In order to play every game, you got to train really hard, so I got to train really hard

at 44 years old, which is a big commitment, and to try to make those decisions or have

their challenges, and it's not like it was when I was 25, but I don't think any of us

feel like we were 25, but thankfully for good reasons there's parts where I'm happy

I'm not 25, and there's other parts where I wish I felt I was like a little more like

25, but you know, I have a very complex, tricky life in different aspects, and just trying

to navigate the best way I can.

Just a little snippet from Tom Brady, the goat met with reporters for the first time in

the 2022 offseason on Thursday in conjunction with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers mandatory

minicamp. He hasn't been around very much for the offseason program, but the mandatory

minicamp is something that nearly every player in the NFL shows up for absent an excuse

or some sort of contractual issue that causes him to stay away, and it was refreshing to

see him made available. There's no specific rules. I don't know, Shrine, you know those

better than I do. Good morning, Shrine, by the way, but it was also nice to see the assembled

reporters because my hopes were not high. I'll do respect that he was going to be asked

some of the questions that he really needed to be asked, but he was. So I was happy to

see that.

Well, and for I want to go back a little bit, Mike speaking of 45 and 25 and all this

and wish you a belated birthday two days ago, because that's unnecessary. The moment

is passed.

One celebrates more than I do. I think when it's your birthday because then we turn the

same age again. So I am happy that you are the same age as me now, but yeah, Brady, Brady
