Last time Brady skipped the off season workouts, he got injured early on and was out of the season....and he was younger then. These days he would get crushed and lose a knee or, even worse, a hip.
And, unless he was totally insane, Brady would not come back to the Patriots and try to play behind a turnstile of an OL with no receivers (except Pop) to throw to. The Patriots are, at least right now, the junior varsity of the NFL after a pathetic off season. Unless we are visited by a draft-day miracle, the Patriots are confined to the basement for the foreseeable future.
It we want to talk crazy talk, it is more likely that BB comes back to the Patriots (please, please), if they can just fire the elderly owner....but that will not happen, at least not this year, but, as it stands, Mayo will be the fall guy after another disastrous season and there will be a job opening next January.
BTW, I am sure I am making a lot of friends at Gillette these days
