Can't be Real
My brain can’t compute the Tom Brady news. I am broken inside and refuse to believe this is real.

Jared Carrabis of Barstool Sports can't process the fact Brady will no longer be a member of the Patriots. How he's feeling is how most Patriots fans are feeling now because of what Brady has done during his time in New England.

NBA reporter Tom Habestroth points out Brady made the announcement on St. Patrick's Day. It's unclear if Brady meant to make the announcement on the holiday because with free agency starting on Wednesday afternoon, the legendary QB just wanted to put the speculation to rest.

This fan shared a video of Brady in his final game with the Patriots. Because he's still able to play at a high level, fans figured he was going to retire as a Patriot. However, Brady might want another challenge before he calls it a career.
prevnextJust Hurts
I've been watching Tom Brady play quarterback for the Patriots since I was six years old. I don't feel I'm being dramatic when I say seeing him every fall as been one of the biggest constants throughout my life.
This hurts. It really does.

This fan has been watching Brady as the Pats QB since he was young and no longer being part of the team is not an easy pill to swallow. What's going to be really strange is seeing Brady in another uniform because nobody thought that was going to happen.

My favorite line so far on the sadness of #TomBrady leaving the @Patriots: “Couldn’t they have stayed together two more years for the sake of the kids?”

It was a heck of a run.
This fan wanted Brady to stay so his kids could continue to live in New England. But in all seriousness, Brady had an unprecedented run and it's going to be hard for any player to match what he has done so far.
prevnextLighting in a Bottle
Remember how elated you were when your favorite team caught lightning in a bottle for that one game, or for that playoff run leading up to a big win?
Now imagine having that same feeling last for 2 decades. That's what it was like watching Tom Brady on the Patriots.

What Brady established in New England is what NFL teams thrive for. It's one thing to go on a run and win a Super Bowl, but Brady led the Patriots to nine Super Bowl appearances in his 20 seasons, winning six of them. There are teams that are still looking to reach their first Super Bowl in franchise history.

Patriots owner Robert Kraft wanted Brady to return to New England, but now that's not going to happen. Obviously, Brady didn't hit Kraft with this move, but it's safe to say Kraft is not very happy right now.
