felt was different from what happened in the past. oh, most definitely. i mean the record speaks for the record speaks for itself. i can't think of any other case other than george floyd which was again, so sort of one of the more heinous cases as well. but even their case took a little while, right. i can't. i think i'm hard pressed to think of a case that has, that has moved as swiftly as swiftly as this one. again, the, the work of the activists here on the ground. thanks to the work of, of so many of the folks who were mentioned in the, in, during the funeral. who brought this case. who brought this case to lights up for me. that's the 1st back. right. if those, if those folks had not pushed to get this case a little more notoriety then who knows. busy what would have had dr. charles mckinney thank you very much indeed for joining us here. i'm just a really appreciate your time. thank you for the 1st responders who stood by and did nothing as to how real life was being taken read. so use our collect divorces.

i'm orientated this is that the algae or news our lie from london coming up. ah. use it emotion and anger at the funeral of tyree nichols in memphis and a call for reform of policing in america. you don't stand up to the industry. we common bogs yourself, you case, largest coordinated strike action in a generation half a 1000000 people walk out demanding better pay and conditions for francis meets victims of war and the democratic republic of congo and condemns brutal atrocities in the east of the country. and the climax over 50000 year journey, this green tinge comment makes its closest approach to earth. allen sport 7 times super bowl champion, tom brady retires again. and the 45 year old nfl, sorry,

made the announcement v as social media insisting this time it's for good. ah reagan, this news hour in memphis, tennessee, with the funeral of 29 year old tyree nichols who died are to being beaten by police officers. ah, among those speaking with civil rights activists, al sharpton, he delivered a eulogy for the man whose death is spot, renewed outcry against police brutality in the u. s. i know what i saw on the tape and the tape speaks for itself.

may never, it does mean for his license never ag for the car registration, smacked tim out of the. com. but you don't fight crime by becoming criminals yourself. you know, stand no to dogs. industry become an thugs yourself. you know, freight gay by becoming fab. ah men against the on army? that a the poll least those punks move monsters, murder, my maybe brother did love me completely.

oh, i see the world shown him well friday for his chest is but um, what is my baby barely bed and even in his the my he was feel polite. he accepts a place. 6 public young man, he always worked as he actually stacked in it. gabrielle on jones's live now from memphis, and we heard there some of the moving tributes from family members and an attempted to try and show what the life of terry nichols was. not just that the brutal death that he suffered. that's right, this was billed as really a celebration of tyree nichols of life. not his death. and that's exactly what i

think you saw particularly poignantly at the end. when his 2 sisters are that we just heard from there in that quip and 2 brothers of his really opened up a brief statement, but powerful, talking about how hard it was to lose their sibling in this manner. and then also hearing of course, from his step father and then at the very end his mother. but we haven't heard from a lot because it's been very difficult for her as we can all certainly imagine struggling because it was her youngest son, tyree nichols and her talking about how hard it was choking back tears as she tried to explain what she was feeling right now, so certainly you got a better sense of who tyree nichols was, you know, an advocate skateboarder someone that was clearly a very,

as we heard over and over some of the young man it was very polite. and of course, a father of a 4 year old. so you really got a sense of what he was like as a person in this, a moral service that i should say, lasted almost exactly 3 hours and gave birth. the reverend al sharpton tackled head on dingy the fact that in this case, the 5 officers who have not been charged with 2nd degree murder. well, we're also black. yeah, that's right. he said that the essentially, how could this have been done to tie re, nichols by 5 in his words, black brothers, 5 other black men, especially in the city of memphis or dr. martin luther king. of course, the famous civil rights leader was killed here over 40 years ago. and he mentioned that, you know, martin luther king and other civil rights activists through the decades. fotz,

