🤣🤣
I was looking for this comment😂
@@nsd_respectI swear I was 😭

He literally retired a year ago. if there's anyone who's qualified to compare the old NFL to the New is a guy watched it since the 80s, played it since the 90s and played it professionally from 2000-2023. at the highest possible level. the one true goat.
Very true…
He’s also part of the reason for some of the so called “soft” rules.
no sorry that would be joe montana
@kennycarlson9996 Oh, you mean the 2nd greatest of all time
@@alexdenty7041Joe was more talented, Brady had more longevity. Why not just stop comparing them, Jerry Rice is the greatest football player of all time, second is Deion Sanders.
Bradys commentary (8:20) on the softness of today's players and their thirst for instant gratification over long sustained work ethics was right on the money.
Nfl players being called soft by yt commenters is wild. Society as a whole is soft, especially yu
@@McFly7414insulting random people online really makes you feel tough huh?? 😂😂😂😂 Bum
My gpa played rb at South Carolina in 50’s , an played an entire game with a broken back. Didn’t know it til 2 days later.
Now that the league is all black, u got guys that break a nail a lay on the field like idiots waiting on assistance of said white folk . Lmfao that’s SOFT
@@MG-fn9xw so what are you insinuating? Not to act like my brothers comment up top wasn’t bs but that’s the response?
Imagine calling players of one of the most violent sports on earth soft from the comfort of your couch.
This is so unreal to watch lmao never would’ve imagined a Brady and Stephen A interview but it was amazing
Because y’all hate on Stephen A so much not realizing how much respect he has from other players and associates.
Tell that to Joe Rogan lol jk Stephen A a goat in his lane just like Brady a goat and his lane respect to both
@@shaqb2161 I don’t hate on Stephen A at all, I watch First Take all the time.
This gives me hope that he will go to Club Shay Shay
@@shaqb2161right 💯
Stephen really let him talk. Great interview. Also snuck in some good questions other people wont ask.
This is why Stephen A is a good host, and Skip Bayless is an idiot. Stephen A also knows what the hell he’s talking about.
Hahah that was a first
Brady speaking straight facts the entire time. The goat. A lot of his success came from his intelligence without a doubt.
Absolutely. High IQ, discipline, and professionalism.
This season just doesn’t feel the same without him
It's weird without him for sure.. the NBA gonna feel empty without Lebron 😞
The sport isn't the same without him
Without him and Rodger’s yea
People felt the same when Joe Montana left... they feel the same whenever any icon retires... the problems begin when a narrative is created, that they're irreplaceable.
Damn brady turning into a great life coach too
He's well equipped to be a life coach.
He always talks like he's giving a speech I mean I'm sure its very helpful but sometimes i wanna just hear him talking shit lol
Stephen A. Is one of the best interviewers I’ve seen. His questions are great, his cadence is great, & the vibes are high.
he did great here. good questions, great pacing, and chimed in where he needed to, but knowing it was brady, he asked and sat back and give the floor to brady. it was a great interview.
I was thinking that! He's actually really good at it.
He ask the questions we want to ask.
And then there’s the other side of him that yells and at Damien Woody for a minute straight which also makes him great 🤣
Hall of fame career in his 20s, 30s, and 40s.
#Facts
Yo for real TB12 has 3 hall of fame careers!!! That's crazy!!!
he's the GOAT for a reason; that's that, absolutely
The collab we didn’t think we needed 😂🔥
I did. You slow
I was thinking the same thing!
He credited everyone but himself
AMEN!!
Ghey
I love how Stephen usually talks right over guests but when Brady speaks he is all ears lmao
Brady has earned it. What he has done on the field and off has been amazing.
holy shit the GOAT on the show huge W 👏👏
“I had so many good people come into my life that wanted me to succeed…Michigan, Bellicheck, QB coaches, my kids” and skips his ex wife 🔥🔥🔥🔥 this is my GOAT 😂
Lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol, I noticed that too
Makes u wonder , did she and ab had lil something something...
