Tom Brady Might Not Be Fully Retired

Image via NYPost

Nobody loves football more than Tom Brady, apparently. The guy literally can't stay away from the game for two seconds before he's pining for another return. 

Rich Eisen spoke about some of the rumors he heard at the NFL Combine over the weekend, one of which involved Tom Brady possibly returning to the NFL in 2023 and heading to the Dolphins. 

On his show, Rich Eisen said that "Tom Brady may not be done after all. A couple people were like 'just hang on, just you wait'." He then went on to reveal that the team to watch in all this is the Miami Dolphins. It's not like this is some wildcard mongering for a clickbait headline, it's Rich Eisen. He has a show on NFL Network, he doesn't have to rely on cheap tricks. He doesn't peddle in the business of bullshit, and even if this never comes to fruition, the fact we're talking about it is insane.

It's all conjecture at this point and there are lots of factors to suss out with Tua (i.e. will he ever play again?) but I had a weird feeling deep in my plums that this wasn't really the end. I said I was skeptical before and here we are speculating just over a month into his "retirement". 

Is it that crazy, though? He does live in Florida, the Dolphins are close by and he'd get to throw deep posts to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. I'll admit, that does sound kinda nice. It might actually be a perfect fit. 

Totally unrelated: Has anyone heard from Gronk? Might there a possible reunion in the works there? Stay tuned for the next entry of this never-ending saga.

The Pete Weber Celebration Breakdown

Image
Originally written 10/31/19 Close your eyes and picture this, if you will. What's the single most memorable, prolific sports celebration that pops into your head? Any sport, any athlete, any era. What was it for you? Maybe it was Tiger Woods on the 16th hole, jarring a chip from off the back of the green in the final round of the 2005 Masters. Perhaps you’re envisioning Brandi Chastain celebrating shirtless after netting the penalty kick to win the 1999 World Cup. Or maybe it's Michael Jordan elevating over Craig Ehlo, hanging in the atmosphere for an immaculate split second, then draining the game winner and unloading several emphatic fist pumps. You can open your eyes now. I’m sorry to inform you that whatever you just pictured in your head is incorrect, and also stupid. The greatest sports celebration that ever was didn’t take place on a field, nor a pitch, nor a court. No, the greatest celebration ever went down on a bowling alley. It all unfolded and history was made on...

FFB Week 10: Twelve Takeaways

Image
WELCOME BACK.  Another Wednesday, Twelve more Takeaways from this past week's action.  Alright, that's enough small-talk. Let's ride.  1. We had ourselves a good, old-fashioned Thursday night Ja'Marr Chase points explosion. More like a pants explosion for people that started him, am I right?  Anyways, it was a night to remember for Ja'Marr Chase fantasy owners as he more or less won a good portion of the matchups he was a part of before they got started. The feeling of dread for folks that were going against him and didn't check the box score until the next morning is the stuff of fantasy nightmares.  Chase caught 11 passes for 264 yards and 3 touchdowns in the contest putting up 49.90 fantasy points in half-PPR leagues, a performance for the ages.  Somehow, the Bengals lost the game and fell to 4-6, BUT if you're a fan of bargain buys they're +130 to make the playoffs and Joe Burrow is in God-mode with two straight QB1 finishes.  After going nuclear t...

A Celebration Of The 2001 Creed Super Bowl Halftime Show

Image
A Frame by Frame Celebration of: "The Halftime Show" by Creed That's right, folks. We're taking it back to the year 2001 and Creed had just blessed the music community with their third studio album, Weathered.  This album was the springboard that catapulted them into the epicenter of the early 2000's rock storm alongside other juggernauts such as Nickelback, Staind, and Hoobastank. Naturally, they were a top choice for the NFL's Thanksgiving halftime show and to say they delivered would be a gross understatement. Let me give a little background before we start dissecting the footage. This particular halftime show took place on November 22nd, 2001 - roughly two months after 9/11 and two days after Weathered had been released. What better way to honor America and promote the new album than to turn the amps up to 11 and melt the collective faces of NFL fans across the country? As if Creed shredding wasn't metal enough, the accompanying acts propelled this i...