and in some cases gave their lives, in order to get african americans jobs or positions in power such as being on police forces. and now they are police officers, in some cases in the city of memphis. the police chief is an african american woman . and now these 5 black officers could do this when they have this position of power to another black man. so he certainly tackled that head on. and i think what we heard, it was very interesting throughout this as well, including from vice president, comma la harris, who gave some brief remarks, is that they're talking about legislation. and that's something that we have not heard in previous memorial services for or african americans that have been victims of police brutality like this in recent years. at least not in this scale. i think there's a sense now it's simply calling for justice is one thing. but getting legislation

passed nationally that will really hold police accountable when they are accused of wrongdoing is key. and they mentioned things like a qualified immunity which police officers have in the united states. essentially what that is, it's very hard for police to be brought to justice and faced justice when they are accused of wrong doing that needs to end according to almost every speaker that we've heard from here. essentially they're saying that police officers should have to abide by the same laws and be held accountable, but to the same laws that anyone else are in the united states. and right now they're not. once they put on that badge, they have some immunity. and also the george floyd justice and policing act named after george ford. of course it was killed in 2020 in minneapolis, minnesota. when he was killed by a white police officer there, some legislation there was going to reform policing. that legislation passed the

house of representatives. but what was failed in the then republican controlled senate, there is now renewed call to get that legislation back in congress and get it passed again. that would be a sweeping piece of legislation. probably the the biggest in, in a generation. quite frankly, that would reform policing throughout the united states. and in terms of the, the, the situation in this case, the, the unit that these police officers were part of has been disbanded. doesn't tell us a bit about the, the repercussions kind of more locally from, from this particular incident. yeah, the scorpion unit is, it was called was a specialized unit with in many memphis police department. there was assigned to high crime areas and it was meant to be to crack down on

criminality in high crime areas. these all 5 of the officers that were involved in this case were part of that unit. and it was considered essentially by activists here, a renegade road unit. one lawyer that i spoke to said it was essentially in his words, almost like a gang within the police force. those are his terms to a lawyer. i spoke to that, but that unit has been disbanded. activists were calling for it to be disbanded for a long time, even before the death of tyree nichols. but the police chief disbanded it just last week, permanently here in memphis. the police force is about 50 percent african american in a city that is about 65 percent african american. so there's a lot of soul searching going on here right now. and there is, i will say, some praise bye, not only tyree nichols, family,

but his lawyers and even some active here. praise that the police department did respond quickly. within a matter of 20 days, the 5 officers were fired from the force they were arrested, and criminal charges were pressed against them. so there has been some level of accountability here, and it's in one ways, according to the family, and to ben crump their lawyer. it's almost a model for how it should be done in the future for other police forces. but certainly, i can say here in memphis, there's a lot of pain, quite frankly, that they've had to go through this. if they're going through this as a city city that's quite frankly, very pride for city. there's a long history of course of fighting for civil rights. and so i think that now the cities sort of come to grips with where they are moving forward in this. but certainly there's, there's a sense here of wanting to in memphis, at least wanting to take this national. i say this movement for police reform,

national camera on to thank you very much indeed. coming up on this news out from london. i couldn't believe it. i, i didn't want to bluetooth brother tells of his family's grief. we speak with every day ukrainians dying for their country. and his sport, the fee for club world cup begins in morocco action from the opening game nation program. ah. the u. k is experienced, its largest coordinated strike action in a generation up to half a 1000000 train and bus drivers, civil servants, university lecturers and security guards walked off the job in dispute over pay jobs and working conditions. the trade unions conduct congress which represents most trade unions in england, and wales opposes

a proposed law that would require unions to provide minimum levels of service on strike days or a $100000.00 teachers stage. the 1st strike in schools in england, wales for more than 6 years. they were given a 5 percent pay rise last year, but want and above inflation increase of more than 10 percent. and the mother has more oh, smiling through the colds. but normally samarra and her colleagues at the school were pupils with special needs would be in sight. we want to pay royce that meets the rising cost of living and treats people in the profession. i've had to make he sacrifices, i've actually watch t jobs and for, by the years now to be able to get to the keeper rebate my head to be able to put fuel in my car so that i can actually get to work. even friends of mine, he have been teachers 43 years, have decided that it's just not for them because they genuine, he cannot bear the stress and the, the overload and or, and the what played that,

