So he wrecked his marriage for 1 crappy season? He should have just retired after winning his last Super Bowl for Tampa. At least he would have gone out on top.
Perhaps the one more year decision was for this very purpose. I have to wonder about any woman who divorces the children’s father because he plays football for another year. I don’t know all the facts, but playing another year of pro football is hardly reason for divorce....at least not in my books.
First thing I thought, also. Great minds....
IMO it was the other way around. He retired to save his marriage and quickly realized that it was over, and went back to what he loved doing.
Perhaps the marriage was already “wrecked”, which is why he decided to come back. Nobody knows what really happened.
Doubt he wrecked his marriage in last years....probably hasn’t been much there for many years. His 1st love is football and being GOAT-adored. She and kids have had a back-seat for many years.
He probably made some commitment to change all that and retire, but by un-retiring made the message clear: I and my football are first.
Wondering how deep and wide a person he can be with his incredible focus for all of these decades.......not saying....I don’t know. Only world he knows is pro football......
This past season was a trainwreck for him, both on the field and off the field. Though I think his marriage was already on the rocks regardless. I remember an incident a few years back when Brady was photographed with a MAGA hat in his locker (he was a Trump supporter). His wife was furious and he never mentioned Trump again. Being that henpecked is not good for a marriage. Now that he's free of her (and football), it will be interesting to see if he gets political again.
Like many, I stopped watching football a few years ago but always rooted for Brady to win. Just seems like a good guy all around.
“So he wrecked his marriage for 1 crappy season?“
My guess is that it was probably the other way around…
He took on 1 more season to get out of a crappy marriage.
Just a hunch tho..
He didn’t wreck anything, the marriage was already on the rocks. His ex wife is a 46 year old “model” so she’s already a mental case. The notion of a female model that age is preposterous given that beautiful 25 year olds are a dime a dozen. Her millions and contracts are simply irrational like fat Victoria’s secret “models”, a sign of the insanity of the times.
She wasn’t a wife - she was a middle aged feminist pretending to be a model. He’s better off out. A man in his prime with millions doesn’t need a wife.
