going to keep his mouth shut until after the Super Bowl.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
So now the question is does this change the plan to retire or does it motivate him to not do that. This mess is really confusing at this point.Terry Tate wrote: ↑Sat Jan 29, 2022 9:44 pm I suspect Brady was going to keep his mouth shut until after the Super Bowl.

@PetePierson let's stop with the foreplay. I'm down for all of it. My holes inside of your holes, the whole nine yards. Give me a night of passion I'll never forget, you filthy animal.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
I pictured him requesting a trade to Miami to win a Superbowl for them. He helps himself (chunk of money/real estate deals), he helps us (draft picks) and he helps Miami do a run for the Title.
Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
You're not wrong. If everyone agreed to not pay attention to these unattributed "sources say" stories, they'd go away. But that'll never happen, especially not in the age of Twitter, when everyone can play at being a journalist (especially professional journalists.)

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Can someone post a gif of the undertaker getting back up when Brady says he’s coming back.
Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Have we tried offering Brady a deal where he can come in on Sundays an hour before each game?
Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Oh Croc, his company? Deleting tweets?
Sounds like an intern running a social media page who probably won’t be running it anymore.
I’m all for being the first to report something, when you’re confirmed… but this is a joke. Brady has said he’d take his time and not even a week later. Maybe he does retire,maybe he doesn’t. I’m dumb for being skeptical of an online report though… got it.

Re: Tom Brady: Undecided
Like Gronk said… if he was forced to pick a decision right now after the long haul of a season, drain of the playoff loss, knowing there will be losses, drama of AB, media hounding him, Gisele pounding his ass about fully retiring so he can be a dad(biggest cop out of all NFL players imo) he’d probably lean towards retiring.Crocaneers wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 10:20 amGotta admit .. you very well could have been one of maybe five that didn't believe it .. and between Shefty and TB12 Admin, things don't look good ..BJJ34 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 9:54 am

He said he’d take his time. I truly believe we won’t hear from Brady until after the Super Bowl maybe three weeks after too. He needs time to get his mind set and think about his own brand. Coming back at 45 means something to him(he’s said it before). 8 super bowls may or may not. He can still sling it… that’s also something he has talked about. A “retirement tour” may not interest him… but every year for the last half decade the media was writing him off.
