falcons007 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 He was the best TE in the NFL last year despite being a Grand pa. Glad he came back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bt12483 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) 58 catches + $7M + SB shot = no retirement.No brainer to come back.I've had Tony G on several fantasy teams and he is usually money.The only concern I would have is sometimes father time can catch up and impact an older player in a jiffy. I doubt that will happen to Gonzalez since he keeps himself in such good condition. But when time catches up, it seems to catch up in a hurry, e.g. all at once you drop off a cliff.

raysnill1 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 it's time for the NFL to get on the Tony G retirement ride. they made a big deal about Ray Lewis riding off into the sunset with a title, it's only right to ride Tony G out with a championship too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Minotaur Zebra Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Father time tried to catch up but Tony G beat him over the middle for another TD.LOL... /thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1970 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I still can't believe how many NFL clowns fall for that slow as stop and go move of his after the catch. It works every time. Sometimes on three defenders. It's like he's using Jedi mind tricks or some kind of Zen sht on the defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kinda like how NBA clowns used to fall for Bird's slow as head fake every time. I mean they jump outta their drawers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconsfan567 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 This was one of the reasons I was rooting for him to comeback. Tony also only needs 732 yards to be the 5th player to ever get 15,000 receiving yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freebird310 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 If we win a bowl this year, and send him out that way, it will be immortalized by NFL films for years, when we are 90 years old and chit, the NFL films, " Tony G and the Birds of 2013 " will be coming on at 2am on NFLN ....this chit must come to pass ....

jimifalcon Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I imagine that someday the falcons trade up for super dude QB,that breaks all of Matty Ice's records and they replay all the dream team 4 lombardi falcon's teamgames and I can say to the nuggets on the board,I was there,I saw matt,tony g,jj,roddy et al.and they will say "yeah but that was in the OLD days" and they will ***** about the coaches and rank on each other and all will be well in my universe!It could happen.

Dirty_Bird89 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Father time was supposed to catch up with Tony G 5 years ago, but he's still a beast. I'm convinced he'll never die Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
