Tom Brady Retires (Update: Shouts out to Pats players, coaches on social media)

[VectorPrime]

I bet he was far more angry when it dawned on him that he couldn't go to the Orchids of Asia and get HJs any more.

Haha wow

Rob Parker can breathe in peace

yeah...sure glad Rob is free and clear of his racist bigotry toward Brady for the past 20 years...

Good. Sorry Kraft feels bad, but he enabled this situation. He could have just said "listen Brady gets extended and if it's one year too long, he's the one guy we are doing it for". He's the absolute last person I feel sympathy for. At least the fans who supported Brady that are caught in the middle I can "kinda" see the point. Kraft can't call a dude his other son forever, throw him to the wolves with deflategate, and then not have his back when he clearly wanted to retire here, and then get upset that he didn't get ball washed like Brady was some cheap massage parlor whore.

I bet they aren’t as devastated as you are.

Fauria and Zo are pissed. How could you not feel slighted having gone to war with this guy for years

Curran: Holster your indignation over Tom Brady retirement 'snub'

Tom Brady didn't thank Patriots fans in his farewell to the NFL on Tuesday, and people aren't happy. But our Tom E. Curran wants the locals to take a deep breath and consider a little perspective.

Kraft is a piece of garbage. Why defend him? “Laundry?” The guy had a escort-looking girlfriend before his wife’s body even went cold. Gimme a ****ing break. Tommy was the best and most likable thing about our football team and he was betrayed and stabbed in the back, first by Belichick and Kraft, and then by all the fans that decided they amazingly liked them better than ****ing Brady.

 

[TB12GOATQB]

The fact that Brady’s retirement announcement thread is 58 pages and 55 of them are debating whether what he did leaving our entire franchise out of his multi page goodbye letter was OK says it all. He effed up.

He? Says more about those on this forum, who before Saturday btw made any post about him be in an entirely separate forum.

Bill, Kraft, and all the It’s The Laundry fans cast aside Brady the moment he was shown the door and now want to demand ownership of how he should act. Nope, not how it works.

Everyone I talked to was saying the same thing today. Everyone. Talk radio calls were entirely about this topic....so it’s not just this forum. He spoiled this with his snub. The literal outcome is no one in NE is talking about his playing legacy in this moment.

I had 98.5 on for literally 8 straight hours and the vast majority of callers were on Brady’s side and they especially said Zo and Bertrand were being babies. Again, 8 straight hours from 10 to 6 which is their two main shows. Maybe all the babies call WEEI I wouldn’t know I don’t listen to them just like everyone else.

It's just odd. I wouldn't think Brady would stoop to that level even if the Patriots ****ted on him at the end. Maybe something else is planned specifically for the Patriots? BUT it feels ****ty as a Pats fan to see all Tom's retirement posts about the Bucs and mainly with the Bucs players and thanking them. I don't think he owe anyone a thank you, but if you're going to throw one out there to the Bucs....maybe you should also throw one out there to "that other" team you played for as well? Just seems a little petty if he didn't do it out of spite for how things ended IMO.

Kraft is only the best owner in the sport are you NUTS? HE saved this franchise from moving to St Louis and turned a franchise that was the joke of the NFL into one of the premiere franchises in Sports. I got news for you kid Kraft is not a saint he is a rich guy if I wanted a saint to run a franchise I would look for the Pope.

Very possibly something went awry with the entire thing. Brady always does some elaborate production for important stuff. But Schefter randomly scoops him on Saturday way ahead of whatever he intended and his people need to go into damage control as he spends an entire day during some vacation in Costa Rica calling his coaches and owner and gm? And then a day later just spits out a thing on Instagram almost as if “fu.ck it I have to say something now” as absolutely no one will give him peace.

Someone leaked it and if that someone was somehow tied to the Patriots it would explain everything.

 

[Noexcusesfornumber5]

He's allowed to make his retirement announcement his choice. When, Where, How. If it didn't leak to Shefter beforehand, we would not be discussing this. We would be waiting for what comes next as part of his own personal ,"retirement tour.". He allowed the info to leak to the media, he had to put a retirement statement out to protect "the brand", and underestimated the love New England fans still had for him. It's really that easy, loose lips sink ships.

Man it’s just a wonder why Brady isn’t interested in placating you.

WEEI features Scumbag Lou Goongoni, a Boston Globe paid agent as well as the lifelong Dolphin fan and Patriot hater,Ben Volin, the Globe's NFL reporter. John Henry despises Kraft.The Audacy Network centered in Philly controls EEI's programming. Complete friggin' stool pigeon scumbags, especially that punk Goonloni, the Splinter Gatherer..."Nomar!!! Nomar!! I did your underwear and got your mocha cappucino latte just the way you like it!". He's a Patriot hating azzole of the first order. Sorry if this offends any of you Scumloni adorers out there. Truth is truth. Wake up.
