-- Tom Brady joked he was quitting Twitter earlier this week but then was “back at it” with a tweet about the Red Sox and followed by a video of a pretty cool moment.

Brady tweeted the short clip on Wednesday, showing him getting ready to get back to working on his craft, accompanied by Alex Guerrero, and he found something special inside his helmet.

“Confetti,” Brady said, holding up the small piece from the Patriots’ Super Bowl win in February. 

As it flies away, Brady asks, “Did we keep the other confetti?”
