I have no idea what type of fringe benefits come with being a Superbowl champion, and I may never know. But for a man to do what Tom Brady just did to free up cap space on his "one-step away" Patriots team.................. The benefits must be TREMENDOUS!!!!
In 2010 Mr. Brady signed a 4yr/$72 million contract that would pay him $5.75 million dollars in the upcoming 2012 season.
Brady restructured his contract to bring that 2012 season payday a minuscule $950,000 (WHAT HAPPENED TO A ZERO?)................ Tom just threw away or pushed back $4.7+million dollars to make room for more free agency maneuvering by his Patriots front office that have never been in salary cap trouble and currently are not in a bad position...... Tom clearly wants that elusive 4th ring that he's been chasing long enough now in his eyes.......
Expect Mr. Brady to be a vocal monster this year, and expect many more public exploits from Mrs. Gisele. Because that's a chunk of money that you better believe Tom discussed with his wife, and she probably was not too happy about moving to the back burner.............

How much is a Superbowl ring worth?.............. Some will break the bank just for a shot at that level of greatness. And granted Tom already has a few Lombardi celebrations under his belt, but he's is no exception...........
