Tom Brady on the Bucs

Back on March 20th Tom Brady decided to leave the New England Patriots,  whom he had been playing with for since the year 2000. He had signed a two year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers coming off an underwhelming 7-9 record and had looked to upgrade their Quarterback position. Brady has just since made his debut with the Buccaneers which resulted in a loss to the New Orleans Saints. 

It seems pretty bizarre to see Tom Brady on any other football team other than the New England Patriots and will take some time to get used to. The 6 time super bowl champion has racked up over 74,000 career passing yards and over 500 touchdowns. He has won many awards in his career winning three NFL most valuable player awards (2007,2010,2017) NFL comeback player of the year award (2009) and Sports illustrated Sportsperson of the year (2005). Brady has broken many records in his career such as the total number of yards in NFL history (82.987), Super bowl appearances (9), Super bowl wins (6) and Super bowl MVPs (4) with many more records. 

Brady’s debut with the Buccaneers seemed to be a bit underwhelming considering the high standard that is put on him to be so great. Brady has 239 passing yards along with 2 touchdown passes and 2 interceptions. He also finished his first game off with a 78.4 quarterback rating which is low compared to his career average rating of 96.9. These stats came out with a 23 to 34 loss to Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints. Brady and the bucs look to bounce back against a Christain McCaffery led Carolina Panthers team.

Students Get Used to Our COVID-19 Rules By: Alina Prykazka This year at Bishop Foley Catholic High School students and teachers finally arrive back at school, but with new rules and challenges to face. Everyone in the building has to wear a mask, as social distance in the hallways and in classrooms.  While eating lunch in the cafeteria, only 1-3 students are allowed at each lunch table. Surely, it must be difficult for staff and students to interact with each other with these masks covering their mouth and nose, while also maintaining a good 4-6 feet away from each person.  Sometimes change is difficult to adjust to. Some students and teachers say they have a hard time breathing in the masks, others work just fine with it. Some people have a hard time hearing others, when the other person is wearing a mask. You can not see their lip movements, which means you have to understand them only based on hearing. Of course, teachers Mrs. Cleghorn and Mrs. Petty have thought ahead ...
