FRIDAY EDITION OF PFT LIVE. SUNDAY. WE PRESUME. HE’S NOT COMING BACK TO PLAY PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL. NOW THAT HE OWNS A PIECE OF THE RAIDERS, IT WOULD BE A VERY COMPLICATED PROCESS. THE ONLY TEAM HE COULD PLAY FOR IS THE RAIDERS AND THE RAIDERS IN. GOOD HANDS OF GO SMITH BUT TOM BRADY AND APPARENTLY THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HE WROTE IN A NEWSLETTER THAT I’M SURE HE WROTE IT ALL HIMSELF AND NO 1 ELSE, GHOST WROTE IT FOR HIM AND I’M JUST KIDDING. A LITTLE BIT, I THINK. BUT HE DISAGREED WITH OR TOOK A LITTLE ISSUE WITH SOMETHING THAT SCOTTY SCHEFFLER CURRENTLY. THE BEST GOLFER IN THE WORLD, THE CLOSEST THING WE’VE SEEN TO DOMINANCE SINCE TIGER WOODS IN HIS HEYDAY. HERE’S WHAT SCHEFFLER SAID. RECENTLY REGARDING THE THINGS THAT MOTIVATED IS IT GREAT TO BE ABLE TO WIN TOURNAMENTS AND TO ACCOMPLISH THE THINGS I HAVE IN THE GAME OF GOLF YET? I MEAN, IT IT BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES JUST TO THINK ABOUT BECAUSE IT’S LITERALLY WORKED MY ENTIRE LIFE TO BECOME GOOD AT THE SPORT AND TO HAVE THAT KIND THINK IS IS A PRETTY COOL FEELING, YOU KNOW, TO GET TO LIVE OUT. YOUR DREAMS IS VERY SPECIAL BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT’S LIKE I’M NOT OUT HERE TO INSPIRE THE NEXT GENERATION OF GOLFERS. I DON’T, I’M NOT HERE TO INSPIRE SOMEBODY ELSE TO BE THE BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD BECAUSE WHAT’S THE POINT? YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT A FULFILLING. LIFE. IT’S, IT’S FULFILLING FROM THE SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT BUT IT’S NOT FULFILLING FROM A SENSE OF YOU KNOW, PLACES OF YOUR HEART. I LOVE THE CHALLENGE. I LOVE BEING ABLE TO PLAY THIS GAME FOR A LIVING. IT’S IT’S 1 OF THE DOES IT FILL THE DEEPEST, YOU KNOW, WANTS AND DESIRES OF MY HEART. I’M BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO BUT IF MY GOLF EVER STARTED AFFECTING MY HOME LIFE, OR IT EVER AFFECTED, THE RELATIONSHIP. I HAVE WITH MY WIFE, WITH MY SON, YOU KNOW, THAT’S GOING TO BE THE LAST DAY THAT I PLAY OUT HERE FOR A LIVING. YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT THE BE ALL END, ALL THIS IS NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN MY LIFE AND THAT’S WHY I WRESTLE WITH. WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT TO ME? BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I WOULD MUCH RATHER BE A GREAT FATHER THAN I WOULD BE A GREAT GOLFER. YOU KNOW THAT, AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT THAT’S WHAT’S MORE IMPORTANT TO ME. AND HEY, IT’S WORKING FOR HIM BECAUSE HE’S A DOMINANT GOLFER NOW. NOW THERE ARE OTHERS WHO WOULD SAY YOU WOULD WIN EVERY TOURNAMENT. IF YOU AND IF YOU PRIORITIZED YOUR LEGACY AND YOUR CAREER, I SAW THAT SKIP BAYLESS MADE SOME COMMENT THAT HE DIDN’T HAVE KIDS, SO HE COULD GO ALL IN WITH HIS CAREER. LIKE THAT’S A LITTLE EXTREME. THAT’S A LITTLE EXTREME. YEAH, RIGHT. OKAY BUT BUT JUST GENERALLY BEFORE WE GET TO THE TOM BRADY ANGLE I MEAN I’VE GOT NO PROBLEM. LOOK EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT. TO