Roxanne’s Review of 80 FOR BRADY

I had to a chance to see an advanced screening of 80 for Brady on Tuesday, and I loved it! 80 for Brady was as heart-warming as I imagined it…

I had to a chance to see an advanced screening of 80 for Brady on Tuesday, and I loved it!

80 for Brady was as heart-warming as I imagined it would be. But you know with a cast that includes icons like Lily Tomlin, Rita Moreno, Sally Field, and Jane Fonda there's got to be comedy, and there was plenty. The four award-winning actors play four best friends who are die-hard fans of the New England Patriots and obsessed with Tom Brady. They win a trip to the Super Bowl in Houston to watch Brady and the Patriots take on the Falcons and witness one of most epic come-from-behind wins in sports. The crazy predicaments the ladies get themselves into along the way were hilarious! A great reminder that you can get into trouble at any age on a girls' trip. The story of the four ladies' friendship was beautiful. I love how supporting a sports team brings people together of all ages.

I can understand why Tom wanted to put his name on this project. I read that the other stars in the movie were impressed with his acting. He certainly held his own.

I shared my thoughts on the MJ Morning Show, and of course, the guys acted like their usual crazy selves.

Our Favorite Tom Brady Memories

Today, the legendary Tom Brady announced his retirement from the NFL... Stop us if this sounds familiar. It seems like this is the real retirement announcement from the GOAT, even though he didn't leave us with a long winded speech, we think he is serious this time. So in honor of the GOAT's second retirement, we want to reminisce on all of his great times here in Tampa. These are our favorite Tom Brady memories.

Obviously we're forever grateful that Tom chose Tampa to be the second and only other NFL team he would play for. His first year as a Buccaneer came with a Super Bowl trophy that was won at home, along with some amazing boat parade memories. Seriously, who could ever forget the legendary Lombardi trophy toss. We also loved to see his personality step out more during his time in Tampa. His armchair QB segment with the Bucs showed his humor and personality like we've never seen it.

Here are some other Tom Brady memories we're grateful for
