tom brady pens thank you note to patriots fans sportsnaut

Perhaps as old as his dinosaur laptop is New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s stationery. Nevertheless, it is the thought that counts in Brady’s heartfelt, handwritten thank-you letter to his fans. He posted the message to his Facebook account.

We’ll give Brady an “A-” grade overall for content and grammar. Under a microscope, it appears he didn’t quite nail the word “privilege” in the fourth line. He might be known for his quirky and fun Facebook posts, but on Wednesday, Tom Brady took a somewhat more traditional approach to the thank you letter. Rather than a typed out letter, he shared a photo of a handwritten note addressed to Patriots fans. Penned on personal stationary, the letter reads: "Thank you to all of our fans for the incredible support you gave us this season.

I'm proud to call New England my home and to have the privilege of playing for your team. Our team fought hard all year, right down to the final play. I'm proud of the effort we all put in to prepare each game as if it were our last. We never quit nor lost sight of what we were playing for. It's rare to have the honor of being on a team like that. As I sit down to write this letter, I am overcome with gratitude, emotion, and reverence for a chapter in my life that has forever impacted who I am – as a man and...

This message is more than simply a perspective; it is a heartfelt dedication to the organization, the fans, and the whole Patriots community who have given me everything and more. You embraced me from the minute I came in Foxborough in 2000, as a tiny kid drafted 199th overall with nothing but belief and a willingness to work. You believed in me before the rest of the world did. You provided me the opportunity to compete, grow, and, ultimately, lead. For this, I am eternally grateful. Thank you, Mr.

Robert Kraft, for your unshakable trust and devotion. Your leadership fostered a culture in which winning was not only expected, but ingrained. You raised a family in New England, and I’m glad to have called it home. Thank you, Coach Bill Belichick, for challenging me, demanding the best from me, and pushing me to reach limits I had no idea existed. You instilled in me the discipline, mental toughness, and preparedness that would serve me well throughout my career. I have unending respect for you.

My teammates for the past two decades are my brothers. Each of you contributed to my path. We bled together in the frigid cold, celebrated on championship stages, and supported one other during difficult losses. Without you, there would be no MVPs, no Super Bowl rings, and no legacy. Just a kid attempting to make it. Tom Brady penned a handwritten letter to his fans on Wednesday, following the New England Patriots’ 20-18 loss to the Denver Broncos during the AFC Championship Game.

Brady shared his letter , written on his very own letterhead, on Facebook, and it has now been shared nearly 50,000 times by Facebook users and “liked” nearly 250,000 times. In the letter, Brady thanks his fans for supporting him and his teammates throughout the season. He said he is proud to call New England his home, and said it is a privilege to be able to play for their team. “Thank you to all of our fans for the incredible support you gave us this season. I’m proud to call New England my home and to have the privilege of playing for your team. Our team fought hard all year, right down to the final play.

I’m proud of the effort we all put in to prepare each game as if it were our last. We never quit nor lost sight of what we were playing for. It’s rare to have the honor of being on a team like that. It takes a lot of hard work and commitment to get as far as we did. Our goal every season is to win the last game, but as I’ve learned, the road to the next one is paved by seasons like this one. Tom Brady often thanks fans for the support they've shown him during his career in New England, and those outward expressions of appreciation haven't waned in the last 12 months as Brady has dealt...

On Wednesday night, Brady posted a photo to his Facebook account of a hand-written message he penned to Patriots fans. In it, he touches on his gratitude for Patriots fans and his respect for this year's team. And in his final paragraph, he indicates that he's not close to thinking about the end of his career. "It takes a lot of hard work and commitment to get as far as we did," Brady writes. "Our goal every season is to win the last game, but as I've learned, the road to the next one is paved by seasons like this one!"You can read Brady's full message below.

I'm proud to call New England my home and have the privledge (sic) of playing for your team," Brady began."Our team fought hard all year, right down to the final play.

We never quit nor lost sight of what we were playing for. It's rare to have the honor of being on a team like that. "It takes a lot of hard work and commitment to get as far as we did. Our goal every season is to win the last game, but as I've learned, the road to the next one, is paved by seasons like this one! Thanks again, Yours truly, Tom." The post had nearly a quarter of a million likes as of Thursday afternoon and as you'd expect was well-received by Patriots fans, who have staunchly supported Brady throughout the deflate-gate drama.
