BOSTON — On Tuesday, Tom Brady mentioned that Beneath Armour allowed him to select any narrator he wished for an upcoming advert. There was actually solely on selection.
A day later, Brady revealed that the chosen narrator was — naturally — Morgan Freeman, arguably the proprietor of the best voice of all time.
The advert itself was based mostly on a letter that Tom Brady wrote to any athlete who may be labeled as “the subsequent Tom Brady.” Curiously, Brady would not suppose that is a great purpose for a younger athlete to have.
Here is what Brady’s letter mentioned:
This letter is for you. From what I hear, you are speculated to be the subsequent Tom Brady. What I am about to say is essential: By no means allow them to name you ‘the subsequent Tom Brady.’
After they examine you to the GOATs, tune it out.
After they say you are a sixth-round draft choose, retailer it away.
Examine your self to no person however the child within the mirror — the one who goes all in, all out, and has the loopy confidence to know that who you’re as we speak is only a piece of who you are going to develop into.
This letter’s for that you just, the one nobody will see coming.
Sincerely,
Tom
Whereas setting one’s sights on profitable seven Tremendous Bowls (and counting?) in a 23-year profession within the NFL would seemingly be a great purpose, Brady believes that it is best for all younger athletes to concentrate on their very own paths. On condition that no person in historical past has ever had something near his personal profession arc, Brady would absolutely know.
