"His business" which also functions as a way of circumventing the salary cap.

Guerrero’s past has not dissuaded the Patriots from forging a business relationship with the company he owns with Brady, the TB12 Sports Therapy Center, at the Patriots Place complex adjacent to Gillette Stadium. Since the center opened in 2013, the team has paid the company for Guerrero and his staff to provide treatment services and nutritional advice to multiple Patriots players.

 

Within the rules.  Again.  Stop hating the Patriots (organization, coach, QB) for being smarter than the rest of the league.  It's pathetic.

I don’t hate smart. I’m not a big fan of cheaters. They’ve been fined and docked draft choices on multiple occasions. I don’t think they’ve gone cold turkey...just been more careful.

I did not see anything in the article to suggest that Guerero is connected with PED pushing.  He sounds a bit like a snake oil peddler.  It will be interesting to follow, however.

Belicheat wouldn't suspend his connection to team for snake oil. Had to have been something stronger than that?

Is it? Or is it more correct to say: "An arrangement which has not, thus far, been found to be in violation of the NFL's salary cap rules."  If the story is correct that Guerrero is now banned from the Patriots' facilities (not the TB12 center), that would suggest a bit of trepidation on the part of the Pats' brass about exactly how kosher this arrangement may be, no?

All accounting gimmicks are "within the rules" until the powers that be test them by taking an enforcement action.

I'm pretty confident that BB/TB were far ahead of this story coming out.  BB pulled the plug, I'm sure, at the right time.  They push the envelope with every rule the NFL has.  They know the NFL rules probably better than Goodell does.  They definitely know the on field rules better than any ref.  It's why they win.  They are better and they are smarter.  And everyone here is just pissed because they don't work for the Bills.

I don't understand how brady hasn't been under ped scrutiny. He's doing things that nobody has ever done and it's all supposed to be this great work out he does. Yeah bull. The guy has been getting better as he ages. 

Avocados and kale. If you are still curious you can purchase his cookbook for $200. The cult of TB12 is going the way of the church of Scientology. 

I have a feeling they are going to regret reading Jimmy G.

Plus he never seems to get rattled no matter how many times he’s walloped by 350-lb.  defensive lineman.  Pops right back up, every time.

I was wondering: if they hadn't come back against the Falcons in the Super Bowl, would they have pulled a Brett Favre-for-Aaron Rodgers move and at least paved the way for Jimmy to take over in 2018?  I have a feeling a lot of teams are going to regret not making a better offer for JG.  He has immediately turned a very young 49ers team into a legitimate competitor for 2018, and I have no doubt now that they'll keep him, even if it requires a franchise tag threat to re-sign him.

Well at least Ralph fooled drunk Bob once and it helped keep the Bills in Buffalo.

Best part of story: Before becoming associated with Brady, Guerrero ran afoul of the Federal Trade Commission by claiming his nutritional supplement “Supreme Greens” could cure terminal illness. 

 

There is a thread just like this on PPP.
