Tom Brady hanging up his pads

[shape]

Coming from a Bills fan, he go’s down as the best football player in history (I would never say that aloud here in western NY). But everyone knows that. Frankly it was an honor to watch him, I’m not that deep, but as far as I know, he was a class act off the field also.

Or maybe not?

"Tom Brady Sr. told KRON-TV in the Bay Area that his son was not retiring and that the rumor was "unsubstantiated.""

I'm thinking he wants to go out on a winning season.  For Brady, that means another Superbowl win.  We'll see.

not official just rumors as of now.  He cannot retire BEFORE was it either Feb. 2nd or 5th since if he retires before then he will be out 15 million dollars.  We all know he cannot live without getting that as well as all the millions his hot wife made modeling. 

I think he will retire only age 44 but yes,  he is not a bad QB both on and off the field for the most part.  Not a huge fan of him being a 'pretty' boy and spoiled, but I guess I would be spoiled as well if I had 100 million or more between him and his wife at my disposal. 

Be interesting if he retires in February and AROD for the Packers goes to Tampa Bay,  San Francisco, or the Denver Broncos.  I highly doubt the Packers can afford to pay AROD along with his 'go to always' guy Davante Adams wide receiver also demanding big bucks.  If the Packers can keep Adams, then AROD will stay in Green Bay for 1 more year since I think is still his best shot in Green Bay to win a SuperBowl, assuming AROD does not play the worst game of his NFL career like he just did against the 49ers.  It was a pathetic showing for all that day besides the surprising good,  usually mediocre,  defense GB had over the 49ers so-so offense.
