Football

That saying is, you retire from the game, or eventually the game retires you.

I'm afraid Brady is going to end up becoming one of those players that's in the latter. There's a lot me that think he's not leaving the game and will only leave if he suffers a major injury like Drew Brees did last year. As a performance specialist told me earlier this year, 44 year old tissue still heals like 44 year old tissue no matter how much avocado ice cream (referencing Brady's TB12 regimen) you consume.

What I'm hoping is he goes to one final Super Bowl with the Bucs, wins, and then retires on top like Peyton Manning. I don't want to see him continue to play if his performance begins to diminish to the point such that (to borrow Joe DiMaggio's quote) "If he can't do it right, I don't want him to play any longer".
