    Yeah, GOAT.

    Definitely best cheater of all time.

    There's a certain transcendent cheating talent in getting caught red handed, but still going unrecognized as a cheater.

              From Sports Illustrated: " . . . before committing to a football career, Brady once considered a career in baseball. He was drafted in the 18th round of the 1995 MLB draft as a catcher by the Montreal Expos, who relocated to Washington in 2004 and became the Nationals."

                Probably the most famous is Elway. He really teetered between pro baseball and pro football. Archie Manning was a high baseball draft choice.

                Russell Wilson was drafted and played a couple of years of minor league ball, never making it to the bigs.

                  Anywhere there are rules and regulations around fair play which everybody else follows, Tom Brady will excel.

                    I’m sure that he would have eventually found his way to Houston in the MLB….On another note, yeah, Brady made the better choice at the time.

                    He was drafted in the 6th round by the Patriots. A 6th round QB projects to be a decent backup. Obviously, Brady surpassed that, but that’s the expectation. Being drafted in the 18th round of the MLB draft points towards the minor leagues. Backup QB at NFL level > Pitcher at AA Baseball…

                    I do wonder about the QB of the Arizona Cardinals. He was projected to become a pitcher in the Bigs, and that’s a far better paying gig.

                      Don’t forget Deon. He actually played both professionally. And Kyler Murray probably should be in the MLB.

                        I was thinking of QB's.

                        The best I can remember was Bo Jackson.

                                      This movie lucked out with its release date. I doubt the marketing team could have known ahead of time that Brady would “retire” again at this time.

                                          Good to see some of Tom's contemporaries continuing to work, even as he retires.

                                          Speaking of ball deflation…
