Brady retires

 

It's not official, but I think he does.

Yeah I think family was a big part, but also the roster situation was really going to be murky for a long time…this off-season I mean

[Spanky99]

KC making it look easy.

 

Uhmm... Cincy turned a page!!!

You’re such a mush lol

[Spanky99]

This game ended up being epic, love it.

For good football? What's a mush, anyhow?

[Spanky99]

This game was/is awesome-sauce.

[Spanky99]

Bengals to the Bowl, lol... this is awesome!

Mush is a jinx. Meaning it seems every time you’re like “Team X is rolling”, they collapse

[Abomination]

I really dislike singers who try to make the anthem about them and not the country.

[connorp]

If the score held, when was the last time there was such a mediocre SB?

[Spanky99]

So Bengals @ Rams, who'd have f***ing called that?

Bengals and SF would’ve been hilarious. Was rooting for it just for that reason. But I guess the Rams make the game much more interesting

Wow, that's an interesting concept, said no one ever.

Meh, no difference to me.

How you have never heard of “mush”? Are you actually an Eskimo?

As an insult? No.

In this season with so many weird turns, we get team that has to win the Superbowl now because they will be terrible for a decade afterwards vs. a fun story but fringe playoff team.

 

Not very compelling. Brady vs. Mahomes round 2 would have been fun. Bills facing Brady in the SB would have been awesome. Miserable ******* Aaron Rodgers trying to win his second SB despite being one of the best ever in his last season with GB. Btw, lol @ GB for having back to back hall of fame, top 10 QBs and ending up with 2 rings. Instead, we're probably going to get a mediocre 24-21 game where Joe Burrow gets sacked 10 times.

I was telling someone the other day that I don't really appreciate greatness. I'm already sick of hearing about and watching Mahomes and have been long sick of Brady. I stopped watching pre-game shows and analysis for all sports years ago, but I still prefer some fresh new stories each year. I love a good underdog story and the Bengals are a fun new upcoming team so I'd rather them get there than KC.

 

It was the same when Tiger Woods was in his prime and during the baseball playoffs. I don't really want to see the Dodgers and Yankees/Red Sox in the World Series anytime soon.

 

 

I'd be curious if others feel this way. Maybe I'm weird. It will be interesting if the Jays become an annual contender - we'll see if that changes my views.

I am cheering for the Bengals for sure, I'm just salty because the Bills definitely softened up the Chiefs for them. Team of Destiny vibes. I'd like them even more if they were in the NFC.

 

The Rams are basically the mid 2000s Yankees. I hate the way they built their team and Sean McVay is way too handsome to be a head coach. You can be handsome, but don't be "pretty". Fun fact, Sean McVay's dad is named Timothy.

Tiger has to be first by a wide margin.

Not even according to Nicklaus.

That comment was in 2014 when everyone was sure Woods would take the most majors title.

[Jimcanuck]

In 1998 Woods tied for 8th at the Masters.

 

Nicklaus tied for 6th. He was 58 years old with a bad hip.

 

For sure Woods was tracking to be the best ever, but its not going to happen.

Tiger = Griffey jr?

Ben Hogan is the better comp. Hogan survived a car crash as bad or worse than Tiger's. Head on into a greyhound bus. He was never the same afterwards, but won the Triple Crown 4 yrs later.

Yeah but Tiger was breaking down before that even. Body wasn’t holding up. LeBron now with all the millions he spends each year on the body starting to break down…. Just makes it so amazing what Brady did. Naturally! (most guys I’m skeptical but with TB the secret seems to be seaweed shakes).
