Yeah that's cool and all, its nice he's committed and loves his wife...

But why women always giving ultimatums? "Either you love me and do what I say or I'm leaving" WTF is that? That shyt ain't love on the females part at all.

Nah, it can come from a place of love.

My lady pulled a similar move on me. When I wouldn't quit a job I was completely miserable at because of how much money I was making. Sometimes brehs need someone close to them to intervene.

Women give ultimat
I think that health was a part of it, but you really don't think a part of her was being selfish?

She married him knowing he loved football and to be an all time great you have to commit everything you have to the sport. She didn't like that and gave him the ultimatum.
Most women are selfish nah f that all women are. They hate seeing a man with a commitment and a passion outside of her and the kids. A womans whole commitment is to be a wife and mother. A mans commitment is our purpose. Whether we leading companies or playing a sport we love.

Above the fray.
His body could not handle NFL seasons. She'd be a fool to not try and influence him to leave.
Yeah, these dudes are talking out of their asses. None have played pro sports and few have a person in their corner looking out for their best interests. They are repeating the words of football lifers, instead of their own.

He was tired of the bodily injury, rehab and his wife threatened to leave him if he didn't stop
She didn’t threaten to leave him if he stopped. She was tired of him shutting her out emotionally to keep the QB persona he never liked.

I kind of agree with @Tony D'Amato that Luck didn’t like being a pro QB.

This was a great read and Luck is an interesting guy. Football media would say that he is intelligent but never deep dive into him. This article did that and Luck is an honest and openly vulnerable dude.

I just finished the article and it was incredible

I really liked him as a player and reading his journey and what he was going through mentally and physically was great..

He had it all and then he just was like I can't do this anymore the rehab was just too much

One of the best articles I've ever read on an athlete
So why’d he retire? :unimpressed:

My guess is that she also saw how hard it was on his mental heath and the physical toll of trying to continue and she couldnt continue to stand by as they had plenty of money and to her it just wasnt worth the risk.

The signs were showing up his physical and mental health were deteriorating. He brought home Wrangler jeans. We know how Favre turned out.
