    Wish the GOAT would go win a SB in San Francisco.

    And I really hope Trask gets a real opportunity.

    The best ever and a sad day. Will miss competitors like him. Pretty special watching Nolan Ryan and Tom Brady do their thing well into their 40’s. Will miss Brady.

    In my opinion, you have to go out on top to be the GOAT. I understand that was what he was trying to do, and if he had retired after the 2020 Super Bowl, there would be no question.

    That Fox contract is a sweet transition into retirement.

    Yes, which is why I also disqualify Michael Jordan from being GOAT in the NBA :confused:

    Beyond ridiculous. It’s not even debatable.

    Since his refusal to retire was the public reason for them splitting up, and then after she splits from him he retires, I have to wonder if he played this year just to make sure she would leave. I admit, that’s probably a little too conspiratorial and cynical.

    Wowzer!

    “It's believed that Brady will now transition to the broadcast booth with FOX Sports, with a reported ten-year, $375million contract waiting for him.”

    Off the top of my head, Barry Sanders. Arguable to any extent, of course, whether he was ever the greatest or still the greatest when he retired.

    I hope this was tongue in cheek. Olsen and Burkhardt are cheesy AF.

    He is going out on top. Who else in the league has a $375 million contract?
