“What you know is limited, and what you don’t know is limitless” - Tom Brady

sounds like a Jim Kwik quote
My dad was a huge Michigan fan and when he'd watch Tom Brady play, he'd say, "this guy almost never throws an interception" or "this guy is just a solid QB" or "this guy knows how to read a defense". Brady was never flashy when he played for Michigan and he just flew under the radar.
So you would watch your dad watch Tom Brady, is that right?
@fleafly70 I wish I could watch Michigan football with my dad, but he passed away 6 Yeats ago. Michigan football was a staple in our house on Saturdays. Pretty crazy for a bunch of Canadian eh 😆.
Did That Same Coach Also Teach You How To Deflate The Football,And To Record The Other Team Defensive Practices,So You Would Know Their Sets And Signals,That Way You Can Take Advantage Of Their Defense?
I remember that game when Tom Brady beat Penn State, which was the 2nd best team in the country at the time. Brady, the A-Train, David Terrell... The Wolverines were loaded back then.
@saabguy303, Can we get someone to teach you the proper utilization of capital letters in English orthography?
No matter how you spin it, Tom is an honest guy. Watching the Pats without him is just not the same. You could almost guarantee Tom would march down the field and most likely score. Oh yeah the good old days.
right. but if he was black it would be about how he has two baby mommas (giselle and some other woman)and hes a great athlete.... not just a great athlete.
@@Zen-hq8fvnah you’re just envious
@@spa9920 cry more
I love all of these people that try to rank Belichek's input above Brady's. What an enormous joke. Belichek without Brady can barely make the playoffs.
he even made us lowly Bucs fans feel that way for 3 years. even down 20 TFG still has a chance.
Tom Brady consistently took less money to build the team. I taught English at a private school in Massachusetts. Of course, we were all Pats and Brady fans. When the seniors came back from Christmas break, "senioritis" would squelch their work ethic. That is when I took one full class for Brady day. I would show clips from Brady's start, the shirtless no muscles shot, his anxiety at waiting for his NFL draft, and his comments about how he achieved his great successes. I showed clips of Brady and the Pats..the come backs, the super bowls. Yes, my students were glued to the presentation. Even the students who did not love English Lit. At the end of the class, I told my students that today was not about Brady. It was about each of them doing their personal best every day. They would thank me as they walked out the door. Brady has great lessons to teach. This interview is a fine clip if you have students needing a dose of motivation. Thank you , Mr. Brady. You were everything to my students.
You’re an awesome teacher for that
Aww, thank you. His last year as a Pat, I managed to sneak in an essay assignment on would Brady stay or go. Am retired in FL now and got to watch Brady win the SB for the Buccs. Moved here that very year. BTW, You should have seen my Lady Macbeth!@@fiat_ow7876
Great teaching lesson. I was a Pats fan, and I used to bring football metaphors into the college classroom, but unfortunately I was teaching in NYC so I had to be careful about Patriot examples, especially since the Giants kicked the Patriots twice in the super bowl. In order to get them to the class room on time, I used to quote Tom Couglin who was famous for dunning players late to player meetings and was famous for saying "If you're not early, you're late". Which essentially means plan for contingencies. It didn't change them much.
We had a great hockey team. They were crazy for the Bruins. I told those who misbehaved that they were in the penalty box and next was a game misconduct. Bet yours were great!
That’s a prime example of quality teaching, addressing the problem and tailored to the students.
"what you know is limited, what you dont know is limitless" -TB12
He tells his story in a way that captivates the listener. I had no idea he struggled that much and then went on to become one of the greats. Great interview, great storytelling.
? ONE OF THE GREATS? THE GREATEST ... PERIOD.............
And people often say that the refs were always on his side, the guy always worked his behind off.
Real talk because although I actually played in 3 out of 18 JV games i was nowhere near as driven as him. I played DE at 135 😅😅 got tossed around a lot but it made me hit harder in Oklahoma drill.
wonder where Drew Henson is?
