Brady's Retirement Official Announcement

[steveringo]

Eight pages of Thank-You, and not one mention of the Patriots? Does that seem odd?

Very odd. Not to even acknowledge the fans in New England.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Well, he did acknowledge them and thanked everyone when he left New England, right? Does he need to do it again?

Also, maybe the Pats are gonna sign him to a 1 day deal so he can retire a Patriot? Who knows?

Also, who cares? Course that's a stupid question for me to ask. Obviously the Massholes, news stations looking for ratings/any form of Brady reporting, and everyone who hates Brady will.

I hope he retires a Buc.

He wouldn't be where he is today without Robert Kraft. That is bush league of Brady! Yes, he took pay cut after pay cut and it didn't end very well in New England but come on Brady, you're BETTER than that!

however, as @Sharkonabicycle said, he did Thank them when he initially left... I just thought with an official retirement "speech" he would at least mention Kraft

Not to sound deflating but maybe someone should start filming this thread...

Would love to see Andy Dalton go to Tampa and win a Super Bowl.

He retired from the Buccs and not NE , I'm sure he will do that in his HOF speech. I don't feel slighted at all as a NE fan, and know his relationship with Kraft is very special

Good to see that he did it the right way, unlike some guys who make their retirement announcement to upstage the HOF and the game itself.

Congrats to Tom on a great NFL career, unbelievable what he was all able to achieve.

Yeah good one way to think about it.

Then again I am not in the right frame of mind right now so I am overthinking everything

 

[Center Ice]

Still wondering what was behind the early announcement with Brady denying he made a decision though. Had to believe that Brady didn't know beforehand that that was going to happen.

At any rate. GOAT for sure. Same class as Gretzky, Woods and Jordan.

Clearly Brady hates the Patriots and their fans

Tom Brady ignores Patriots in retirement announcement

Conspicuously absent from Tom Brady’s retirement message is any mention of the Patriots.

Should have waited until after the SB to start all of this. I'm already sick of hearing about it when the focus should be on the teams still playing

Mehh who cares we got what we wanted and so did he. If he's bitter that's fine I don't really care.

Exactly, after the CCG's weekend and 2 weeks before SB, knowing next week is the crazy media weeks for the SB players

Well said. He just retired from his current team. It is their day.
My next anniversary I probably won't thank my ex wife.
