Tony Gonzalez 97% Sure On Retirement - Per Teammate
Per ProFootballTalk:
"Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez won a playoff game for the first time in his career last week, an experience that left him quite emotional after Matt Bryant’s winning field goal went through the uprights. According to tight end Michael Palmer, it didn't make him any less likely to retire. Gonzalez has been sticking with an answer of “95 percent” all season when asked about the chances that this will be his final year as an NFL player, but Palmer said that Gonzalez actually upped the likelihood that he’ll be calling it quits. He told me today he’s moving up to 97-percent sure after that win last week,” Palmer said, via Mike Garafolo of USA Today. “From what I can get from him, if we win the Super Bowl, I think he’ll ride off into the sunset.” http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...on-retirement/ |

He upped it from 95% to 97%. That must have taken quite a bit of consideration.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Im probably going to get a lot of shit for this, but I hope he retires a Falcon. Love what he did for us on the field, but the dude was a whiny little bitch.

He will be on the Arrowhead ROF. That would be ultra shitty on his part after he was allowed to traded at his request(rumor).

He told me 2 years ago that he would retire a Chief, unless he got a ring in ATL, which he did not. Retiring as a Chief it will be.

Tony Gonzalez likely to return for more money, less offseason*work
Posted by Michael David Smith on March 10, 2013, 1:15 PM EDT Getty Images The Atlanta Falcons can probably get tight end Tony Gonzalez to return if they promise him two things: more money and less offseason work. Teammates believe that Gonzalez, who said last year that he was 95 percent sure he’d retire, will agree to come back if the Falcons show him the money and tell him he can take time off during training camp, according to Michael Silver of Yahoo Sports. “He will come back if they pay him $7 million and he doesn’t have to do training camp,” one Falcons player told Silver. A team source also told Silver, “If we offer him the money, he’ll most likely be back for one more. He’ll most likely be looking to miss training camp, though.” A $7 million salary is completely reasonable for a player who is the top tight end on our list of this year’s best free agents. In fact, Gonzalez will probably have other teams offering him more money than that, although indications are that if Gonzalez is going to play at all in 2013, it’s going to be in Atlanta. As for getting to miss training camp, the Falcons likely wouldn’t have a problem with that. Gonzalez always takes good care of himself and stays in great shape year-round, and he knows the Falcons’ offense and won’t need long to get back into rhythm when the season starts. We won’t know until we hear it from Gonzalez himself whether he’s going to play in 2013. But the smart money is now on Gonzalez coming back for one more year. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ffseason-work/ |

I don't get the Tony G hate.
Guy played his ass off and languished on a shitty Herm Edwards team. Every single one of the bitches in these threads complaining about him would take him back in a ****ing heartbeat. |
