He should have stayed retired last yr. He lost his family and didn’t win a playoff game in this last season.

 

[DJ Spanky]

I hope that extra year was worth losing his wife and family.

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

I hope that extra year was worth losing his wife and family.

He played like crap too

 

[BeantownKnight]

Always go out on a high note.

Which, he didn't.

 

[MikeR0102]

I don’t believe him that he’s done

 

[DJ Spanky]

The ones who will suffer the most from his desire to play an extra year are his 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter.

[Zak57]

LOL I'm sure the kids will be ok. They're set for life without having to do a thing. One extra year of football is not a big deal.

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

I don’t believe him that he’s done

I can't wait to see what happens after training camp when the 49ers are waiting for Brock Purdy's elbow to heal and Lance to come back and be accurate.

 

[mdk02]

They're set for life without having to do a thing.

That doesn't always end happily

[Zak57]

That doesn't always end happily

And their dad playing football for an extra year won't change that regardless.

He certainly looked old and inept on the field, especially over the last several games, but maybe the marriage was already over. Veronika Rajek isn't a bad consolation prize.

 

[Caliknight]

I’d say her banging the guy in Costa Rica was a bigger issue than him playing one more year of football.

Guy is the greatest ever. Still lead the league in completions last year.

Brady. Jordan.that’s the list.

 

[Caliknight]

Always go out on a high note.

Which, he didn't.

He went out a lot higher than most any QB out there.

Mike Franscessa says he is going to retire for real this time.
J Lo says this engagement/wedding will last forever.
An athlete signs a huge contract with a crappy team and says "Its not about the money."

 

[ashokan]

He played like crap too

He finished third in all of NFL

He had 4700 yds, 25 TDs and 9 INTs
He did that with his All Pro LT out with injury
The Jets wish their QB played so crappy lol

[Caliknight]

Brady had a great year by everyone else’s standard but his.

 

[ashokan]

The Bucs were the problem

As soon as Arians and Brown had the stupid argument (and I blame Arians more) I knew the Bucs were over.

Losing Wurfs was another rock around the neck

 

[Caliknight]

Brady was great. The team sucked.

 

[RUschool]

Tom Brady has a massive contract $375 million/ 10 years waiting for him over at Fox Network as a broadcaster. Hope he gets back with his ex wife.

That is certainly one way to characterize the undisputed greatest football player of all time.

[WWHeisenberg]

I mean that's just funny....if you want to be technical, its all true

 

[rupittsburgh]

No Technically he has never been convicted of fraud. So he is not a fraudster. ALSO he lost the greatest most exciting Superbowl of all time to the Eagles. Everything else is true in the title.

 

[newell138]

OP seems jealous

 

[WWHeisenberg]

He's not convicted but he's going to be sued, that for sure..The title mentions only the Giants, but that doesn't make it untrue because the Eagles game isnt mentioned...Lastly its a joke fella...

[newell138]

don't get the hate on this guy. Easily the greatest QB to ever play the game. If it wasn't for a miracle escape by Manning followed by an incredible catch, that Pats team goes down as the greatest team of all time and puts the 72 Dolphins to bed as the only undefeated team

You can acknowledge him as a great and still not like the guy. I'm in that boat.

Don't really know him personally, so I just appreciate his career. What is it that you don't like about him? He puts his team's success first, thats the kind of guy I would want on my team and one of the reasons he has won so much.

Couldn't really tell you what it is.

that actually makes sense. Some people just annoy me for unknown reasons.

Kiss says that this will be their final farewell tour. The Who says hold my beer (remember watching their 1981 farewell tour on PPV).

 

[RUinPinehurst]

Now the focus will fall on Aaron Rodgers. We get to watch his implosion next season.

 

[Knight Shift]

I hope that extra year was worth losing his wife and family.

Maybe it was, at least for the wife. She seemed high maintenance (not talking about money, she had a lot of her own).

 

[LETSGORU91_]

And their dad playing football for an extra year won't change that regardless.

Not having a father around during/before puberty for a year won't change anything? I suppose fatherly advice, values, guidance, and support can always be obtained further down the road because that always works out really well. And if not, he can easily afford their therapy sessions. So he does have backup resources.

 

[RUPete]

Yeah, I think Giselle is worth more than him and he's got that Fox deal coming up. Also, none of us know if the marriage was already done before he chose to play another season.
