2022 NFL playoffs/SUPER BOWL

[Atticus]

The NFL should have a rule that once you've retired you have to wait at least a year to unretire.

Ah, yes, a Brett Favre Rule.

March 2008 - retired
August 2008 - signs with Jets

February 2009 - retired
August 2009 - signs with Vikings

December 2010 - retired
January 2011 - signed final NFL retirement papers

2013 - SL Rams ask him to sign with them . . . he did not, citing cumulative concussion problems.

2021 - restarts quarterback career . . . with Jerry Rice as his primary wide-out! . . . on TV ads.

"Surely, he’ll walk through the door as the highest paid of any of the current analysts. Why else would he have agreed to do it, if he wasn’t going to be making more than CBS’s Tony Romo or ESPN’s Troy Aikman?"

The auction company has decided to cancel the sale and refund the money.

It wasn't paid for yet. They would have needed a legal battle to force the buyer to pay -- a battle they might not win. Simpler and cheaper to just void the sale. They might have handled it differently if they'd already received the money.

i wonder if the ball now takes on any special "last one that wasn't" status and still sells for a stupid amount of money

Right now, the ball is still his last touchdown ball, and will remain that way for at least 5 months.

Brady was drafted into the NFL in April 2000. In the draft next month, it's likely that at least 25% of the players who will be drafted were not yet born when he was drafted.

"Thank God, I had no idea what I was going to do with my Sundays. Congratulations @TomBrady, so proud of you!"
I think this is an eg. of wit?

She's been supportive of Brady in the past so my guess is the sentiment is sincere.

"A well-known auctioneer predicts that the auction house that sold Tom Brady's "last" touchdown ball, less than a day before Brady announced he would return to the game, will void the sale.

If the auction house listed the lot as "last one", they certainly should.. . . Assuming he does throw another one.

To adapt a comment seen a couple of times in music magazine reviews of poor albums, perhaps the purchase of the ball for that price was God's way of telling him he had too much money.

Or more precisely, too much money relative to the knowledge and wisdom for what to do with it.

Bad news for the guy who just paid over a half-million for Brady's "last" TD ball LOL

Does Buyer of Tom Brady’s ‘Last’ Touchdown Ball Have a Case for a Refund?

"A well-known auctioneer predicts that the auction house that sold Tom Brady's "last" touchdown ball, less than a day before Brady announced he would return to the game, will void the sale.

But if they don’t, a sports lawyer says the buyer is out of luck.

Lelands, the auction house that sold the ball on Saturday for $518,625, has had no comment."

Exactly what I was thinking.