@@markmac2206he's on sports talk radio I believe
My experience watching Brady was much like watching Michael Jordan. MJ would destroy my team so often that i just hated the guy. But after a while, you come to realize you are watching greatness. Then the hate turns to respect. This was what it felt like watching Brady rip my teams heart out over and over. Respect.
what has helped me the most is him actually being a person. not that methodical patriot way. just like peyton after the game everyone found out he was funny.
I was thinking the same thing. I hated watching MJ rip apart the Knicks back in the day, but watching his interviews years later........I tip my cap to him. Same deal with Brady............I couldn't stand watching him dismantle the Jets, but OMG his story of hanging in there, not quitting is so admirable.
@@heatsuckmy They both seem like standup individuals. I didn't have the same feeling towards Peyton while he was playing though. At least my team was able to upset his every once in a while. But Brady? Pshh. Everytime I thought my team had the win in hand, Brady and the Patriots would pull off some miracle in the 4th quarter to grab victory right out of our hands. He seemed unbeatable and it was infuriating lol. One of the most clutch players I've ever seen in any sport.
As a sonics fan as a teen, I had the exact MJ thought process. I'm grateful to have seen him playing ball
I think a lot of people can relate to your feelings on Tom 😂
Best NFL player and team leader of all time. Football will never be the same without him.
Him and Ray Lewis
Not the best player but the greatest winner of all time
@@erikt3672 “Best” is a relative term and we can at least certainly say he’s the best QB of all time. If “winning” isn’t the benchmark that determines “best” then I’m not sure what is comparable?
I agree
@@datsumcrzysht football is a team sport. You can play on an incredible team and gain more accolades for doing so. I think the only time when “the best” can really be clear is in individual sports such as tennis, boxing, MMA, etc. and even then it’s rarely truly clear. Brady is great and surely a winner. But I would say for instance that Deion Sanders is a better football player in terms of being the perhaps the best corner ever (on tape) and stats and overall athletically one of the greatest football players of all time. I don’t think that you can say that on the field Brady was a better player than say a Dan Marino or an Aaron Rodgers. But he has more rings. So he’s a far better winner. This is what I meant
He was the last connection to the old school football and that was the best. Tom Brady thank you.
Tom Brady????
Old school? Guess it depends on your definition of old.
@@johndailey2323 He was in the game and successful before it became soft. Dude shared a field with Jerry Rice
@@BoosterGoldEarth6 but he's also the reason for a lot of rule changes especially hits on QBs. Can't touch Brady or it's a penalty
Now we have Brock Purdy, Kittle, CMC, Deebo, plenty of good football players that will always be remembered as some of the best and most awesome players. I hear ya, but hey, new guys are in and doing phenomenal things just like Brady did. 😃
An underrated part is how encouraging Toms parent were
The thing I took away the most is the importance of encouraging parenting.
That's not underrated dude
Do we understand what underrated actually means?
It is actually probably him being tall. Most QBs have to be about 6ft 2. That is the average height of MLB as well. Don't even start about NBA.
Yo honestly... This is one of the most inspiring stories I've ever heard. I kind of knew that he was doubted going into the draft, but I didn't realize he just lost and lost and lost and lost and lost to people with better physical skills and a better reputation than him, throughout the beginning of his career. This is so deeply motivating.
Top comment
THIS is what makes TB12 phenomenal. People only think about the GOAT after 20+ yr of sustained greatness. He is THE reason I loved football for 23 seasons😊 He is great because of his mentality not physical skills!
and he NEVER quit, even when the situation was against him. Wished I listened to him when I was a kid in HS.
Penn State fan here, however Michigan would have done better that year if they'd just stuck with Brady throughout. Like the host said at the beginning. there were times Tom was alternating series with Hansen. Almost impossible to get a feel for the game, or to even try and generate momentum, let alone hold onto it. I remember many games they'd play Drew extensively, be losing and then put Tom on the field so he could pull their fat out of the fire. So yeah, " if you have two QB's you have none." I imagine, Lloyd Carr probably wanted to play Tom, knowing he earned it. But was probably under extreme pressure from boosters and such to play the ' home grown ' Michigan kid Drew.