that they are expected to do. thousands of teachers and their families marched in london on wednesday, many stress payroll. this should be far higher than the 5 percent offered for last year. and be paid by the government. not comfortable ready, stretch school budgets. that pipe and pay came eligible budget. so what you're doing is you're taking wake me things to be in the teachers, and i'm not good enough. my mom's name and like, it's just, she works so much emotional dimensions. you have to think like doing so much more than ever applies to. these teachers are making sure that to melinda, heard on what is clearly a sizable demonstration, number of industrial action, taking in various parts of the economy or coating on the government for pay rises that lead to inflation. the government insist is bound by the recommendations of the pay review body, even though it's constrained by the financial remit. ministers gave it the

independent pay review body recommended 5 percent fixed payments teaches an 8.9 percent for new teachers. there's also progression pay within those salary bands as well. so 40 percent of classroom teachers will actually be getting pay rises up to 15.9 percent this year for the national education union that's far from good enough . they accused ministers of refusing meaningful talks. they called to do dial down the rhetoric dial down and down to teach 10. they got to start to get into the room . i'm the lunch about the time of the resources to negotiate assessment. so at the moment there is not an offer on the table that you can put to them. so the snow actually for this year, adding days, a delay, they should have public service. i believe what your friday i haven't published it . the next education strike is due at the end of the month. if there's no movement of pe, you will likely to be seeing more protests. look just from people like tomorrow, but work as in other key professions who at least for now enjoy brought support

from the public. the dean bother al, jazeera london f. b. i has found no classified documents. dr. search of a beach house owned by u. s. president joe biden, the search was bought a special council investigation into his handling of classified material buttons. personal attorney said the president gave his full support and cooperation to the investigation. last month f e. i. agents found several classified documents in biden's home in wilmington, kimberly alcott has more from washington, dc. what i can tell you is that the f b, i did go there. they did not pick up any documents with any sort of classified markings on them. but there were some hand written notes that were taken from the president's residence there. the beach house, as it's known in robust beach, delaware. these handwritten notes pertain to time when the president was, in fact,

vice president under brock obama. now it's important to note that the president, according to his attorney, was aware of this search. it was consensual, the president was cooperative. and this is part of an ongoing search of a number of locations including his private residence in wilmington, delaware. this follows her search where there was also a turning up of documents in a think tank in washington d. c, which really sort of set all of this off of the think tank known as the pen biden's center. and this sort of culminated in is search for documents that prompted the attorney general merit garland to look into whether there has been a mis handling of classified documents by joe biden. not only pertaining to his time, his vice president, but also his time as a u. s senator as well. joe biden and u. s. house speaker kevin mccarthy. a meeting for the 1st time since they took their respective positions. relations between democrats and republicans,

a tense because of differences over the debt ceiling. my cannon joins us from washington dc. so to tell us what this is all about. well, the meeting began an hour ago. it's the 1st time that president biden has set down with the newly appointed speaker of the house. and the issue here is the debt ceiling. now last month the government reached its debt ceiling, that's the amount of debt that it can borrow. and this set up a conflict with the republican run house in june. the house can then determine whether to freeze the debt ceiling or to allow it to be raised. now to freeze, it would mean that the government defaults on its debt, which would have massive national and indeed global consequences. so president biden is meeting the lead of the house today to start exploring ways in which the republicans can agree to raise the debt ceiling without any concessions. now, the republicans are intent on cutting federal spending. this is something that

