Sidebar, so to speak, at the money these guys make I truly GET and AGREE with Brady’s philosophy and I think it is quite a smart move, keeping a good group around him for those years!
For me, the way Brady’s smug-like personality/ego is, I never thought he’d be the one to choose the contract philosophy he did!?
Also, I have to say, on one hand, I’m surprised that more players haven’t followed suit with Brady’s philosophy, especially seeing how beneficial it’s been for him!
On the other hand I can see, not understand, but see how these run away egos are prevalent for all the other prima donnas.
I can remember, back in the day, when football AND baseball players had to have other jobs in the off season to make ends meet!
I don’t agree with that end of the perspective but it’s gone from one end of the spectrum to another!
Burrow has said that he currently lives on his endorsements and banks his checks, so he may just surprise everyone and take the Brady approach to stay in Cincy and let Katie orchestrate a team around him.
