Kraft is Red Auerbach.
Belichick is Danny Ainge.
Red refused to trade Bird, McHale and Parish and the team ended up in purgatory. Because Red was emotional.
Kraft is the same way with Brady. Whom he considers one of his sons.
When Kraft made clear to Bill that Jimmy G was not going to replace Tom, Bill pulled a F U by trading him to SF for a relatively poor return; he clearly was worth more than a 2nd round pick in the marketplace.
I hope TB really does play well until he is 45, because that is how long it will take to groom his replacement out of the draft. And that assumes we draft another Jimmy G, not another Ryan Mallett.
Ugh.