they've made very clear in recent months, and they want to use the issue of the debt ceiling to get concessions from the bite and government, the biden government and says they will be no concessions that the debt ceiling should be raised as it was 3 times when president trump was in power and that they should know be no concessions involved. now we understand that president biden's aid sent a memorandum to the speaker of the house yesterday in which had said the 2 major points in this meeting. firstly, all republicans going to commit to the government paying its debts. and secondly, when will the republicans issue their budget, the way they see federal spending should be going. so, i mean you've, you've had on some of the reasons why this meeting is important, but it does have a kind of, is there something else that we wish we're looking out for now, it's absolutely critical on one level to see how the bite and administration is

going to work together with a republican controlled house. now this is a particularly major issue, not only for the debt ceiling, although that is the most pressing issue. but generally how the by then administration can press ahead with its legislative agenda in the months to come. that is very dependent on its relationship with the house. now remembering that with the debt ceiling issue, for example, if the republican dominated house agrees to raise that debt ceiling, then it goes to the senate, which is democrat controlled. it need 60 boats in the senate, but there's another issue here which is very important and which president vine is going to be discussing with the house speaker. and that is the republicans incredibly, their. busy majority in the house, and that puts them at the mercy of the extreme right conservatives in the house who got concessions that is believe from the speak of the house in order to make him the speaker during that drawn out election process. president biden's going to be

asking the speaker for the house. to what extent are these far right wing members of the republican party fitting the agenda? they want to cut in military spending, for example, they want to cut in medicaid. they want to cut in very essential things like social security, moderate republicans do not want to cut military spending because he himself has made clear he opposed to cutting medicaid or social security. so these are the issues that bite and we'll be talking about over the next hour. i can, i thank you very much indeed. but frances has criticized brutal atrocities in eastern democratic republic of congo otter meeting victims of war in kinshasa. he also celebrated mass with a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people in the capital. welcome web reports from the thousands of people gathered in a field in kinshasa to celebrate mass with pope frances seem to visiting

by way we knew a former political prisoner and activists who advocates for the rights of people in mino, thank you very much. indeed for being with us, i know that you were in jail for a long time in mid march, and understand that around 70000 people have been jailed in the last 2 years of the since the qu happened. can you give us a bit of a sense of what it's like and in the jailer? so in my jail, foothill, thank you for having me. lauren. so my jails are known for its 2 polities and inhumane 2 men towards political prisoners and prisoners in general. for decades, by the under the military dictatorship. now this time, this time during this curve, they are even more brutal than ever in the history of that in human treatments by the stop us to the live and condition deplorable living conditions

in the inside the prison itself. is a huge torch and trauma to the, to the prisoners, specially for the political prisoners at the same time, the military has been taught or in the young people, democracy activities to death even before the, before they sent him to, to, to, to jail. so yes, this, this is horrific situations. it's, it's, it's really brutal and, and despite of all of this brutality and, and inhuman treatment of the political prisoners, that recently last year, they have actually executed for democracy, activists inside the prison, without due processes, without fair trials. and without access to justice at all, and get given all that and, and the numbers of people who've had to flee the country and so on. you surprised

as to got a lot of protests, i mean, on the, on the anniversary today, the people, you know, very defintely not opening their shops and things. what did you think of the, the response to that to demonstration, to their demonstrations. oh, yes. so it is incredible to see how determine people of me and my are to fight against the military dictatorship to remove the military out of the burmese politics once and for all the military has actually killed over 3000 people over the past 2 years. since their, their attempted coo and ad detains or over 17000 people. at the same time, they've been brutalize an entire countries in many, many phones out from a strikes to their nitrates and an arrest and detention torture. all of this. but at the same time, it is incredible to see how people, despite of all these challenges, people are determined to go out of the street or even take this silent strikes,

