Good afternoon, whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schomler.

This is Strong Opinion Sports episode 444.

It's a special episode all about Tom Brady's man in the arena, episode 9.

The title of this episode is Maybe.

And I did not quite catch on when I read the title, I'm like,

oh, it's a weird title, whatever, move on.

And I went, boom, oh my gosh.

And if you listen to every episode, which I do because I do every episode myself,

kind of weird, I guess I don't listen to it, but I know the content of every episode.

But if you're a person who listened to every episode I do, I actually talked about the Chinese farmer story a couple

episodes ago and I was like no way that's crazy I couldn't believe that Tom Brady

Affirming of a lot of the things I believe in, and affirming of something I always tell people, hey, you can learn a lot from Tom Brady.

Whether you're a football person or not, the way Tom Brady talks about life, the things he's achieved, what he's done on and off the field.

I mean he's got a lot of just achievement stuff and things you can learn from him and I just think

it's a lot you can learn even in this episode.

One note that's kind of interesting is that there's a clip here from September 2019

at the beginning of this episode.
