    Yuge news. You can dump any other news behind that and no one would notice.
    Cough Calhoun Cough.

    I'm going to miss the goat after not liking the Patriots and what they've done to ever organization on the field and off the field.
    May you have 12 more babies.

    Tom is really old and Tampa Bay has peaked so no surprise... but if the Bucs have another run Aaron Rodgers might be a perfect fit.

    My first thought was how Brady made a slow steady climb to greatest of all time. Even after three supes the debate around here was that he wasn't even close to the best qb ever. 84k yards later ( yes, 84 fkin k not including 12k in the playoffs alone ) and 7 Superbowls he is the unquestioned king. What a run.

    Looking at TB's career again it took him 22 years to play in only 10 superbowls -- the dude is more overrated than Larry Bird TBH.

    Crazy that he led the league in both yards and TDs this year at 44 yrs old.

    Checked his stats a few days ago... besides his rookie season and the broken leg season he missed only 5 games his entire career --- four of those were the Deflate Gate suspension

    This season he had his career highs -- by far -- in pass attempts, completions, and yards..... all led the league. Also led in TDs

    Great timing Tom & friends: now we've got "will he or won't he" overshadowing Championship Game Sunday

    I'd like this to be pulling an "Easterby" power move, but on TB world strength level. He can't lose either way

    Good for him but Patrick Mahomes is on pace to catch him or surpasses him.

    Mahomes will definitely be 44 one day -- with modern medicine he might see 60+ you just never know.

    Hell, Tom Brady might decide to come back in 15 years and show that he's every bit as good as ever.
