We at the age of forty-four, the 7x Super Bowl Champion has shown no signs of ‘sucking’, as per Tom Brady. He has always said “when I suck I’ll retire” when asked about his retirement. He elaborated this statement on Thursday while talking to FOX Sports. “I feel like I want to play as a championship-level player,” Brady said. “That’s what I’ve said for a long time. When I’m not able to do that — I said a long time ago, when I suck I’ll retire — but what I really meant was when I’m not capable of leading the team to victory, then someone else has to do the job.”
