Tom Brady

[BigBill]

I read he's thinking about retiring from the Pats because of the sanctions put on him. Then it was said he's looking at playing for another team. I guess the whole deflate a gate is blamed on Tom.
They cheated before the Super Bowl but the Super Bowl played on. If there wasn't big money to be made on this game things would of stopped dead before the game. I could care less now it's all window dressing now and Toms the fall guy. I say let it go now and get on with the game no use running the Pats through the mud anymore. I'm not a big sports fan nor a fan of the Pats. I just feel enough is enough, let it go.

No flame intended there's other more important things in the world today.

I would take the money and retire before my body crapped out or I had irreparable brain damage.With what we know now,these guys are idiots if they stay in the game.

Even if he goes to another team the suspensions go with him.

The blame game when the ball got snapped i did not see Tom let the air out

I see Kurt Warner, AZ Cards., on a regular basis as we attend the same church. He has stated repeatedly that he's glad he retired when he did rather than trying to squeeze in one more. season. The punishment a quarterback takes during a full season is incredible.

BTW: I too think Brady got a bum rap.

He already negotiated his salary for this year down to something like a million, so the game suspension won't cost him that much (relatively speaking), then his salary goes back up next year to make up for it.

BTW: He got 4 game suspension, while the guys who were the ball handlers got sacked IIRC. Whether they did it at his direction or not, he had to know when throwing them they were under inflated.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen have been married for years. They don't just live together. They have kids.

She not only was probably the top-earning model; she has a line of beachwear in her native Brazil that makes her a fortune. I think she's from Rio Grande do Sul, one of the southern Brazilian states. I used to know which city; I forgot.

I read a couple of years ago that Tom has a personal fortune of some $125 million. Giselle is personally worth some $150 million. From posts here today, it seems that he has some $180 million, apparently from his football career. The couple is seemingly worth at LEAST $275 million. (However, singing can pay more than playing football. Taylor Swift reportedly earned $180 million just last year alone! Her VS model pals earn from just $5-8 million in most years. However, one is married to Adam Levine of Maroon 5, so they certainly don't have to eat at McDonald's!!)

Given the medical risks in playing football and the opportunity to retire and enjoy life with Giselle and the kids, I think I'd retire.

She is a very loyal wife, who was ridiculed by football fans and the press for defending Tom after teammates lost a game when he did his part well. When she's on talk shows, she just impresses me more all the time, although she was never my favorite supermodel. She has excellent English and probably speaks several other languages besides her native Brazilian Portuguese. That's common among the top models, who all appear professionally in several countries.

I don't like or respect most celebs, especially athletes. Many are just thugs, even felons. Tom Brady comes across better than most, and his wife seems a major asset to him and his children. She is a quite devoted mom.

I really don't see how he could avoid knowing the balls were underinflated, if enough to matter much. He'd sense it, unless so adrenalized by the game that he overlooked it or just didn't register what he was feeling in his hands due to the stress of the game. If you pick up a favorite pistol like a Colt .45 auto or a hi-cap magazine auto, don't you know if it's loaded, from how it feels? If that gun is a part of you, as it should be, you'd sense it being loaded.

Just how underinflated were those footballs?

Hard to have sympathy for an organization that systematically has been cheating the entire time the adulterer known as Bill Bellicheck has been coaching the Pats. As far as Tom and the rest goes, Tom new what was going on and why and he lied about it all. I can't tolerate lying.
