Ok Pat’s fans time to have a quick discussion.
I want you to ignore the majority of sports radio for a moment. I have some very very sad news, news I should have put out back in February or January. Do not plan on Tom Brady being signed by the Patriots. If he is signed, which is unlikely to me, it will be because they use the franchise tag on him. With this screwed up agreement between the owners and players the next year or so, may apply to him in 2011. I will admit to not doing my homework on that end of things.
The issue is Brady wants to be the highest paid player / quarterback in all of Football. The cheap Kraft family wants him to take a home town discount. These two points of view will not find a middle ground. The Kraft family is famous for screwing players and not following thru on hand shake deals, on that just ask Curtis Martin and Bill Parcels.
So Patriot fans, be aware, you will start to hear how Tom Brady is not a team player and how slow he is starting to get, that is Patriot speak for “He wants too much money”. So enjoy 2010 folks, rebuilding is in your future for 2011.
Also the team leading in the club house for get Brady is the 49ers, remember you heard that here first.