@@BodyByRich I think she had an affair with her jiu-jitsu jitsu trainer
I hate to say it but I'm sure he had his fun with the ladies too while he was married probably doing what she was doing as well
Brady said what all 80s/90s/00s football fans couldn’t quite put to words in this interview. Respect for the honest analysis of the game from the most qualified man to speak on it 🔥
Brady was a HARD WORKER. That’s what makes guys like him and Kobe and MJ super great. Hard work.
Right and LeBron James too! They all say how he inspired him to keep going
Kobe didnt last after age 35 Bron still elite at almost 39!!!! Stop
@@mattmolt-bb1iw bro nobody was trying to discredit Lebron, he’s included too.
@@ss_IIII ain’t nobody hating, he’s included too. Y’all doin too much I just threw out some names 😭
LeHuh don't belong in this conversation. The poster listed who he wanted.
7 rings, and longevity will always be unmatched. Seems like a cool dude too 🐐
The best interview Steven A has ever done. Not a Brady fan not a Stephen A fan not a skip fan. Just a sports guy.
You have seen and/or heard and/or read every interview that Smith has ever done?
the dude wears his IQ on his jersey......00
Well that escalated quickly. @@jadezee6316
ESPN has gone down hill with these commentators. All you hear is them with strong opinions, arguments that go on and on and Stephen A on his negative Cowboy comments. I don’t like the Cowboys but damn Stephen A is getting old. Go back to reporting on sports.
Sports guys ? oh plz, you're a fan lol
As a Dolphins fan, this man is such an inspiration
Appreciate you man.
Absolute legend
Why does being a dolphin fan have anything to do with your comment?
@@Av___920 years of suffering 😂
As a ceiling fan woooosh 💨💨
Flowers 💐 to Brady ...you made the game exciting
Now you know you lying lol.
Hate brady if you want but he has made the game exiting if you hate him you watch to see if he can get beat if you like him you watch in hopes that he can win he was the face of the nfl for years and the league was nothing without him and manning and I’m talking about in there time not before there time before it was Montana
@@TLR1988Ppl say anything.
We all hated the man when he was playing cause he was so boring lmao
@@xZoogiiee ya just say you hate the man it’ll be easier than lying to yourself because ain’t no way all those comebacks or Payton vs Brady was boring again love or hate the man the game isn’t the same without him manning as well
"You play how you practice " 💯
it's interesting that Jordan said the same; he was ruthless in practice so that the actual game felt "easy". That might be a pattern to pay attention to
Just realized why Brady smashed all that bench Technology 🔥🇨🇦🇺🇸😆
Stephen did let him talk.
Genius.
Thank you!
Miss this man so much! The GOAT 🐐 spitting, straight truth 🔥💯 👊🏾😎
Wouldn't be surprised to see any of his sons follow in his footsteps. Excellence , grounded , cerebral and professional personified.
Yep! And they are so loved by their dad just as they are, so there isn’t pressure from him.
Actually a great interview, thoroughly enjoyed this one
If Brady went to Wall Street he would have be an animal. Incredible speaker
It’s his genuine enthusiasm. It’s palpable. He was born to win
You wouldn't think a guy who played football and was hit hard for a living would be this great of a speaker
100% they tried to hire him for speech events
The game is not the same without him
He was that guy/team to beat every Sunday or if you were a fan.. that guy to beat your team. Def is missed watching him-especially on the pats 😔
No sport is the same once one of the greats and in his case, the greatest ever leave.
Feel you man, after kelce brothers retired too i dont know what or who to get excited for NFL again
@@jonathanyoyookittle
Damn… you know Skip really mad now..
PUNCHING THE AIR😂😂
Haha
Exactly 😂and probably can't sleep
What would probably send him over the edge is TB12 showing up on Club Shay Shay 😏
Skip has put Toms jersey in the trash😂
100% correct as I’d expect. Great interview by the Reverend Smith.
