Things we think we know:
So, IMHO this is just a lot of storm und drung derived from out of town jealousy and hatred of Brady, Belichick, Kraft, the Patriots and their deplorable fans.
- Brady is close to retirement - likely in 3 years or sooner
- Gisele wants him to stop playing before he gets a serious, life infringing injury
- Gisele's career in fashion dictates that she be closer to NYC or LA
- Tom's post football career most likely will be in media (commentary or lifestyle)
- They are selling their Boston mansion
- They still have a Back Bay apartment - which I am sure is damn nice
- They purchased a Greenwich mansion
- The new mansion will probably need to be redone to Tom/Gisele's needs/tastes
- They will not move into a home that is under construction - they like their privacy
- Renovations on the scale they want will take at least a year - perhaps longer
- Tom can easily live in the Back Bay apartment June-January in season
In other words, fake news.
I can legit fit about 10 of my houses in that
You have 10 houses? Not bad.
I don't see why he'd buy a home in Greenwich now while also trying to sell his Brookline house if he's planning to play another year. He just took $5 million off the Brookline asking price. I don't think he's looking to play for another team, but is planning to retire. I can't blame him for that nor not admitting to it and making it a major story and distraction.
That's why I wanted them to trade for another offensive weapon even if it meant using future cap space.
I don't think this is an inane controversy, but I hope I'm wrong.
Not to derail, but this is one of the things I hate most re: celebrities. They come to rural Canada (by plane) and bemoan the seal hunt, the carbon footprint, etc... Paul McCartney, stick to music. One of your concerts makes more of a negative impact than my entire life’s work.14,862 sq ft heating & cooling carbon footprint plus (Gasp!) acres of lawn!
Won’t stop Gisele from self-righteously telling people to participate in that lights-out thing.14,862 sq ft heating & cooling carbon footprint plus (Gasp!) acres of lawn!
What else is there to accomplish?
I live in Greenwich, back country mansions are anything but safe investments. He better be planning on staying here for the long term because he won't be able to sell that place for anything close to what he paid for it. I had heard he was buying on the water but I guess he chose back country insteadThey may have a school in mind for the kiddos.
Greenwich - virtually risk free guarantee, 1st class, ultra safe investment
Reinforces my already 99% belief- Tom will either retire, or play with Pats.
Good

Sorry for the detour,

I've come half circle.