PRIORITIZE THEIR OWN LIFE AND IT SHOULD BE NO 1’S PREROGATIVE TO QUESTION THEM, YOU DON’T WANT ANYONE TELLING YOU HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE? WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU TRY TO TELL SOMEONE ELSE HOW TO LIVE THEIRS? YEAH, I I’M WITH MAKES SCHEFFLER THERE. MAKES SENSE YEAH. I I’M WITH I WHAT SCOTTY SCHEFFLER THERE MAKES MEAN THERE’S THERE’S REALLY NOTHING CONTROVERSIAL ABOUT WHAT HE SAID BECAUSE HE’S SO GOOD. I THINK THOSE WHO WOULD WANT TO TAKE SHOTS AT HIM AND SAY, HEY THAT’S WHY YOU’RE THE 75TH RANKED GOLFER IN THE WORLD, YOU KNOW, HAVE YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT. NO. HE’S AN EXCELLENT GOLFER AND HE’S ALREADY TOLD YOU MANY TIMES THAT THIS IS NOT HIM. UH, THAT THE NUMBER 1 THING FOR HIM IS BEING A GREAT FATHER AND THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GREAT GOLFER AND A GREAT FATHER. I KNOW, UH, TOM BRADY, UH, TOOK ISSUE WITH THAT. UH, I AGREE WITH SCHEFFLER, DIFFERENT UH, THAT THE NUMBER 1 THING THEY THEY ARE IN COMPLETELY UH, BRADY DOESN’T THINK SO SCHEFFLER DOES. AND SO, I ALSO THINK THIS ABOUT GOLF. I DON’T KNOW MUCH MORE ABOUT GOLF THAN WHAT I LEARNED WHILE WATCHING HAPPY GILMORE 1 AND 2. BUT BUT YOU DO NEED TO GET TO YOUR HAPPY PLACE. I HAVE LEARNED IN GOLF. THE BASIC ABILITIES TO GOLF. WELL LIKE YOU CAN GET THERE. EFFORT, YOU’VE GOT OF ALL THE DIFFERENT DANCES, ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS. LIKE, I KNOW YOU GOT TO PUT A LOT OF TIME INTO THE DRIVING RANGE, BUT WHEN IT’S TIME TO GO PERFORM, YOU’VE GOT TO BE IN THE RIGHT MIND SPACE. TO GO OUT AND MAKE ALL THE HITS AND MAKE THE CLUB DO WHAT YOU WANT IT TO DO. SO IT STRIKES THE BALL, THE RIGHT WAY AND THE BALL GOES WHERE YOU WANT IT TO GO. AND I THINK THAT IT’S MORE IMPORTANT. WHATEVER IT IS FOR YOU AS THE GOLFER TO GET TO YOUR HAPPY PLACE AND IF FOR SCOTTY’S SCHEFFLER, IT’S PRIORITIZING HIS FAMILY AND HAVING THAT AS HIS HAPPY PLACE THAT HE THINKS ABOUT BEFORE HE MAKES THE BIG PUTT, THEN I THINK IT’S GOING TO BENEFIT HIS GOLF YEAH, I I AGREE AND I THINK WHAT HE SAID, UH, MIKE IF HE WERE A FOOTBALL PLAYER, IF SCOTTY SHUFFLER FOR A FOOTBALL PLAYER AND IT’S BEFORE THE DRAFT, IF HE SAID WHAT HE JUST SAID BEFORE THE DRAFT, HE WOULD SCARE THE HELL OUT OF. UM, I’D SAY 75% OF NFL TEAMS. OH, WAIT A WHAT DO YOU MEAN? UH, YOU KNOW, FOOTBALL IS IS FOOTBALL IMPORTANT TO YOU OR NOT, THE LEAGUE IS STILL BEHIND. WHEN IT COMES TO THIS STUFF AND WHENEVER PEOPLE SOUND BALANCED, AND WHENEVER THEY START, TALKING ABOUT THINGS OUTSIDE OF BEING ALL IN AND CONSUMED WITH FOOTBALL, IT MAKES GENERAL MANAGERS WORK WORRIES. SO UH, I’M GLAD HE’S SAYING IT AFTER HE’S ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH IF YOU SAY IT BEFORE THE ACCOMPLISHMENT PEOPLE START TO LOOK AT YOU UNFORTUNATELY, BUT THIS IS WHERE I WANT TO CALL TOM BRADY OUT FOR BEING A LITTLE DISINGENUOUS. HEY, I THINK IT’S BETTER. UH IT IT’S THEY’RE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. SCOTTY I PLAY FOOTBALL AND I PUT THE HOURS IN ALL THIS STUFF THE THE DEVOTION TO THE