For some people this business of football is getting to be little too serious!

It was also meant to show that every team has players who miss these voluntary workouts. Its not worth dramatic action by the team and FO. Dramatic over-reaction by fans of course is expected.

Excusing Brady's absence because he has a ring and thus deserves to spend more time with his family necessarily implies that those do not have a ring should spend more time on football and less on their family.

No Redskins fan can criticize Brady. When we played him last he dropped 52 on us. You can hate all you want, he has won 3 Super Bowls since we have won anything worth a damn.

To say he should be cut is pretty foolish.

No one here actually thinks he should be cut

And no one here should criticize him. He treated us like we walked into OZ the last time we played them.

Brady: Patriots Weren't "Mentally Tough" in 2009

May 12, 1:57 PM (ET)

BOSTON (AP) -Tom Brady said Wednesday the New England Patriots lacked confidence and mental toughness last season.
In a radio interview on WEEI in Boston, the quarterback also said the team didn't respond well to adversity.

"When the going got tough, we didn't get going. We weren't really a mentally tough team last year," he said.

The Patriots were 10-6, then lost 33-14 to the Baltimore Ravens at home in the first round of the playoffs as Brady threw four interceptions. New England had won three Super Bowls in the previous eight seasons with Brady but then lost team leaders Tedy Bruschi and Rodney Harrison to retirement and Mike Vrabel and Richard Seymour in trades.

The Patriots lost four games last year in which they led at halftime and were 2-6 on the road.

"Games that we lose in the fourth quarter, games that we lose in the second half, or losing on the road like we did, that can be lack of trust, lack of confidence," Brady said. "There are a lot of issues you have when that repeats itself time and time again over the course of the season."

Brady said he hopes the players coach Bill Belichick obtained during the offseason can make the team more mentally tough.

"Coach always used the words 'mentally tough' to us. I always agree with him," he said. "I think that's been a big point of emphasis this offseason. Hopefully, we find ways to address it with each other and also with coach bringing in different players and to see if they can bring a little bit of that to our team."

My Way - Sports News

Sure, he's missing the invaluable offseason training to be with his family, but then trashing his own team... For someone that threw 4 interceptions to lose the playoff game last year - he's not endearing himself to his teammates...