serious and as showing they are demonstrating their, their willingness to a resistant military coup. and it's incredible, and it's never happened in the history of people united across the country. people are united in one by 11 objective to, to remove the military from, from the politics and to hold, to hold the military leaders accountable for what they are doing. where we're new, thank you very much. indeed, we appreciate you taking the time, taurus and program. thank you for listen focused on say the suicide bomber who killed at least a 100 people in an attack on a per shower mosque may have had internal assistance. i say several suspects have now been arrested families of those who were killed in the attack, a barrier their loved ones as a vague reports from the shower to friends, late to rest, they grew up together, joined the police together and died together over neither graves lie side by side

in the same graveyard. the fathers of if the car a yen, if now mean more their losses. noble could they have to have that to your mother, mark if the car was the only bread winner for the family, that on his death is a big loss for us. all course, he was a very obedient son and used to spend his salary on the family. his children ask our serve at of what is barber, let them wash their, tell them to lose. relatives comfort if the cause to children. they're too young to understand what's happened to their father. or there have been, you know, a little bit louder. sure. terrorists have killed my brother with such cruelty. they were all innocent. this is our government's failure. the pac tune. people have been badly targeted was no one we spoke to here, expected an attack, let alone inside a highly fortified area that was meant to be secure. ah, the suicide bombing on monday was the worst and a decade in the shower. all but 3 of those killed were police officers across the

city. people are paying their respects to those that have lost their sons. but as they grieve, many are also asking how this could happen. why is it the violence they thought was behind them as come to haunt them? once again? a breakaway faction of the blackest only taliban or ttp is being blamed. the prettiest commander is visiting families of the deceased and security is high, but he cannot offer any security assurances to the people here. we shut out of order with a vine, his fan, and the terrible and part of on his fan toes earned self or to keep him in. they are hiding there. the hell shift to go. find a fan along with their families. ah, and you are outside of me or do all of this is fire. so yes, we should be ready for warner text. an investigation is ongoing as police go through what's left of the mosque. but there's an uneasy feeling here that those asking how this happened won't get answers, and more lives could be lost as

a big i 0, be shower buffy some. the brazilian military on wednesday launched an operation to crack down on illegal gold miners in the amazon region. fighter jets and surveillance plains are being used to prevent small aircraft from supplying the elicit mining camps. the money is having a severe effect on the indigenous young mummy population is aggravating. a health crisis that includes malnutrition and diseases such as malaria. that's killing the local people about 30000 yet. mommy people live in brazil's largest indigenous territory, which stretches across the will. rymer and missouri states in the northwest corner of the amazon illegal gold miners have invaded the mommy territory for decades. but if flooded back and recent is attracted by high gold prices and urged on by former president julia both scenarios. the mining has destroyed the habitat of the animals, the animals, people hunt. and as the miners read ok to exploits, new areas,

they spread diseases to native peoples who possess low immunity, due to limited contact with others are still present, noisiness. you lead a silver into the amazon state of verena earlier this month and declared a medical emergency in the, you know, mommy territory. he also accused his predecessor able scenario of genocide against indigenous groups and promised to put an end to illegal gold mining program director with greenpeace brazil. andrew ramos joins me now. i live from where to generic. thanks very much for being with us. so what, what do you make of the governments that moves so far to tackle the problems in this area? so the signals that we've been getting from the brazilian, from the new brazilian administration regarding this crisis are very positive, right? but this is a major crisis. and it will take many steps to, to fix it. it's important to say that this crisis that we're witnessing now in the mind mean business land is not just about the money people. it's happening across

indigenous lands in the amazon. and it's not about just that. it's not just about now the consequences of the expansion of illegal gold mining in the amazon over the past few years will linger and will require massive concrete action from the government if we want to properly address this challenge. so you said that you told about the consequences of being on a long term. how did is that to do with contamination of the land or what, what are the main consequences? yeah, i mean there are many consequences of illegal good money. and it's an issue that often gets overlooked when we talk about environmental destruction in the amazon. but it is devastating to the environment and especially to indigenous peoples in the amazon. so there is the environmental impact and that includes the