It really shouldn’t be all that crazy at how he was seen before the Draft. He didn’t have anything physically or athletically that was exciting to prop him above a lot of prospects. And even his beginning years in the NFL weren’t especially impressive in the sense of lighting the league up offensively. People tend to forget that in some of the beginning years he was mostly managing games more than being the guy lighting it up and winning the games. Tom didn’t have a rating over 90 until 2004 for example. But he always showed up in the clutch moments where he had to have that drive with the game on the line. The issue is we often evaluate that time period and what teams were seeing against the hindsight of what he became. The problem is that the metrics measure a prospect by isn’t what made Tom great. His greatness was his mind and his work ethic not his talents. And the pre draft process doesn’t really measure that unless you spend time talking to the guy to learn that. And if a guy doesn’t have the physical traits or film that make you want to talk to him you’re not going to learn those things.
We’ve gotten to watch greatness for the last 20 years now we get to listen and learn for the next 20. Brady with a mic is incredible
It’s crazy how the qb unless a runner.. and even then, how protected they are. The CTE you always seem to hear about never really a QB. I could be wrong though.
Keep this man off helicopters at all cost!!
I think now in Tom's retirement more people will understand what made him the GOAT of his sport. And why he got 7 rings. Because people will understand that nobody took advantage of every opportunity that came in life related to football, better than Tom. To paraphrase, "what you know is limited", but what you don't know is limitless" Tom never saw himself as a master of the game, but an endless student of the game, which is what made him the GOAT.
@@Hoodlum728the big thing is just the nature of certain positions. O lineman also deal with Cte at a much lower rate than the other positions because their position isn't asked to dive head first in a 270 lb linebacker who wants to blow your head off
@@christianswanger123 100% agree, I was just saying that I don’t think I’ve seen a case with qb. But yeah the rb is crazy, especially how devalued they have become.
My favorite story about Tom Brady that was told by John Madden, was how Tom Brady was slow, so he went jump roping every day. The next season, he was still slow, but he kept jump roping. Then, the next season, Tom Brady was still slow. Thank you John Madden, your storytelling was always entertaining.
😂😂😂
What an incredible story. This should be shown to every single young athlete.
I was thinking the CU Buffs.
He should become a motivational speaker. I get inspired just listening to him tell his story. Middle class kid that wasn’t given anything. He has earned everything he has accomplished. Hard work equals great results and that’s a fact!
There was one thing I saw where he was talking about his diet and showing what was in his fridge. I've been a healthier eating fitter person ever since, and I hated this dude for years!
Brady was my favorite player when he played for Michigan. His senior year he battled Henson for the starting job but it was clear he was better, finally he was the full time starter after like the 4th game and he was spectacular the rest of the season. I was thinking he could make it in the NFL after he beat Alabama. I thought he could be decent in the NFL but never did I expect him to become the goat.
I am a MU fan and always had a good feeling about him but same didn't think he'd reach that level.
His story is amazing. He’s just a good athlete and he turned himself into the greatest. How can a guy who runs so slow, has nothing special physically do it? An inspiration to so many.
@wjrs5 His timing, his work ethic being borderline obsessive, eat/sleep/thinking football all the time, and his of course love for learning the game and defenses and how to read defenses.
By focusing on what you have on the inside, a brain and heart. I’ve never been so grateful until after watching this.
Messi is not fastest or strongest and is the goat
@@mmor7380 a lot would seriously disagree with you about Messi (Ronaldo, Maradona and others) but Brady is unquestionably the GOAT quarterback.
Brains. General managers in all sports do not give enough credit for brains when they are drafting players.
He’s a very humble guy. Obviously he has talent beyond what even other great athletes have, he just doesn’t seem to realize it!
He always has been humbled so people that’s humbled turn into the greatest of all time the real definition of the G.O.A.T you got to stay humbled
Staying humble and hungry👍👍
@roxiecariere5713 well said!
His greatest weapon was his ability to play better under pressure. No matter how many stupid combines you do youl never find that out until you play him
Humility is actually an incredibly strong trait to have because it can boost your performance on and off the field, improve the quality of your relationships, and even support mental well-being in the face of adversity.
