He posted a video saying:"Good morning guys. I’ll get to the point right away. I’m retiring. For good. I know the process was a pretty big deal last time so when I woke up this morning I figured I’d just press record and let you guys know first. I won’t be long-winded. You only get one super-emotional retirement essay and I used mine up last year."Tom Brady and co. in Fenway ParkHe continued:"Thank you guys so much to every single one of you for supporting me. My family, my friends, my teammates, my competitors, I could go on forever -- there's too many. Thank you guys for allowing me to live my absolute dream.
