Tom Brady's No Spring Chicken (But He Has No Idea)


A couple of things stick out in Peter King’s weekly column for Sports Illustrated. First, that Brady still sees himself as a spring chicken: “… I still feel like I’m in my first year trying to prove myself. There’s no entitlement around coach Belichick. I’ve got to be the best guy for him to keep playing me. When I’m not, someone else will play.” And second, that Gisele is starting to catch on to his lacking sense of time: “My wife said to me, ‘When I met you [in 2006], you said you wanted to play 10 more years. How come that number never goes down?’ It’s that I love the game. I love the game. I’m going to play until they tell me they don’t want me anymore.” [SI.com]
