Tom Brady has seemingly taken a swipe at his supermodel ex-wife Gisele Bundchen in his latest newsletter about providing for his family.
The NFL great, a seven-time Super Bowl winner, split from his wife of 13 years in October 2023, months after dramatically reversing his decision to retire from football.
After their split was announced, Bundchen repeatedly alluded to her unhappiness at how much Brady focused on his sporting career at the cost of his family, with his unretirement said to be the tipping point.
Now, in a newsletter Brady has recently started writing to his fans, the 47-year-old has said that he viewed his career as a central part of being a good father to his three children.
'I think part of being a great father is being a great example of doing what it takes to take care of your family,' Brady wrote. 'I chose to do it by playing football.'
He continued: 'My dedication to the sport, the hours of practice, the moments when I was laser focused - those were times when I believe I was doing the best possible thing for my family and my kids, by prioritizing my profession and teaching, by example, what it takes to be really good at your job, what it takes to follow through on commitments, what it takes to be a great teammate; and showing them, also by example, that work is a big part of all of our lives.'

“ Women: Why don’t men work and support families like they used to?
Also women: Why does my husband work so much?”

Here’s the old joke about the guy who has been so good that God comes to him and says that he will grant him any wish he wants. The guy says that he wants a bridge built from LA to Hawaii. God says, “you know, I could certainly build that for you, but I’d like you to think about how much in the way of natural resources that would use, and the pollution it would cause to build the thing. I’d urge you to ask for something else instead.” so the guy says, “OK, then I’d like you to imbue me with perfect knowledge of how women think.” God says, “would you like that bridge to be two lanes or four?“
Yeah, nobody knows what women want or how they think, most especially women themselves.
By the way, I am not putting on a flame retardant suit. I’m not afraid of anything, I’m already married.
What’s that old saying? “No matter how beautiful and perfect you think any woman is, some guy dumped her because he was sick of her shit.“
nope. he did as he saw fit, not as maybe the kids actually needed like a hands on dad. most kids don’t need lots of money and stuff they need quality time and to know dad is really listening etc to family needs, not just what he says goes.
Y’all are forgetting the hours and hours he doubtless spent either training, practicing, or reviewing game film every day, every week.
Yeah, filing for divorce, breaking up the family, taking the kids away from their pa, and financially enslaving the man, and having a fling with the poolboy is a great way to "hold the family together."

If I may, not trying to flame you in any way, shape, or form; but in my humble opinion, BRADY also left a LOT of $$money$$ on the table so to speak, because he knew he needed top shelf players around him, no one seems to mention this. I thought I would just throw my two cents into the conversation.
Except that’s not what happened. In reality, he’s a drunkard that can’t keep a job, wrecked all the cars,frightens the children when he rages about how unfair life is and got handsy with somebody else’s wife at the block party.
And he had the audacity to tell the judge that his wife and kids should go live in an apartment because he needed the house with the fenced yard for his hunting dog.
She’s not really all that great looking either, IMO.
I know, and you are correct.
He gave back a portion of his salary in a ‘restructuring’ of his contract so that the Patriots could stay under the Salary Cap, and hire some top Free Agent talent.
Later on, when he was nearing the end of his career, he asked or it back and they said no.
That is one reason he left them, the ungrateful bastards.
I’m no Brady Fan, but I won’t blame him for that!..............
Net worth:
Tom: $300 Million

“I love and care for Tom so much I’m going to divorce him.”
