I'm not debating the merits of his career on the field.....but I would have flipped him the byrd as he was trying to orchestrate his way out of that contract. At least Brady had the balls to negotiate his way out in good faith and was always entirely aboveboard about his plans for the future. Gronk cried a like a little bitch about how broken he was, and how terrified he was of the toll that the game exacted on him...then one year later...what, Brady is in TB?
I'm all better-
