Anybody else think Brady is getting paid under the books?
I heard from a reliable source that Belicheat puts out to keep him happy.

I understand that he's taking a smaller salary to make room in the cap, but it's not just 2 or 3 million dollars. He's making over 8 million a year when he should be making closer to 20 million a year. Doesn't make sense to me. That's a lot of cash to just say 'hey you can keep it.'

Winning means more. I don't see how you can be negative toward a guy who does this for a team and an organization. Flacco should follow this example it would keep Baltimore relevant. He's done this his entire career winning is more important than a pay day its quite simple.

I'm not being negative, I'm just saying, I think there's something more to this than us being said.

No its just how the guy is. Doesn't care about money never had a publicist or marketing firm either. Turns down tons of endorsements. Just not wired like a greedy pro athlete.

ROFL! You realize they are the second wealthiest celeb couple in the US, behind Jay-z and Beyonce right? Of course he can take a home town discount now that he is filthy stinking rich.
This is Flacco's first real contract. He was making peanuts on his rookie deal, being a late 3rd round pick. This is probably his one and only chance to cash in on his talent. I hope he gets as much as he can, he certainly deserves it after what he did not only this year, but the past five years.
As everyone knows, a player's career can end at ANY time. They would be crazy to play for less than they are worth when it could all be over at any second.

"Last year, Forbes Magazine reported that they were the world's second-highest paid celebrity couple behind Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z. And while such things are never fully accurate, the Forbes estimate that Brady and Gisele together made $72 million suggests he is a very rich man indeed. "

"this is to bring the Patriots salary-cap relief, giving the team's most essential player cap figures between $13 million and $15 million."
Sure it isn't 20 mil a year, but it is still pretty significant.

Check history Brady has done this multiple times throughout his career. This is not a first. Long before the rich wife. Greedy players kill franchises.

Missed in Nelsons whining is that this also benefits Brady by increasing the guaranteed money. If he guts hurt he has a career ending injury now he's getting 27 million before that number was much lower.

No your envious because your salaries on the Giants are causing good players to get cut and no one is stepping up to offer up some of there cash to keep the team on the field.

It's not you I've heard this shit 60 times today. When athletes cash in people bitch that they are greedy. When they take a less money people bitch that they are cheating. Which do you want? Is rather see a guy take less and finish his career with one team. As much as I hate to say it Ray Lewis is a good example. At points in his career he could have headed to a better team or got more money but he didn't. It's rare and that's unfortunate.