1. The NFL should listen to TB12 with regard to some of these absurd rule changes!
2. He’s right about the players. You can’t improve if you listen to everyone saying how great you are or doing things that distract from evolving.
Never imagined how difficult an adjustment to not seeing him playing. Look at all these teams needing a QB! He’s probably enjoying retirement but it must be tempting. 8 has a nice ring to it.
I see what you did there
His narrative about the pussification of the NFL is spot on.
That he ushered in btw.
@@NarutofightsHD1 You're delusional. Brady thrived in the smashmouth era of the early 2000's. Won every single playoff game. Its Jim Irsay and the colts who just couldn't shut up about how dirty the pats were playing. The league catered to their demands in 2005 and now we have this... Just look at how much penalties went against the pats in 2006 and 2007.
@@pointyheadYT The Brady Rule Definition: Prohibits defensive players who are on the ground from "lunging" at a quarterback's legs.
The rule was implemented in 2008 once Brady suffered a season-ending ACL injury. Sounds like you're the delusional one..
@@NarutofightsHD1 That rule was introduced for a very good reason... and has nothing to do with why there are more penalties nowadays. The guy that injured Brady in 2008 very clearly knew he couldn't stop his throw and wanted to purposefully injure him. If you look at the history of that player you'd see that wasn't the first time he did that either. He was a very dirty player.
Seems to me like you're one of those fans who love seeing blood. You probably don't see any problem even with that tackle that almost decapitated Peyton.
@@pointyheadYT 2000s wasn't smashmouth era. Brady always hid behind refs. He was the biggest crybaby. NFL refs handed games over to that fraud
Being a Payton Manning fan, I was never a big fan of Brady and don't like the Patriots... EVERYTIME this guy opens his mouth he's inspiring. I don't think I've ever seen him say a negative thing about a teammate, coach, I've become a big fan in the last few years.
Sundays aren’t the same without Brady
They're not!
Facts.
I just get drunk on Sundays now in my garage
Truest words ever spoken, this man IS football. I wouldn’t doubt he comes back as a head coach one day (He can still win another ring that way😉)
That's a fact. I'm in mourning.
What an incredible segment. Cannot wait to see more of Tom's thoughts when he joins the NFL media. Dude is the most qualified of anyone to tell it like it is and we all know he wont hold back.
Man just such a stand up guy. I took so many nuggets from this interview about his mindset and preparation. I see even more how the right circle around you can help propel you to the next level. 🫡 to the 🐐
I mean its common sense stuff. You’ve never heard the saying show me your friends and i’ll show you your future? Or you are who your friends are? Toms success isnt a secret, its just hard to keep that mindset and discipline yourself to live your life that way
@@GeorgeZimmermensome people need a better understanding of how to do it
Great interview and great message from the 🐐
@@daviditurralde-ex9sv some people are stupid
Dang he is so knowledgeable. I see why he is really great.
He has intelligence and wisdom - that's a rare combination.
Still can't believe Brady won in Tampa🔥😁🇨🇦🇺🇸
Think they could have went back to back if Chris Godwin stays healthy and ab didnt rage quit
At 43 years old too

@@barrybondshomerunking6778is Godwin doesn’t get hurt and tristin words doesn’t have ankle issues going into playoffs they prolly repeat in 21’
Don't show Skip this. He might start crying
He interviewed him better than Skip would have for sure.
So true about Skip . Why Brady do this to his # 1 advocate 🤔 Shannon somewhere 🤣
😂😂😂
Tampa misses the 🐐!!!!!!! That man gave me the best 3 football years of my life! Superbowl 55 🤩
That passion when he speaks is why he's the GOAT
When I say I'm proud of this platform because, the guest and the interviews are going to be amazing!! Congratulations SAS👏👏👏👏
Stephen you got an “A” for this interview. Outstanding!
Love him or hate him, Brady is the man.
Simply the GOAT, no ifs or buts.
