OTAs - TB absence thread

[Ring 6]

It won’t affect anything on the field. The optics of it, however, just look a little weird to me.

Why does it matter at all to you?

I think the optics of him kissing his son on the lips as he was shirtless getting a massage were worse.

Lmao, I feel bad for the significant other of anyone who sees Tom Brady wearing that shirt, and thinks it's weird of him or he's "whipped". Everything is being read into wayyyyy too hard at the moment.

Good word, I cannot wait for this season to start.

 

[TB12Maniac]

When did Tom lose his man card? He's wearing a shirt today on instagram that says "I love Gisele" and pink shorts.

i think it's safe to say that Gisele changed brady in a significant way........maybe Guerrero too

still seems like an overall great guy

but also a little less authentic.....bought into the "always be projecting an image of success and happiness" motto

just my hot take

your pal,

Cutie

He is whipped. The shirt is just the latest in a laundry list of examples one can point to there.

If I was banging Gisele, id wear a little pink skirt if she wanted me to

She's a Brazilian supermodel worth half a billion dollars... the rules change a bit when you're dealing with that caliber of chick

 

[Deus Irae]

Then you, my fellow Pats addict, are....no offense intended....a chump. Study hard, work hard and support yourself. Besides, that’s not relevant to a guy with $200M of his own who already got the girl. Keep those photos within the family, Tom.

There are many battles to be fought in any marriage where there is not a clear alpha. The occasional ****ty outfit to keep the spouse happy should not be one of them. A shirt saying you love your wife/husband should certainly not be one of them. The pink would have been a non-starter for me, but Tom's shown that his fashion tastes run much more metro than mine.

There is no doubt Tom has evolved as a person and shes had a major influence. Hell 27 years ago I chewed tobacco, spent 20hrs in the gym lifting weights, watched Ren and Stimpy and didn't like Jewish people.

Then I met Mrs RW (who is Jewish) stopped chewing, started long distance running and got hooked on Melrose Place.

You’re right, the rules change when we are talking about the GOAT QB and a supermodel.

But if we are being honest, we’d have to admit that if some regular guy with a regular wife was walking down the street in such an outfit, it would be something we would ridicule.

The optic to me is the look of a guy that understands nobody is happy if Mama isn't.
A guy that loves his wife...imagine that

This implies that you can’t love your significant other if you’re the one that wears the pants in the family. Brady is certainly not that one. He comes off as a guy that would close the fridge with his hips even if his hands aren’t full in pics like this and in the outfit he wore to the Met.

It takes a bit more than that to draw my ridicule, lol. I guess it's a generational thing but my first thought if I saw "some regular guy with a regular wife was walking down the street in such an outfit" if I gave it any consideration at all would probably be to wonder what he would have gotten if he had won the bet

I'm not sure either one really wears the pants. They kind of have this hippie free love type thing going on. Either way he certainly doesn't come off as Alpha.

Where you draw that implication from in what I posted defies me.
You can 'wear the pants' without being a knuckle dragger. I've been married for most of my adult life and been a guy's guy for all of it. For the most part I've found if something as insignificant as what I wear makes my redheaded wife content I'd be a fool not to consider the benefits of putting that smile on her face and governing myself accordingly. Understanding YMMV

 

[captain stone]

Oops...didn’t see that you beat me to it. My comment still stands, though.

Funny, I could see the instagram photo on your post, but not on TommyBrady 12's post. So thanks for posting it anyway.

 

[captain stone]

Gisele wanted Brady to retire, Brady did not want to, so to play without damaging his marriage they agreed that he would spend more time with her and the family during the offseason. It does not seem that outlandish to me.

Wasn't almost 4 straight months time enough?

Where you implied that he loves his wife and followed it up with “imagine that.” As if guys that wouldn’t do that, the alphas of the relationships, don’t love their significant others because they wouldn’t wear something that embarrassing nor would they dress like Siegfried & Roy at the Met Gala based on said wife’s request. And I have news for you, my friend, if you have to wear something like that for your wife to be happy...

1. You should ask yourself why you need to do something like that for her to be happy with you, and...

2. You’re not the alpha in your relationship. She’s just let you think you are.

Maybe. And as long as he’s happy then that’s all that matters. The problem comes when they put this stuff up for public consumption on social media. They opened themselves up for critique from the masses and I, well... I’m one critical mother ****er.

Make Gisele happy or be her slave?

Wearing a shirt that says I love (insert spouse’s name) as a joking sign of affection at home with the family….sure. Wearing a light yellow shirt with a plunging neck line and a cut that seems out of place in a men’s department, along with the bright pink shorts and then posting it on Instagram while flashing an excessively poop eating grin....cringe worthy. The moment I saw this, I knew that I would be receiving multiple texts today from friends who are fans of other NFL teams. In this case, I have no defense.