Another inherent trait TB12 was born with, an exceptionally high natural IQ, which correlates heavily to success at the QB position and it’s integral cerebral nature. Tom Brady’s 33 Wonderlic score is significantly high, and the NFL should’ve never scrapped it. As a black man, we should know there is differences in averages of races, but it doesn’t mean we can’t succeed. The last fully Black quarterback to win was Russell Wilson, who was a 4.0 GPA and 28 wonderlic which is above average. When Deion Sanders said you want people with high grades etc for QB that’s what he means. Those with high intellectual faculties, to read defenses, study film and adapt on the fly.
Spot on!!
Man Brady is such a great storyteller. Need to watch the full interview now.
where can we ?
The stories he must have. Guarantee they make a “last dance” for his NE days at some point.
BRADY WAS THE FACE OF THE N.F.L. WAS THE BEST Q.B. IN MY TIME. HATS OFF TO HIM.
He got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught?
I’m a patriots fan and for him to lose that perfect season 18-1 is wholesome for Toms life man. Dude still got back to MULTIPLE super bowls.
IF my Giants hadn't choked against the Packers in that 2016-17 season, and Odell hadn't ran off to Cleveland, I think that we would've been able to beat Dallas again for a 3rd time that year, AND I think we would've won by a single score over the Atlanta Falcons in the conference championship. Mostly because Eli was locked in that Packers game. I feel we would've been able to seriously beat the Patriots. Keep it a low score, keep it close, keep the pressure on Brady, and make those big-time plays we had made all season long in the 4th quarter. Edit: I somewhat wish Eli would've just left and won a title with another team.
Check the tape of Tyree catch: both Jarvis Green and Ricard Seymour being held...officials scared to death to throw a flag
He got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught?
@@leemontoya8028 don't tell me you are the "smart" person, I have an IQ test question for you: is 💉😷 real? I bet you couldn't wait to roll up your sleeve🤔🤯
One of my favorite memories is having dinner with Tom Brady at the Capitol Grille, in Boston. He’s one of the most down to earth, sincere and kind human beings I’ve ever met.
That is a great story. Must be a great memory!
Did he talk to you about when he got caught cheating at the game?
@@leemontoya8028 Probably talked about how he could buy your life and piss on all of it.
This is exactly how my family remembers it. Quite honestly, it never felt like Tom was respected at Michigan. Drew Henson looked more athletic and like he had more swag and we got the sense most people favored him over the steady-as-he-goes Tom.
"With the 199th pick of the 2000 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots select Tom Brady, quarterback, Michigan". Six QB's were drafted before him. Tom won 7 Super Bowls. This will only happen once in the history of football and, yes, he is the GOAT. When his draft pick was called the world had no idea what was about to happen.
Perseverance. He could have easily said, forget it. Tons of kids would have quit that Freshman year in HS, tons of kids would have given up after a couple of years of college and transfered somewhere else. What he has mentally not as much physically is what got him where he is.
Great Man on and off the field. The way he talks about his football career during his youth days and remembers so vividly. Reminds me of how my friends and I talk about our old football days.
He got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught? Yes! What a great Inspiration!
i'm gonna be watching this for days. i'm in my early 40s and i still get fired up and wanna work very hard and get after it after hearing TB speak. as a bengals fan i respect the guy. been following him since 2001. GET AFTER IT PEOPLE WE HAVE ONE LIFE TO LIVE. lets do this.
Amen. Sh*t after watching Tom speak in this video, I am suddenly motivated. He should be a coach.
Hell yeah brother . Respect from a pats fan
@@luigivincenz3843 Praying he coaches at Michigan
Colts fans forced to admit. He is just a great guy really. It’s like he is so eager to share how he did it. What it means to be a champion
One of the greatest football minds i have to admit he is the great one TOM BRADY you made my sundays miserable for 20 years i am a dolphin fan GOD BLESS YOU 🎉
The story is his willingness to learn from his coaches/mentors and be a relentless student, always striving to get better. "Identifying your weaknesses" is one of the keys to his success. Being self aware allowed him to see the standard it took to be great and that it was within his reach. The struggle to play at Michigan was crucial in his development to be great at the next level.
