Just as long as he doesn't start making lousy insurance commercials.

I'm sure there are more than a few members here who are working on increasingly zany conspiracy theories for how he was using all this time but never tested positive.

Well, Edelman who worked with Brady's personal and very controversial trainer was suspended for PEDs, right?

PED's and a guy who looks a lot skinnier than when his career started don't make lot of sense to me as a narrative, but it's not exactly proof. And, as a Giant fan I love to hate on Brady. Hell he couldn't even beat Eli.

Edelman was caught by the league's urinalysis program that Brady was also subjected to. If Brady was using, he would've been caught too.

I wasn't suggesting Brady used, only saying that given the Edelman situation I am surprised it isn't the subject of more speculation.

From this morning's news it looks like this story is bogus. EIt seems ESPN blew it. It would be nice if some of these news agencies actually had the truth once in a while.

All about the clickbait these days. So what, what are the damages? Just a sad state of "reporting"
