Transcendent players are so few. Brady is a once in a lifetime talent. We all got to enjoy him in borrowed time. Can't ask for more than that.

+1 agree but I am glad he is retiring so it gives other teams a chance to win.

Not that my team will ever win

If this were baseball, wouldn't people be making all sorts of PED assumptions if someone was still playing at a very high level at 44?

I'm sure there are more than a few members here who are working on increasingly zany conspiracy theories for how he was using all this time but never tested positive.

Well, Edelman who worked with Brady's personal and very controversial trainer was suspended for PEDs, right?
