Tom Brady Gives Epis Speech About Football And Life
The full speech is absolutely incredible where Brady talks about why football is so important and how it can be a powerful analogy of life and obtaining success in life:
“I urge everyone to play football for the simple reason that it is hard,” Brady said. “it’s hard when you’re young to wake up in the offseason at 6 a.m. to go train and work out, knowing that all of your friends are sleeping in and eating pancakes. It’s hard when you’re on your way to practice, weighed down with all your gear, and its 90 degrees out and all the other kids are at the pool or at the beach, and your body is already completely exhausted from workouts and two-a-days.”
“It’s hard to throw, catch, block, and tackle and hit kids when they’re way bigger and way more developed than you, only to go home that night bruised, battered, and strained, but knowing you have to show up again the next day for just the chance to try again. But understand this: Life is hard.”
Brady had the whole stadium and all those former players ready to run through a wall after this speech, and it seems that fans felt the exact same way.
NFL Fans React To Epis Speech!
After the speech quickly went viral and many fans had seen the passionate speech from the greatest, many were saying that he seems like he would be great at running for office one day.
“Serious question. If Tom Brady ran for office would you vote him in? This was strong,” Jane Slater tweeted.
“I’m going to pencil him in on my election Ballot. America needs Brady,” Michael Thomas tweeted.
“Put him on the ballot. I’ve seen enough,” one fan tweeted.
“I’d be down for that, much better than our current choices,” another fan tweeted.
This probably just highlights how drastically pessimistic people are feeling about the potential candidates for office these days, or maybe these fans are onto something. Maybe Brady will explore that one day, although it is highly doubtful.
