Tom Brady Struggling To Focus On Personal Life During Season, Compares It To War

Tom Brady states he’s discovering it almost difficult to concentrate on his individual life half of the year … describing he seems like NFL seasons resemble “going away on deployment for the military.”

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers star clarified his battle with work-life balance while talking with Kevin Durant on today’s episode of the quarterback’s “Let’s Go” podcast.

The 45-year-old confessed despite the fact that he attempts to put a focus on particular elements of his off-field life throughout the football season … he constantly discovers himself buried in his task rather.

“I almost look at like a football season like you’re going away on deployment for the military,” Brady stated. “And it’s like, ‘Man, here I go again.'”

“The reality is,” he continued, “is you can really only be authentic to yourself. Right? Whatever you may say — ‘Ah, man, I want to, you know, make sure I spend a little more time doing this during the season,’ the reality is, is when it comes down to it, your competitiveness takes over and as much as you want to have this playful balance with the work balance — you’re going to end up doing exactly what you’ve always done, which is why you are who you are.”

The words appear to shed additional light on the marital concerns Brady is having with Gisele Bünchden. She’s desired him to step far from football for many years and be more of a hands-on married man. But he’s making it clear, he’s having a really tough time doing that.

In reality, he stated he directly specifies where all he appreciates in the fall and cold weather is wins and losses.

“You’re going to go, ‘How the f*** do I get it done?'” he stated. “‘What do I got to do for my teammates to get it done?'”