And people somehow find a way to disagree. It's not even like the Jordan/ LeBron debate. There is NO debate here.
@@gabrialcoombs9202 definitely no debate there either.
Great interview! Stephen A elevating himself with great work!
Darn it, when General Brady speak you just gotta listen and change your ways. That's why he's the GOAT; his talent plus his all around capacity to transmit the need of individual discipline for collective success. I'm almost ready to suit up LOL He will be coaching very soon, I have no doubts about it
Great interview! Brady was real receptive of the questions Stephen A. Was asking and Brady kept it real when it came to answering, giving his opinion, teaching, and self awareness of the course of his career. TB12!
Stephen A show just went astronomical 😂😂😂
Such a great interview! Good to hear from the legend of all QB himself.
Some of the best interviews are when the person asking the questions let the person being interviewed answer the question. Great job by Stephen A.
Stephen A. is actually really good at interviewing people.
I guess he only screams and interrupts in debates
Right! I'm thinking, he's a good journalist when he's not being a jackalope.
Bigger than Life, this man was a God in Boston
Was?
Is*
Still is
He is their Lord and Savior. Everything has fallen apart without him 😂
Always will be.
He’s definitely NOT over losing the undefeated season against the Giants in 07 and neither am I!!! 😂😂😂
I’m a giant fan & I’m not losing any sleep over it
@@kingsleyjackson8287luckiest ever win.
As a Niners (and SF Giants) fan, it's nice to see Brady wearing a Giants cap but also hurts that the Niners front office seemed to be allergic to him. I feel we definitely would have gotten ring #6 if TB12 was our QB.
9ers could've threepeated by now, with the additions of Brady, Gronk and Fournette. He also probably would still be playing.
Because that his Hometown.
It's interesting. If Brady had stayed retired after 2021 the Niners almost certainly would've called after Garoppolo went down.
Haha he left Giselle out when he was talking about people coming into his life 😂 🤣 Burned
Most likely he didn’t want to get in trouble with his new gal…
Not every dude stays stuck on they ex😂😂
Of course she was also an inspiration to him but he’s not about to mention that since she left him and he’s angry about that.
forever my idol. watching him since college till now and so on is really amazing. i gotta push myself more..
It's been said Brady could have won the MVP almost every year he played and I agree with it. Considering what everyone is saying about the Patriots now that he's gone it proves it in a way. I think naming the MVP trophy the Brady Trophy would be an appropriate result.
Well this is a nice dub for Stephen A.
This was Brady auditioning to be NFL Commissioner someday … Roger has to go eventually and Tom’s the man for the job
Brother you are the man i hope the younger generation listen to you.
I really enjoyed this interview with the GOAT. Real Talk!
This interview is priceless
Great interview Stephen A. Appreciate you asking the non typical questions.
Big time interview! He is very humble and modest during the interview. On the field, he was the ultimate competetor going for the win similar to Michael Jordan.
Respect to stephen A for this..this was really dope
That’s my quarterback 🥹.. I think he’s really looking back and realizing how lucky he was to have Belicheck help his development. Also, people forget Brady came up in that era with some real dawgs now! He played when players were headhunting at an all time high.. remember the hit against the Bills in 2002 or 2003 that knocked his helmet smooth off so he knows, granted he has benefited from the rules but as someone said in the comments Brady still knew how to protect himself.
Glad you're mentoring Shedeur!!!
Would love to see him QB coach him his entire career. They have an awesome report.
always a pleasure to listen to the GOAT
The GOAT going full politician mode when asked about Michigan scandal. Love it. Started to say how he really felt, but held back.
