22 seasons, 365 games, 7 Super Bowl rings including 5 Super Bowl MVP awards and soooooo many phenomenal passes. What an amazing career!
I have quoted Theodore Roosevelt’s “Man in the Arena” speech since I saw it painted on our weight room wall at UM in 1995. It’s a constant reminder to ignore the noise, buckle my chinstrap, and battle through whatever comes my way.

On January 29th ESPN indicated that Tom Brady was retiring from the NFL, but there was no confirmation from Brady and his father denied the leak later that day. While Brady retiring after such a long and successful career is not necessarily surprising, it did seem odd that such a major announcement would come from anyone else other than Brady himself or his representatives. Plus, the timing of his retirement announcement coming just two weeks prior to the Super Bowl also seemed suspect. Will we never again see another Super Bowl with Tom Brady?
