Oh, Oh.......Problem's Brewing

[BigKen]

Well, TB was in Brazil late last week and flew into New York with his son on Saturday. He disappeared and wasn't seen at all which led to speculation that he'd be at camp yesterday. He still hasn't been seen in public. He wasn't in camp today.

Gronk's contract cannot be redone until 5/24. That's when it was done last year and must stay in force for one full year. He's expected to be in camp Thursday.

Belichick got snappy with the media today when he was asked why Brady wasn't in camp. "I only talk about players who are here!!" But he doesn't do that much either.

Go talk to your family
(and get the fuck out of here!)

I thought I might have been the only one too feel that way! Bravo Southie!

Etling is getting way more reps than he normally would. In my opinion, this is BB's way of sending a message to Brady that there are other QBs in camp and if he's not here, then they will get his reps.

Maybe Brady got an strain doing the TB12 method and he doesn't want anybody to know?????

SO..apparently Gronk and Brady were in Foxboro yesterday, at Alex G place getting treatment while the rest of the team was at OTA's.

So either two things are happening:
1-Gronk and Brady are showing up BB....
2-TB had some type of injury that we don't know about and is still recovering from it and all is well, and Gronk is waiting for his new extension.

How funny would it be if come the start of mini camp and reg camp if Brady didn't get 1st team reps? Sort of BB saying "you should have been here". IF TB is hurt or recovering from something, would be nice to know.

Maybe Mr. and Mrs. Brady have an agreement that he take the spring off if he wants to keep playing.

Compromises for the benefit of the family.

What's with the hostility?

Sorry, this sort of well-reasoned, clear-minded thoughtfulness is not allowed. Please commence stroking out that the team is in a death spiral post-haste.

My bad...

Brady is just trying to torpedo the organization.
He's been forming this plan ever since Milloy was sent packing.

Good for him.

#Patriots owner Robert Kraft says that he’s been in communication with Tom Brady. “These are voluntary workouts... I think he’s in great shape. I think he’s at an age where he’s blessed to have 3 children, has responsibilities. It’s hard to fulfill those during the season.

And I think this it what it's all about. Jeepers it's not like TB needs the reps! Let him be with his family as long as logic allows. We all know once he commits it will be a full on commitment. I don't even think he get's laid during the season.

Kraft: Brady will attend Pats' mandatory camp

 

[BigKen]

I don't even think he get's laid during the season.

That's taking team commitment way too far if Giselle is your partner. I'd at least be asking her if she'd like to do something every day, regardless. I may have been born at night, but not last night.

 

[Shoeshine Boy]

You could build a pretty sweet team with guys that are skipping OTA's right now...Brady, Gronk, Le'Veon Bell, Aaron Donald, Julio Jones, Zack Martin, Carlos Dunlap, Khalil Mack, Earl Thomas...

 

[Cyder]

Yep, New England is in big....big trouble. They might only win 12 games.

And the rift in New England continues....

Well that was a grand exaggeration on my part, but I think we all know full well how much he does commit to his craft, the Krafts and this team.

Until he skips a voluntary workout, then it's "fuck that guy!"

My thoughts exactly.
