I'm Not Done!

The arm still good.

He wants another ring on that finger. A lot of folks also calling out the fact that one former player still hasn't gotten back into the NFL.

Tom Brady announced he will play another season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Early February it was confirmed that Brady was looking to retire after he ended up losing a chance to play in the NFC playoffs. 

This comes less than two months after Brady had announced his retirement from the league.

It shocked the sports world.

"These past two months I've realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But it's not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I'm coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG."

Brady had announced his retirement on Feb. 1, releasing a lengthy statement on social media saying he wasn't able to commit "100%" of himself to the game.

Brady coming out of retirement is big news. He wants to make one more try for the Bucs to get to the Super Bowl. 

After the Los Angeles Rams pulled off a narrow victory against the Cincinnati Bengals, it rankled Brady. Brady wants to show Joe Borrow and Matt Stafford that he's still the GOAT.

Buc fans were excited that Tom decided to play another game. They saw an "unprecedented era of success" in him.

"Tom Brady loves to play football as much as anyone I have ever been around. As Tom said, his place right now is on the football field. He is still playing at a championship level and was as productive as anyone in the league last season. We are ecstatic that he decided to continue playing and working towards winning another championship," said Bruce Arians, the head coach for the Bucs. 

It comes as no surprise that Colin Kaepernick is still not playing with the NFL. Since he took a silent protest against police brutality, the far-right and NFL owners decided to make it about "culture wars."

The kneeling to protest is now looked at as an attack against the police and military. The far-right has used this as a scapegoat in their mission to bring authoritarianism to the country. Washed Up 45 and Republicans weaponized kneeling, wearing face masks and many other issues in their attempt to win back power.

They have no real message to the American people. As long as there's a Kaepernick, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), critical race theory, gay parents, transgender athletes and every other issue, the Republicans and white nationalists will remain in power.

I hope the best for Tom Brady but I would rather see Colin Kaepernick get his opportunity to play at least one season with the NFL.
