"I'm very grateful for the overwhelming support I've received from Mr. Kraft, the Kraft family, coach Belichick, my coaches and teammates, the NFLPA, my agents, my loving family and most of all, our fans. It has been a challenging 18 months and I have made the difficult decision to no longer proceed with the legal process. I'm going to work hard to be the best player I can be for the New England Patriots and I look forward to having the opportunity to return to the field this fall."

By capitulating Brady has de facto admitted he is a cheater and now has run away from the legal battle that would have cleared his name.
Now those who are true fans of the game can enjoy the upcoming season.
Tom Brady has never once admitted cheating and does not admit cheating now. This isn't about him being found guilty of cheating, Alex because the NFL failed miserably in their attempts to prove Brady cheated...what this is about is the Appeals Court taking the position that however unfair Roger Goodell's decision was...that the collective bargaining agreement gave him the power to BE unjust!
The bottom line is Tom Brady was punished for something the NFL never proved...and the player rated second best in the League BY THE PLAYERS THEMSELVES...will be sitting out four games because Roger Goodell's ego is too big to admit that he was wrong! Fans of the game of football will miss seeing the best quarterback ever to play football take the field. Haters like yourself will rejoice!

Actions speak louder than words. he knew he had little chance, if any, that he would prevail based on the facts presented.
OFS: "This isn't about him being found guilty of cheating, Alex because the NFL failed miserably in their attempts to prove Brady cheated."
Of course not, because the Court can over rule the CBA where it would be found that the Commissioner has abused his authority.

They did not.
OFS: "sitting out four games because Roger Goodell's ego is too big to admit that he was wrong!"
The Commissioner exercised his authority appropriately and made a determination with just cause. All certainly within the scope of his authority as voted on by Tom Brady
et al

Wrong, I want Brady to play every single minute he can I enjoy when he cries, has temper tantrums and pouts.

Fact is Brady is nothing more than a cheater and a liar and now the world knows this. Brady has taken advantage of the cheating ways of his organization for most, if not all, of his career, That is how a 6th round draft pick gets to the Super Bowl. He tried it himself and failed miserably resulting is a 4 game suspension.
