More Tom Brady & Aaron Rogers

[Boog]

Now just 40 days after retiring Brady has now come out of retirement. Going back to Tampa Bay. Says he has unfinished business. ?
Rogers is staying with Packers for $50m per year. Really?
So is this just a rivalry thing between those two or what?

Money Talks to many of them.

Yes. BIG MONEY. Those guys aren't dumb. If someone offered me big money to come back from retirement I would. But so far I haven't had any offers.

All I got was a cake.

You realize when Peyton Manning played the going rate for Top QBs was only approaching 20M? Now it's 50M, rich getting richer. Must be the global market.

Brady, ha ha ha, he loves the attention. Bucs must be looking good again, what else is new, they only stack teams now, apparently, just like the NBA. That and the officials sure have a way of seeing the "right teams" through. I sure like the game, but the BS including politics is sad.

Rodgers is his own worst enemy, on a side. His best ball can't really be duplicated, not that I've seen or felt, and he's consistent as can be, thanks in part to favorable conditions for the QB of course. But 50M? No wonder they can't win another SB, he takes too big a slice.

I'm a high school math teacher about to complete my 26th year, all at the same high school in the state of Arkansas. Teachers in Arkansas can retire with full benefits after completing 28 years.

I was elected by my peers to be on a yearly committee where we discuss various issues. One thing we discussed last month was a possible raise or stipend for high school math, science, & English teachers since we've been told that we're "so very hard to replace." Were told there's no money for this. So, OK........suck it up Buttercup and keep on plugging along.

So now, our School Board has voted to put in a new coaching position for high school volleyball......which will have a stipend attached to it. Really??? There's money for a new coach for a new sport that we've never done before, EVER, but there's nothing for the core teachers who are on the front lines when it comes to trying to catch all the students up after missing so much for COVID?

So I'm an NFL football fan. I loved my Houston Oilers and I am loyal to my Tennessee Titans, but this is really getting ridiculous now with the multi-million dollar contracts and athletes who don't honor their contracts or who hold out for more money. My fellow educators and I would all work our entire careers and not make as much as some of these pro athletes do for one season. Maybe not as much as they do for one game!

I think I have a solution to everyone's problem regarding this matter. I'm gonna pull a Tom Brady and retire, then come back because I have unfinished business and name my price tag. Or maybe I'll complain and whine and gripe like Aaron Rodgers does until I get a big raise. Think it'll work at a public school? I may just go offer my services as an NFL quarterback to the Packers & Bucs. I would play for one quarter of their salaries.......they could cut these guys and let me play and use the leftover money to go bring in other better players to surround me and we would do just as good. I can hand the ball off to Derrick Henry and watch him roll thru defenses just like Ryan Tannehill does. How would that be?
