home this evening marks a Monumental
moment in my life it's a c celebration
of 20 years here in New England playing
for the
NFL I'm overwhelmed with gratitude and a
deep sense of
Honor so let me say thank you for all
that you've done to help me to help us
dreams you guys are
amazing what other fans in the world
would spend hours on Route One every
Sunday to get to a stadium in the middle
woods we've even got four guys who went
to jail for me sitting right here as rkk
I miss this place and I miss you and I
didn't even encourage you guys to get
lubed up tonight but you guys have shown
tonight tonight's a celebration of
everyone who's ever cared about this
organization everyone who has worked cheered
cheered
sacrificed for it past present and
future and I promise this isn't like the
last time I was on stage with rkk and
coach bich and Jules and grank and Randy
in La a month ago those were the hardest
hits I've ever taken in my
life but there nobody here is take any
any hits tonight I have so much love and
respect for you all if you spend time in
this organization you are
blessed we're
blessed because we learn so many things
that most people never have the
opportunity to learn that nothing of
significance in life is accomplish
lished as an
individual nobody individually hangs
does here in New England it's always
about we and us not me or
mine relationships are built on shared
experiences and the most meaningful
thing in my life are my
relationships I truly wish I had more
all so how do I sum up two decades in
New England and one short speech the
ample the answer is simple you can't
it's hard for me to properly express my
gratitude and my appreciation for how my
time here is added to my life there are
too many Lessons Learned too many
stories to be told too many incredible
moments and achievements we all
experience together it would take me 30
days to get through it all not 30 minutes
there are so many people to thank and I
apologize in advance if I leave anybody
out so with that being said thank you to
Foundation your love and your commitment
to your family is
unmatched to my sisters and me you are

you as much as you
deserve sometimes it takes someone to
believe in you when you don't believe in
yourself and along with so many other
me my sisters Moren Julie Nancy people

was the fourth best athlete in my own
house growing up I had no
choice my sisters would always stick up
for me when the older boy boys in the
neighborhood Paul and Bobby are sitting
right down there you did tell me go long
yeah go keep going Tommy keep going all
the way down the
street take a left yeah go that
way and then they would say game over

ways and my sisters there stood up me

Guerero my brother from another
mother our commitment to each other's
unmatch thank you for being who you are
a selfless dedicated goat and just so
everyone here knows without age
This Money Maker right here this thing
ago to
Myra Jonathan Danny Josh David
and Dana in the year 2000 I was drafted
as an immature 23-year-old kid and 20
years later I left New England as a much
older 42-year-old immature
kid but in that time I was taken in by a
family who loved me as a son and
embraced my family as one of their
own rkk look
around you fostered a culture of
excellence and integrity that has
bellich thank you for your thank you for
your tireless commitment to develop and
push me to be my very best it wasn't me
us our hard work our love of the game
and the way we work for one another
that's what it was all about let me make
this Christmas Crystal Clear there is no
coach in the world I would rather play
bellich to the countless coaches every
single one of you the assistants sitting
here tonight that are not here tonight
the Personnel Executives and Scouts
including Scott peoli
Charlie Josh and Billy to name a few we
spent so many hours in the hallways of
this stadium so many early morning
meetings and late night conversations I
know I'll go down as your least
demanding most even killed player you ever
ever
coached I hope you enjoy the time while it
lasted to the people of the New England
Patriots organization working behind the
scenes to make everything perfect so we
could just go out and
play the support staff the Health and
Medical Teams the business operations
the video Department the it the
nutrition the strength and conditioning
The Scouting the football Ops the
equipment staff media and community
relations the kitchen staff the people
who cleaned our locker rooms the list is
endless in every single one one of your
jobs wasn't as important as ours was on the
teammates 20 years
worth I wish I could mention all of you
by name but I'd be here all night please
know the incredible impact you had on me
by pushing me and us to play like
day every Stitch and every thread of
this beautiful red jacket is woven
together by the
experiences and adversities we endured
every single one of you made my life
better if you thought you learned a lot
from me the reality was I learned way
more from you
we fought together we bled Together We
Cried together we celebrated and won
together and I would go to battle with
any one of you guys cuz I know what
about in particular I want to say
something to all the offensive linemen I
made your job
hard your mission was to protect me and
as Dante would always say brady you
days three
days you guys were the backbone of this
team your
toughness and your tireless effort to
protect me allowed me to perform my best
it's all the quarterbacks I played with
we grinded together we challenged each
other we competed and most of the time I
ass but I could point to every single
one of you and tell you something that I
learned by watching you I love you guys
also Julian paid me $10,000 to mention
him by name so there you go [Applause]
[Applause]
fans am I proud of our championships yes
am I proud of our winning and Records
over the years yes but what I am
proudest of are the people whose lives
we impacted here and across the country
they might have cheered for us or
against us some may not have liked us
us sometimes when I ask myself why me
the answer is that I'm the messenger
here to tell the world just how amazing
you thank you for 20 years of passion
loyalty and
fire 20 years 17 division titles six
Super Bowls how did we do it what can we
learn and how can we apply those things
going forward the foundation of a
successful team a family or business is
asking what you can do to support the
mission the Patriots embodied that
everyone was committed to winning
everyone was selfless everyone was
always asking what can I do to help the team
team
win as the great John Wooden said
I get asked a lot if my kids play
football my response is that I'll
support them in any of their dreams
whatever makes them happy makes me happy
I would encourage everyone to play
football for the simple reason that it is
is
hard it's hard when you're young to wake
up in the offseason at 6:00 a.m. to go
train and work out knowing that all your
friends are sleeping in and eating
pancakes it's hard when you're on your
way to practice way down with all your
gear and it's 90° out and all the other
kids are at the pool or at the beach and
your body is already completely
exhausted from workouts in two a
days it's hard to throw catch block and
tackle and hit kids when they're way
bigger and way more developed than you
only to go home that night bruised and
battered and strained but knowing you
have to show up again the next day for
the just the chance to try again but
hard no matter who you are there are
bumps and hits and bruises along the way
and my advice is to prepare yourself
because football lessons teach us that
success and achievement come from
overcoming adversity unity and that team
accomplishment far exceeds anyone's individual
goals to be successful at anything the
truth is you don't have to be special
you just have to be what most people
aren't consistent determined and willing
to work for it no shortcuts if you look
at all my my teammates here tonight it
would be impossible to find better
examples of men who embody that work
ethic Integrity purpose determination
and discipline that it takes to be a
life we led by
example Nothing in life is of
significance is ever accomplished alone
that's the Patriot Way here in New
England we were the first team ever to
take the field in the super not as
us we did that and we were the best in
the world and history will never forget that
it is the honor of my life to take my
place among these other Patriot Hall of
Famers and to be officially enshrined
organization you humble me you make me
proud and I am eternally grateful