contamination of reverse by mercury, which is a direct consequence of this activity. there is the destruction of rain forest, which happens as a, as a direct result of this activity as well. but there's also the social impact, especially on indigenous people in the gold mining has a very significant impact on the way these groups organize politically and socially . right? the ability it hurts their ability to survive and thrive in their own territories and changes the social dynamics within this, these groups. so the consequences are very significant. and again, they don't, they're not just about this one indigenous land. this is a, this is a challenge that we're seeing across the amazon in multiple indigenous lands and gives an idea of a scale of it. and i saw somewhere that half of the $100.00 tons of gold produced

each by brazil. about $52.00 tons is, is illegally mind. is that it with those figures? correct? i don't have the exact figures in front of me now, but the piece brazil has been developing research to try to track the past that good falls from the amazon to to either countries. there is a very significant challenge in determining your legality of this, of the, of the, the sourcing. and because of the way this industry operates, it's one of the signals that the current administration has given is that he will address that, that is happening right now. the government does want to change the way the gold industry has been operating in the amazon in brazil. but today it's very hard to track and to precise like to, to determine the lab, the legality of the go,

haven't felt the need to go that far, because they think that the rate of inflation is slowing down and we know are the inflation crisis has hit millions of families across america with increased prices . the fed chairman jerome poll acknowledges that things are improving slightly, but it's not a battle that has yet been won my colleagues and i understand the hardship that high inflation is causing. and we are strongly committed to bringing inflation back down to our 2 percent goal. over the past year, we've taken forceful actions to tighten the stance of monetary policy. we've covered a lot of ground and the full effects of our rapid tightening so far are yet to be felt. even so we have more work to do. the attention will no switch to the european central bank and the bank of england. they are expected to announce their interest rates in the coming days. it's expected that they could be looking at rises of about half of one per cent. and of course, all of this is happening in the united states against the debt limit crisis that

the u. s. is already hit its debt limit, it is taking extraordinary measures to make sure the bills continue to be paid. but the federal reserve chairman jerome palo saying it would be a mistake for the us not to increase the debt limit. and he's looking for congress to do something. no, they've got around 4 months before the money. actually all runs out. they have never failed to raise the debt limit. but the longer the uncertainty continues, the more impact it will have on the u. s. economy. and by extension, the global economy, alan fisher, there are 20 radioactive caps you're missing in the australian outback has been recovered in a major search operation. the 8 millimeters by 6 millimeters capsule limits the how this isotope cesium 137, and was part of a gauge used in iron all mining. it fell off a trunk on our 1400 kilometers stretch of road in western australia last week. the

most visible to star gazes on wednesday. colon baker has more. there are billions of comets in our solar system. a handful that passed by the earth every year, and a few that become so called bright comments with glowing heads and long tails. last year a new one was discovered as it passed the orbit of jupiter. and right now, if you look north, just after sunset near the big dipper constellation, using binoculars or a telescope, you might just be able to see comment 2022, e 3 zed t f, named after the telescope that saw it. and the time it was seen likely comes from the distant or cloud, a cosmic mist of water, ice and rock that sits thousands of times further from our son than neptune. it's one of 2 places, comments come from in our solar system. the last time this comment appeared in our sky, earth was in an ice age, and modern humans were making stone age tools alongside now extinct neanderthals

lead in 56, the minutes. i'm percy, tau finished things off or i'll alley with just minutes left to go in the much to give a reno when will face tournament debutantes m l s i b a seattle as founders. next all the tournament is happening in morocco, home to african champions. we data casablanca, who are aiming to become the 1st team from outside of europe, or south america to win the title. our correspondent, dandy richardson is in the moroccan capital of robots, where we, dad will play their opening match on saturday. ah wake up to travel to fall morocco to find a game of football game is always been popular, but never more so than now, particularly after the national theme achieve. the castle will cover, of course they go through to the semi finals. now the decision to bring the club will come to this country was only made at the end of last year. and it's