I grew up in Mich & was a big U-M fan. Frosh Drew Henson was the hot, superstar prospect- so Sr Tom Brady had to split snaps. To the press anyway, Brady was classy as can be.
Tom Brady second string on a 0-8 team. I know it’s been 30+ years, but heads still need to roll. 😁
Reality beats fiction!
Facts
😂😂
Wasn't he talking about high school? He was just a kid.
@@Roy-mw5js he was talking about high school. Michigan was pretty good when he was there. He was better than Henson but Henson was higher ranked recruit so they gave him too many chances. Brady led them back for several big wins. So it had to be high school because in college Brady was technically 2nd string but saw alot of action and his team was actually a good team in college.
Met Tom for the first time, the Summer heading into my Junior yr in HS the QB Camp he talked about (RIP Tom Martinez). We were also in the same HS League. When we officially met that Summer, he had just graduated from Serra High and was headed to Michigan. Since I was obsessed with football I studied Tom at that Camp. After each Camp practice I would actually run routes for him, because even though I was a HS QB as well, I knew I would be switching to DB or WR in College. Tom was always on time and always wanted to put in extra work at practice. Always! He worked his way to become the most decorated QB Ever. Never thought that would happen, catching balls from him that Summer at Coach Martinez's Camp. Tom's Team was at the bottom of the League when we were in with my school Archbishop Riordan. No one anticipated what he has become. Which is great for all of us! It's about putting in the work. Tom's Success was all about him obsessing over Football and becoming the most Competitive person in the room, until you win!
True story. Went to same HS, 5 yrs ago, flew home because a friend had cancer. and stopped by HS and caught up with my old swim coach and told him why I was in town. A few days later fed ex deliver an autographed TB football to him in the hospital. No idea what happened, but wow. We had many great athletes, Barry Bonds Greg Jeffries etc. and Tom is the only one who really gave back.
Barry Bonds*
@@nateb4543 yep, delivered pizza to his dad alot. In Philly, sat on 3rd base line, he heard me sing hs chant, didn’t care.
@Ok-551 it was a joke. Listing Barry Bonds with an *...ya know...cause the steroids. Regardless, he's an absolute all time A list athlete and thats awesome
@@nateb4543 no doubt. Watching them walk in runners was insane. Sat behind dugout when he broke record.
I can definitely see where the "I'm the best decision you're organisation has ever made" attitude came from. Relentless competition, dedication and focused practice.
Many idiots probably say that. They're probably usually wrong. It was bound to be true at some point.
The lack of ego and his humility is just beautiful.
Honestly didn’t realize Tom was this intelligent and articulate. He’s got a high vocabulary and speaks fluently with no pauses or stuttering… his IQ must be off the charts and in turn why his Football IQ is off the charts lol
Off the charts IQ and work ethic and never lost that chip on his shoulder.
Been a New Englander my whole life, Pats fan since 94... Thanks so much for the memories, Tom.
The most amazing thing about Brady was that he made an accomplished player in Bledsoe pretty much a footnote!!
He got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught?
Never been a Brady fan, but I can't help but have respect for him
This dude is a very sobering presence. He's confident, but it's earned confidence, because he still remembers who he was before he was a finished product. There's a rare streak of humility and self-awareness with this man. I really hope he rubs off on Shadeur Sanders a bit more.
I was blessed to have watched TB play at Michigan. The thing is, it was so easy to see he had the "IT" factor. He was a leader and he knew how to motivate his teammates to get the job done. I will say, I always knew he would be a success in the NFL. I am surprised it took so long for Lloyd Carr to figure it out, but he made too many promises to Drew Henson, who ended up going to the Yankees for a bit. Once Lloyd figured it out, the rest is history. I'll never forget that 1999 Alabama Orange Bowl game. Thanks Tom!
To be fair, at the time, no one had ever seen an athlete like Drew Henson....he was the second coming of Bo Jackson and had set so many national high school records in football AND baseball.
The whole beginning of this story are things in his life that helped build the foundation of who he is, being on a shittty team but still wanting to play, being 1 of 3 ppl to consistently show up to 6am workouts on school days lol = Goat mode
Michigan's current quarterback, junior JJ McCarthy, reminds me of Tom Brady. Same leadership of the team and confidence.