Every single point he made was spot on. You can have a million followers for right now but without your continued success (based on hard work, discipline, work ethic, football knowledge, etc) it will not last. So yeah, If you are cool being a one and done then sure, do it, but if you want continued success & admiration and respect it’s earned a diff way. Also, the rules of the game changing & mediocrity, it’s so true!! AND above all that, he doesn’t take the credit! He gives the credit to all the people that came into his life that made him who he is! That’s extremely humbling & as much as I’ve loved him since the moment he took over for Bledsoe, I think I love him even more after this interview!! Oh, and P.S. if there is ANYONE out there that can hear this and watch this and still believe that this man cheated at any point in his career (deflategate, spygate, etc) then you are just simply a hater who will never give him the true respect and credit he deserves!!
Brady hss been practicing his communication skills. FOX deal starts 2024 season. He used to talk like a scrub. Huge difference now.
Love this interview ❤
Great interview 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is a gem of an interview
Amazing interview. Truly a pleasure to see Brady shine in retirement like this. One of the GOATS!

@@sinoverlord409I suppose you jerk off to the thought while being alone in front of a computer. Brady's got all the options in the world lol. Don't think he cares too much.
That was actually a really good interview
Todays NFL is nothing like the Manning, Rodgers, Brady, Brees era. That truly was the best age for quarterbacks.
The Cam Newton’s ERA is very great, too!
Cam Newton is still great!
Cam is in the NFL from 2011-2021! We got the “DAB”, The #SWAG, The Children #Football #Giveaways, Philanthropy, etc..

I'm from that era and some of ya'll starting to sound like NBA fans when they mention this era and the 90's era lol What's really missing these days is rivalries but that can make it's way back hopefully...The talent is there with Mahomes,Lamar,Burrow,Hurts,Stroud,Tua,Purdy,Dak,Allen,Herbert,Lawrence,Goff etc...
Yes sir
@@brandonbates9259 i’m not disagreeing those quarterbacks aren’t good, but those new QB’s combine for a total of 3 MVP’s and the guys I listed have 12. Yes I know they’ve played longer, but today it feels like the gap between the best, and the worst is tighter allowing other guys to have a chance… where is back then 20 teams had zero chance.
Brady seems like a very likeable guy!!!
Like other have already said, I didn’t know I needed this interview! 👏🏾👏🏾

Great interview SAS is definitely the 🐐 after this conversation 🙏🏽🔥👑💯
Hated Brady for years but always respected his fire, when he got to Tampa and started really showing his personality and talking more I became a fan. Great interview with great questions and insight, lots of gems in this one!
So basically you’re a fan of an afc team & you hated him while he was dominating the afc?
Hearing Brady say the leavue has gotten to soft is the most vindicating thing for every football fan
I think he didn't mean "soft" in a physical sense. People in general have gotten super soft mentally these days.
Brady just spoke all truths......
Brady understood the game like no other and players/coaches past and present know that, the way he explains playing against the likes of Ray Lewis that he had to protect his own players by where and when he threw the ball otherwise they would be knocked out the game, a chess grandmaster Brady. Today's QBs throw now think later and because of that and along with dumb receivers the NFL change the rules to avoid these kamikaze big hits and just throw flags and it's clear Brady sees the game going backwards, read a defence understand the scheme has gone, they just extend plays, backyard flag football.. Brady gonna rip the quality of play in the comm box next season and I'm all for it, great interview by Stephen A.
Good interview 👑💯👍🏾🔥The iceman Brady💥💥🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 I loved how he stressed that instant gratification is not sustainable and people have to make good choices and work hard. 🎉#realtalk
Steven A looks younger since hes lost weight and got in shape..props to him....👍🏾💪🏿
Guys like Brady and Manning are just different levels when it comes to knowing the game of football.
OMG! He really got TB on the show. Skip Bayless is BIG MAD!
Well spoken. Inspirational. Great collab interview.
Great interview! Two greats in their respective professions👍🏾
we live in an age where narcissism is the norm
It’s weaker because he isn’t playing in it.
🎯😎🇨🇦🇺🇸😆
It was weaker when he was. You couldn’t touch him without a flag being thrown
So everyone that’s there now and the years of training an all they sacrifices they made over the years it’s weaker according to YOU and armchair prognosticator !!