a testament really existing football infrastructure in morocco that they were able to take all not responsibility at such short notice. the clips will cut itself is it's for them and that it's telling how struggle to establish its own identity. it's born out of the inter continental couple years was just played between the champions of europe and south america. but really for the last couple of decades, fee for the games will governing body has been looking at ways to expand the tournaments. and in december, it was announced that from 2025 it will become a $32.00 team event. and it's current guys, 7 clubs, or here in morocco headlined by ram, madrid of spain. and flamenco of brazil, morocco also happens to be home to the african club champions. without casablanca, they'll begin their campaign against al, hello, saudi arabia, in rebecca, on saturday. no morocco has hosted this to him. it's on a couple of previous occasions in 2013 raja casablanca without city arrivals and

taking part they got through to the final before losing out to buy and munich. that remains the best of a performance by an african team. at the club world cup, which i would love to do something similar or perhaps even better. this time around . chelsea have smashed the british a transfer record to sign argentinian woke up where now and so for now this they paid been figure $130000000.00 for the 22 year olds in a last minute transfer deadline day deal. chelsea fans will hope the cut her 2022 young player award winner can help revive their season for now. this joins a team sitting 10th in the leak. we've been speaking to evening, standard football correspondent and his arkan fell on whether fernandez can be a savior to chelsea's nightmare season. it's still going to be hard in place. chelsea. right. so yeah, i mean bread and so the pressure is on the hit the ground running right away. but i

think if you look is past me, he came into play 17 games that he joined. but peak about that supper, lead 7 point, clear became a river play, his former club. and i didn't see that excellent right from the beginning. and his lo may as well to defend it. just the knowledge and seeing that he was excellent, even at 19 years old. so yeah, this is the guy used to hit the ground running. so maybe history says he'll do again at chelsea. the fee paid in may be over paid a little bit. kelsey said they wouldn't, you know, pay too much for this player, but in the end them to pay more than the actual buyout clause. so they can spread the cost of the contract, the cost of the fee over the course of the contract. so the sign in the daily allows and spread the cost a little bit, but it's a very high phase. the british transfer record chelsea spending in general is a world record amounts. so it's only, it's only natural that you expect results and you expect results quickly. so i guess the pressures on grandpa says to make this a success,

to make this famous obsess and also with this signing, they have to build the team around him for the future. and how legend tom brady says he's retiring and this time he and says it's for good. the 7 time super bowl winner made the announcement on social media brings to an end a 23 year playing career. this however is not the 1st time brady his studies retiring. he had announced him his ending, his playing days last year, only to return for another season and 45 year old played 20 seasons for the new england patriots before moving to the tampa bay buccaneers. and 2020. good morning guys. i'll get to the point right away. i'm retiring or good. i know the process was a pretty big deal last time. so when i woke up this morning i figured i just press record. let you guys know 1st. i won't be long winded, you only get one super emotional retirement essay and i use my not last year. so i

really thank you guys so much to every single one of you for supporting early response americans, sports broadcast r, michael carlson about whether brady's retirement will stick this time. you can never say never, i think with, with tom brady. but what was interesting to me was that he announced it the day after sean payton the coach had signed it to coach the denver broncos, where there's no opening for a quarterback. but last year there was a, there was a scandal involved as the miami dolphins tried to sign both brady and payton to comes a package deal. and they were punished by the league for tampering because both guys were under contract to other teams. i think he might have been holding out a little hope that he and peyton might finally get together. but i think with peyton going to denver, that probably was the last straw. and you remember, if he had stuck to his retirement last year, just about this time last year instead of coming back,

he might still be married now byron left, which might well have been the coach in carolina instead of staying in tampa. and then being fired after the disappointing season, the team had this year, and there could be a whole lot of other things different to the nfl. okay, that's that for me it's now back to lauren in london. thank you very much and that's it made, aren't elephant nisa? i'll be back in amendment with mormonism. thanks for watching makena. ah ah. a
