to add to hawgie's great take, i have never thought of tb as a great"spur of the moment" reactive speaker. a skill you need in that job. who knows, maybe he will surprise.
I think you said it all, H.
We had him here for almost two decades and none of us really knows if a guy that knows more X's and O's than any other player living can, or is
fully willing, to communicate that kind of knowledge to the masses.
I figured he'd want to do something with a greater overall impact after he leaves the field, such as an executive role in football, but I can't blame him
for taking the fat stacks. How many people are there in the world that would turn that deal down? Maybe he figures he needs the dough to buy his own
team some day. I can see the sense in that, at least, but it's hard to teach an old jock new tricks.
In any case, it's all academic until he decides he's had enough. Or changes his mind again.
Moving forward, I'll be watching how he handles his media appearances to see if he starts the process of letting his public guard down.