Evidence of extremely hard work, grit, and talent.
Are you talking about Tom? he got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught?
The game is never over with Tom Brady as your QB.
It’s a great story of hype vs results. I’m a die-hard Michigan fan and even I was always blah on Brady. No one flew under the radar better. And it was all there on display. He got results, especially when it counted. Next to maybe Jeff George and Matt Stafford have I never seen an arm like Drew Hensons. It was amazing to witness. Just flicked his wrist and threw a laser. But……he couldn’t win. They fell in love with Drew’s arm while overlooking Tom’s ability to win.
I wish Tom would tell his story more. He’s great example of it’s not where you started it’s where you finished.
The hardships it relentlessly took to improve created a phenom & The 🐐
Tom Brady . I've been a die hard Patriots fan since I was 10 years old,1976. Steve Grogan days. Tom has been a dream come true to me. So many years of sh@t talking he gave me and alot of NFL enjoyment. God Bless Tom Brady.
Brady sets a great example to people of all ages everywhere👍👍
The fact that Tom was not intimidated by the stadium for the Wolverines, says a lot.
His drive and self belief and awareness is nuts
I never thought Tom was the best at anything as it relates to football but he wanted it the most.
Tom is such a great genuine guy!❤
Brady while talking is like cooking words of wisdom. My mind is full after eating these food for the thought. 💪
Brady is the man !
Tom is such a great leader of men that I can see him entering coaching at some point and making a difference on college kids lives
The most inspirational story I've ever heard. ❤
This motivated me to workout and eat clean. If Tom Brady looks like that at 45 I am optimistic about my 40s.
Tom is an amazing motivational speaker
Great story. Tom Brady is the ultimate competitor. He maximized his human potential. That is why he is the greatest. Because he did not have all the natural god given ability, he had to go beyond everyone else and that is what.made him the best. My utmost praise and respect for this man. Everyone can learn from him. It was an honor to watch you play Quarterback. You are a legion God bless you and all the worlds happiness and peace. I never😊 got to meet muhammed ali . I can only hope to meet you and shake the hand of greatness one day. It would be a honor. Please people dont miss what i am saying.. He is the ultimate example of how to maximize your human potential to fulfill your goals and dreams in life.😮
Tom is really a funny and likable guy. His approach is nothing short of genius. Sometimes not knowing the odds is a blessing!
Imagine looking back, and showing up with Tom Brady as he does these rope drills in high school, before he was anything. Just some guy trying to stay on the team. And he goes on to be Tom Brady. I'm sure the guys there have stories to tell their grandkids.
It's interesting how different he is in interviews since he retired. Seems way more to the point and entertaining.
Man Brady is really humble, and probably very correct when he says that he couldn't have succeeded without the help of alot of people. He let go of his ego to succeed. This is the type of athlete kids need to look up to. Props to you Tom!! 👏👏👏
Not just athletes but everyone could learn to let their ego go to succeed
I used to hate Tom Brady. Now I love Tom Brady. I wish he would get into politics and help this country.
could listen to TB talk all day. man is so knowledgeable and entertaining
Just a great interview! Appreciate how PBD has fostered an atmosphere where Tom felt really comfortable opening up. Tom is living proof of the value that hard work, dedication, and a positive, never-give-up attitude can take a person wherever they want to go. Imagine if he didn't have these traits he would NEVER have realized his true potential and we would never have had the privilege of experiencing the GOAT!! To repeat a previous post, “What you know is limited, and what you don’t know is limitless” - Tom Brady Never heard this before until now but it's so true! Thanks Tom for everything, it was a pleasure watching your Journey, something most of us will NEVER experience in a lifetime.
This was a priceless segment, I took some key points from this. Make the most of the opportunity. Yes yes we heard it all before, but how this story differs was the mindset shift to get those two perfect reps in and not worry about the guys with 20,10 etc.
Thanks for going to the Bucs and winning a SB! We will always appreciate everything you've done over the years. To be the best always learn from the best!
It was interesting to see Tom transport back to the past in his mind. You could almost see him change into teenager and relive the past.
