Tom Brady compared playing in the NFL to “going away on deployment in the military” amid speculation his marriage with Gisele Bündchen has fallen apart.
“The reality is, you can really only be authentic to yourself,” the seven-time Super Bowl champion said Monday on his SiriusXM podcast “Let’s Go! With Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray.”
“I almost look at like a football season like you’re going away on deployment in the military,” he added. “And it’s like, ‘Man, here I go again. There’s only one way to do it.’”
Brady, 45, noted that “from time to time” he struggles to “enjoy certain moments” of his sporting success.
“Whenever you may say, ‘Oh man, I want to make sure I spend a little more time doing this,’ your competitiveness takes over,” he explained.
“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,” he continued. “Which is why you are who you are. You’re going to go, ‘How do I get it done?’ You know, ‘What do I got to do to get it done?’”
When asked by his co-hosts how he deals with social media, Brady replied, “Everyone should be authentic to who they are.”
“Some people approach it in different ways and it has to work for them as part of your personality,” he continued, noting his “style” is to “ignore as much as possible.”
Brady’s unwillingness to step away from the NFL is rumored to be the main cause of tension between the couple.