CRAFT, RIGHT? I THINK PART OF BEING A GREAT FATHER IS BEING A GREAT EXAMPLE OF DOING WHAT IT TAKES TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY. I CHOSE TO DO IT BY PLAYING FOOTBALL. AND IT TO THE MIKE, I’M GOING TO SAY THAT’S BS. AND I’M NOT SAYING HE’S A, I’M NOT CALLING BS ON HIS FAMILY. I’M SAYING YOU DIDN’T CHOOSE TO PLAY FOOTBALL TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY, YOU KNOW, YOU DIDN’T YOU CHOSE TO PLAY FOOTBALL WHEN YOU WERE 13 OR 14 YEARS OLD YOU AND YOUR FATHER PUT OUT VIDEOS, TRYING TO GET THE ATTENTION OF BIG-TIME COLLEGE PROGRAMS, WHEN YOU WERE A ROOKIE WITH THE PATRIOTS, THERE WAS A A A A TIGHT END FROM HARVARD WHO WAS, UH, BRADY’S ROOMMATE AT THE TIME. HIS NAME WAS CHRIS, HEINTZMAN, NO LONGER WITH US. REST IN PEACE. CHRIS, HEINTZMAN WAS HIS ROOMMATE. AND BRADY WAS THE FOURTH QUARTERBACK ON THE PATRIOTS. AND HE TOLD ICEMAN, I’M GONNA I’M GONNA BE THE STARTER AND HE WOULDN’T LET ICEMAN LEAVE THE FIELD, THEY WOULD PRACTICE. WELL, AFTER HOURS UH WHEN EVERYBODY ELSE WAS GONE. HE’S BUILT THIS WAY. THIS HAS WITH. WELL, I’M DOING THIS TO SHOW MY KIDS THAT I’VE GOT A STRONG ETH WORK ETHIC AND I’M GOING TO TEACH THEM TO BE DEDICATED TO THE CRAFT AND ALL KIDS ARE DIFFERENT. THIS IS THE LAST THING I’LL ALL KIDS ARE DIFFERENT BUT I’M GUESSING. 10 11, 12 YEAR OLD KID. THEY WOULD RATHER SAY HEY HEY ARE YOU AT MY GAME? ARE YOU AT MY RECITAL? ARE YOU HERE FOR DINNER? THEY WOULD RATHER THAT BE THE CASE THEN. HEY, DADDY’S OFF, PERFECTING HIS CRAFT MOST KIDS, DON’T THINK LIKE THAT. ARE YOU THERE OR NOT IN THEIR LIVES? SO I’M, I’M JUST SAYING HE’S NOT DOING IT. HE’S DIDN’T START DOING FOOTBALL FOR FAMILY PURPOSES. HE DID FOOTBALL BECAUSE THAT’S HOW HE’S WIRED. HE’S OBSESSED. AND THAT’S WHAT IT IS. WE WE AS HUMANS ARE VERY GOOD AT FINDING WAYS TO JUSTIFY OUR SELFISHNESS AND WHATEVER IT IS THAT WE JUST WANT TO DO. WE CAN COME UP WITH A COCKAMAMIE. THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS AND WE HAVE THIS LIKE, EVERYTHING. TOM BRADY TOUCHES TURNS TO GOLD EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. SOMETHING HE TOUCHES DOESN’T WORK OUT LIKE FTX NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT FTX FTX WAS A DISASTER, AND HE WAS ARM IN ARM WITH SAM, BANKMAN FREED AND THAT NEVER GETS DISCUSSED. AND IF HE’S GOING TO GO THERE AND TALK ABOUT HOW, OH YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL, YOU CAN HAVE A WORK LIFE BALANCE LIKE 2022. THINGS GOT SUFFICIENTLY OUT OF BALANCE FOR TOM BRADY, THAT THERE WERE SOME SERIOUS PERSONAL ISSUES THAT CULMINATED IN BUT SERIOUS PERSONAL OUTCOME. SO, WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE? LIKE TOM DO WE FORGET? ARE WE YOU GASLIGHTING YOURSELF ON THIS? YOU’RE NOT THE EXAMPLE. YOU’RE THE GOAT WHEN IT COMES TO WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS. YOU’RE NOT THE EXAMPLE FOR HOW TO PROPERLY BALANCE YOUR LIFE. AND HERE’S HIS QUOTE, IF WE’RE GOING TO QUOTE TOM BRADY, HOW ABOUT THIS QUOTE MICHAEL HOLLEY. IF YOU’RE GOING TO COMPETE YOU’D BETTER BE WILLING TO GIVE UP YOUR LIFE. BECAUSE I’M GIVING UP MINE.
