Does anyone like thinking about Montana as a Chief or Jordan as a Wizard? I don’t even think fans in those cities do. Tom should have went out like Bird, Bryant or the hated Jeter. I think that’s what bothers me most about this. Very few guys now have the chance to cement Hall of Fame careers with one city. Now Tom will always be a Patriot and (insert team here). It just doesn’t have the same ring. Hope it was worth it. I didn’t think it would happen but it was apparent a couple of months ago he seemed to be enjoying the attention a little too much. Didn’t come as much of a shock today. Oh well, I’m old enough to remember the pre BB era. We’ll survive. I love Tom but it’s always been about the city and the team for me. I’ll still sport my Hightower jersey with pride.
