There were fans who were genuinely distraught over the 15-time Pro Bowl selection’s retirement, but there were also those who chose to not believe him. And why is that so?
Last year in the offseason, the future Hall of Famer announced his retirement on February 1 (same as today). However, it was only after forty days that Terrific Tom told the world that he will come back to the sport and had “unfinished business.” Many believed that the unfinished business meant winning the eighth Super Bowl. But he could not fulfill the dream. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers team barely crawled to the playoffs. There, the Dallas Cowboys dominated them.
Since then, many speculations and theories have come up as to where the dextrous player would play in the next season. But it seems like all the discussions were in vain because Brady finally announced his retirement “for good.”
Even though the video he uploaded on his Twitter timeline was emotional (Tom almost chokes while addressing everybody he loves), fans did not react to it sentimentally.
