You don’t have to do that.

“And I thought he was wrong about Shannon. I thought what he did to Shannon was flagrantly wrong. And I called him, and he never reached back out. So, I stopped reaching out.”NFL broadcasting icons offer Tom Brady sage advice as he embarks on TV journey“We don’t speak much anymore,” Smith said. “He got upset over something he thought I said to JJ Redick, and he went on his podcast and attacked me for about 45 minutes.

“I’m never gonna speak against him per se, but our relationship admittedly hasn’t been the same since that moment. But it doesn’t mean I don’t love him; it doesn’t mean that I wish anything negative upon him because I don’t. He’s just going in a different direction, that’s what he chose to do and it’s cool.”
