Salute to a great. The great actually. Gets a lot of hate, warranted or unwarranted. His retirement seems like the end of an era altogether and hits in that nostalgic part.

1999 man. That will be the end of a string to many, many peoples childhood. I remember debating kids on my bus in 7th grade about why the Panthers or Patriots would win the Super Bowl. My argument was that they would beat the Panthers because they are Tom Brady. Now I have a son, 9 years old, who knows who Tom Brady is.

It's a vestige to more innocent days and I'm quite sad to see him go.

Yeah, Brady is easily still top ten when it comes to active QBs.   Tom's mental ability to quickly analyze defenses and react accordingly has always been his greatest strength.  He will likely be capable of doing that for decades to come.

You can't deny that ability.  If he wasn't so arrogant and getting away with crap that Cam was shamed for (ref saying Cam wasn't old enough to get roughing the passer).

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
