I think you have enough for your dissertation, so you can get that masters in BS you've always wanted.I think we're in Occam's Razor territory: you're relying on multiple unsubstantiated theories to make your case, whereas the obvious one is right there for the taking.
In particular at (4) you're relying on undocumented, unnamed issues rather than going with what I've documented via linked articles as Tom unilaterally going back on his word to retire which does follow the pattern of him putting football ahead of family, something she has been quoted as a concern of hers going back to 2020.
Of course the links are gossip but still they are not being contradicted and we know both sides have plenty of ways to get things out via the media.
Rumors are that she has been threatening divorce since 2015.I guess you are believing what you want to believe, because we now have multiple reports saying Tom is the one who is hurt and is trying to salvage the marriage while she's the one saying "screw it".
Losses to KC and GB suggest they are a good but not great team this season.He actually thought the Bucs were going to be a great team and did not want to leave a super bowl "on the field" by retiring. So far 7 TDs through 5 games...

Tom may go 0-2 on rings this season.
Different time, different world.Very sad.
Kinda makes me think about the "Facing Nolan Ryan" documentary on Netflix and how kinda-sorta similar - but different their situations are/were.
Ryan pitched till he was 45. His wife of 53 years, Ruth (extremely competitive in her own right) supported him every step of the way never gave him **** for pitching to his advanced (professional) age- even though she saw him soaking his elbow, shoulder surgery, going to chiro, etc.
I'm sure they had problems (as all married couples do) but plowed through them.
I believe she was content being a stay at home mom but also had her own identity (foundations, etc). She was OK with her husband doing what he loved no matter what he did to his body. Plus he was still damn good.
Not sure what Gisele's issue is. It's not like she gave up her modeling career for him. She was past her prime and was/is still building her empire. She hasn't stopped that b/c of Tom's career.
Is it fair of her to ask Tom to give up something he loves just because she wants him the "be present more"? I don't think so. It's not like hes an alchie or has a gambling habit.
Ruth Ryan didn't ask that of her husband.
Hopefully Tom and Gis can reconcile but without knowing anything about them seems like a long shot.
Are you really this stupid? He turned a loser franchise into a Super Bowl champion in his first season as the starter. He won 3 of 4 Super Bowls to start his career... twice Super Bowl MVP. He led the NFL in passing TDs in 2002 and finished 3rd in MVP voting in 2003. Brady was a hall of famer by the conclusion of 2004. Yet "he didn't become elite until 2007"?... that's an incredibly dumb take, even for you.Sorry, he did not make first team all pro from 2001-2006, which is a yearly award. Him being all decade does not disprove what I said. If anything it only underscores that Brady did not become elite until 2007.

If you're now throwing in 2005 then Brady had led the NFL in TDs and yards within his first 5 seasons. Unfortunately for you there's no discounting the postseason either. Game-winning drive and MVP in his first Super Bowl. Another game-winning drive (in a shoutout) and MVP in his second Super Bowl. 109.4 passer rating in his third postseason with another SB game-winning drive. He was elite by 2004. You don't discount that because he had the greatest single season ever for a quarterback in 2007.I suggest you look at Brady's stats from 2001-2006 again. And yes, he was a HOFer by 2004 but only because of the defense.

You're even "laughing" at Brady's 2007 season now? Why not just discredit him for the comeback against Atlanta in the Super Bowl while you're at it.I suggest we take this to another thread...and lol on the bolded part.
As posted earlier in this thread, your claims Brady was carried by the D is false and baseless. You lose again Timmy.I suggest you look at Brady's stats from 2001-2006 again. And yes, he was a HOFer by 2004 but only because of the defense. If he were elite, he would won a regular season MVP or been 1st team all pro during this period, which he never did. In 2003, Steve McNair got more MVP votes than him - did that make McNair elite?
In any event, I suggest we take this discussion to one of the other Brady threads so as to not continue to derail this one. We can talk about The Kicker (his new nickname after yesterday) there.

There's actually a study that measured testosterone levels based on days of abstaining from... getting there. It starts going up around day 6 and peaks on day 7 (~40% higher) and drops back to baseline day 9 and onward.I can't remember what player or coach told this story but he was saying how they'd pay hookers to visit their opponents hotel the night before a game. The "no sex before the game" was a real thing. The myth that it could effect performance the next day has been debunked but Tom Brady takes everything to the extreme.
BB thinks TB12 is elite? He's probably still calling him up saying that Johnny Foxborough High could come in and play better as a QB. Heck, he's still calling right now saying that last year's Foxborough QB could be a better husband to Gisele and father to his kids.Sorry, Bill himself said that Brady did not become elite until 2007. Brady did not even win an MVP until 2007 and was not even a MVP runner up from 2001-2006. Thankfully, hockey season is right around the corner for you and you can stop commenting on our sport.
Guilty!
But at least I'm #4 well behind Brandon, Tom & Prince Harry.
I blocked that troll months ago and the reading quality on this board jumped up exponentially.MAC10 is now psychoanalyzing Brady's marriage on a daily basis?
Amazing.
