“The More Prepared I Am, The Better I Feel”: Tom Brady Given Super Bowl Broadcast Advice From Troy Aikman

Tom Brady recently got some valuable advice from none other than Troy Aikman, former NFL player turned broadcaster. Brady is all set to take on as broadcaster for FOX Sports for the upcoming Super Bowl. This will be the first time that Brady will call as a broadcaster, and this is already delighting fans as they hope to hear some splendid commentary on the plays.

After retiring from the game, Tom Brady signed a deal with FOX Sports as a sports analyst and also became part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite already having experience speaking on public television, Brady will take on a brand new role for himself.

“For anyone who’s played in a Super Bowl, to say that ‘Well, the Super Bowl is just like any other game,’ they’ve not played in it. Because it’s not. As soon as you win the championship game, you know that Super Bowl is unlike any other game that you’ll play in. And the same is true as a broadcaster. The entire day is different. When you first do your hit on the pregame or even right before you go on-air, the timing is very different. The halftime is very different. But eventually, like it does as a player, things settle in. You’re ramped up to begin, there’s a lot of adrenaline, a lot of emotion and you just try to let the game unfold and ease into it.” Troy Aikman said.

“With that is preparation and I think that was always the key for me as a player, it’s the key for me as a broadcaster. The more prepared I am, the better I feel about knowing both teams … When you call a preseason game, it’s a different broadcast than when you call a regular season game.” Aikman continued.

Tom Brady Did Not Agree For Divorce From Gisele Bundchen

Meanwhile, Tom Brady did not agree to the divorce from Gisele Bundchen, as reports are that the model is expecting a child with her boyfriend, Joaquim Valente. Apparently, Brady did not originally want the divorce since co-parenting their two children, Benjamin and Vivian, would be hard.

Sources close to Brady also reported that the former quarterback has not been successful in any of his relationships after his divorce from Bundchen. It was speculated that Bundchen originally sought divorce from Brady because of his return to the NFL.
