I think he is, the reporting just jumped the gun and didn't let him do it at his own time in his own way.

Spectacular and what an outcome, I don't think anyone thought Nadal would ever win a Grand Slam event again, certainly other than the French. And from two sets down.

While I do think the game today suffers from infalted offensive numbers, I don't think we can deny his spot as the greatest QB to ever play. Seven Super Bowls, almost every passing record in the books, incredible longevity. I truly think he could've played another couple of seasons at a high level, but he wanted to go out on his own terms. Which I understand.

As a side note one has to wonder what QB's like Marino, Montana, Elway, or Unitas would do in this extreme passing offensive era of football. Discussion for another thread I suppose.

I noticed that too. I'm going to be optimistic and say maybe he left them off because he said his goodbyes two years ago? He doesn't seem like the type to snub anyone like that, but he's also too deliberate for that to have been an oversight.

Just remember, Gronk retired too. Brady might be playing with us.