Such a BEAST! Love you GOAT. - JETS fan
What a likable guy.
I fucking love this man. I can't relate to a guy like Mahomes or Rodgers. They have innate god given talent that is unattainable for almost everyone. But I can look at a guy like Tom and just really see what's possible. He is an inspiration to everyone. Even though he did have some genetic gifts that not alot of people bring up. For 1, he is 6ft4, which is elite, and his arm was actually super strong. Which people didn't like to admit.
Third - and this is the elephant in the room that people continuously ignore - he could easily beat in looks any of the Sexiest Man Alive. That what makes Tom extraordinarily great - an athlete that good isn't supposed to look that great! 😂😂😂
@@s.t.santos5928 Yah. I suppose.
I LOVE TOM BRADY WAS NEVER A PATRIOTS FAN JUST A Huge !!! TOM BRADY FAN ❤
As a Patriots fan, so good to hear Tom talk from the heart. Great stuff, great story. He is usually too measured but very natural in this platform.
So many kids have the same things happen to them with football (or any sport) in high school but so few are willing to commit the way Tom did to get better in every way, every day. Lookng for a reason to fail, an excuse to let themselves off the hook .. i only get 2 reps is a great example.. "what could i do?" .. quick answer? EVERYTHING
What an amazing interview. He pulled me into his story and I felt like I was there with him! Love his humble demeanor
Tom Brady. Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan and yes Lebron James. Serena Williams and Tiger woods. They entertained us so much these last 25/30 years. We are so blessed
I was at the Vault Conference and was inspired by Brady and Tyson. One thing Brady showed is you don’t necessarily have to be the most talented but can overcome that with hard work, dedication and consistency
It's fixed. May as well take inspiration from HHH
Tom is a perfect example of nfl combines being a waste of time. You cant judge talent with run ,jump and throwing drills with no pressure added. You put the best vs the best in trial games
Man. I wish I was there in person for the conference!!! Great work PBD and team!!
So blessed i was able to experience the Tom Brady era as a Buccaneers fan
This man is a true legend as a human and a player. One person to really look up to.
He got caught cheating playing the game! got suspended for 4 games! instead of taking his punishment he bitched and hired a Lawyer! it just makes a smart person wonder! how many of those rings he has! he cheated and didn't get caught? Looking up to a a Cheater! Is not Wise!
@@leemontoya8028 mate you’re so fucking smooth Brained go home 😂 Eli manning has admitted to doing the same thing on multiple occasions
PBD is such a great interviewer, he asks such specific questions and let's the guest talk
This guy is an amazing storyteller and very funny.
Happy for Valuetainment, PBD Earned this Guest that 100% brought it. Its Gold.
Absolutely true about worth ethic, and determination! Also don’t let failures detour you! Loved the interview🤗
I could listen to Tom’s story’s all day
And he did give his best each and every game. That man was hard to beat. As an life long Eagles fan I learned in two superbowls against Tom what kind of football it took to beat him. Perfect football. We didn't get it done the first time because we didn't play perfect football. But by God Nick Foles came and out perfect Mr. Brady that day! It was great going against the best. You really found out how good you were. Thanks Tom . Now go reap the rewards for all your hard work.
Great story! Great story teller! A real star! And excellent interview from Pat!
Hey Patrick, only watched this so far of this interview but nice job on letting him talk and express himself. Haven’t heard him in a true sit down interview but wow he’s actually good and you did a great job just sitting there not talking over him
Tom is so candid here. So willing to share his failures and embarrassing moments.
Such a great interview! Pat always gets the best guest so much great knowledge here
Damn, this is an odyssey of a journey...to greatness. A good lesson for the young "uns if they care to listen enough to get their faces out of their cell phones.
Wow! What a testament to the concept it is not where you start, but where you finish that counts. Brady deserves all his props, as he has earned them. And say that despite still insisting he fumbled on that snowy night at Foxboro so many years ago!
Truly Inspirational, the Power of Mind Set and Action We’ll Done Tommy!
That's the GOAT--PERIOD point blank. The best QB to EVER play the game. no discussion.
Whoa hold up. Can we at least discuss this for just a second?
