When Tom Brady's FA Contract Year came up, Tom Brady not only resigned with the Patriots, it wasn't just a given to most, but Brady resigned for less than we all thought. He gave back to the orginization, he wanted to win.
Well 2006, New England, has some of the most competitive players in the game, they are still contenders (mind you they play Denver again without getting to Plummer and his Pee-Wee Football Skills not College, not Professional, we call it V-I-C-K!) and they only have time to grow together.
But isn't that the problem,Growing Together? Isn't that what Brady silently screams, isn't that what takes the giddy up the next go around when Brady brings out the Offense for another somewhat fresh set of downs. Growing together with his recievers should not be the value you've invested to your face player, your leader, your savior.
For someone who gives and gives, you should finally have given back, and resigned his go-to players, Deion Branch & David Givens, released Tim Dwight and let go of Troy Brown (even though he is the most reliable player on the depth sheet) resigned more secondary which never happened in the draft instead of Chad Jackson.
Though Deion and David are in other areas of the football league, wishing for antoehr home and loving their new homes, Brady sits loyal, at home and under scruteny of the doubters now that the same people that praised Michael Vick as the greatest player ever to step into the NFL and comdemned us to a hellish FOX Sunday Football. Tommorrow will be better, maybe, maybe not, tommorrow never knows.
All I wish is that Brady was truly worth that value BB and Pioli thought he was and surround him with the people he grew to be consistent with. Thats the problem, not one player but a core of players that should have been and still been, not Willie or Adam, but a whole side of Offensive playmakers that co-existed.
 
I have no idea what you're trying to say.

Sorrounding should have been the key? What does that mean?

I'm not trying to make fun of you but I almost suspect English is your second language? That's fine. I just want you to take a little more time to express yourself.
 
Pretty easy to understand what he's saying.

It's cool. Not really worth restating, I feel much better getting the gibberish out.

I dont think many people know this, but Ive read that Brady is the highest paid QB this season. Everyone needs to stop proclaiming Brady to be god for giving the team a discount when in actuality he is getting paid $13.83 million this season. What a hometown discount!!

To be fair, there is truth on both sides. Yes, TB took less money than he could have got elsewhere. But TB did not take this giant hometown discount either. TB is getting paid very, very well. He left a little on the table however. And I think he is a stand up guy for that and other reasons.
 
Tom Brady got a VERY generous deal. It was hardly the huge hometown discount people are characterizing.

Brady signed a 6 year/60 millon deal and is due for 16 million this year (probably some bonus).
Carson Palmer is due for 30.7 million this year. Peyton Manning signed a 10 year/180 million deal and makes 10 million this year. Vick signed a 10 year/130 million deal and makes 18.4 million this year.

Brady could have played out his contract and gotten more from a different club IMHO.

I hear you.

(And isn't it ironic that most, but not all, can barely post in normal English? This post was fine in that department, but others seem to forget the shift and space keys exist.)
