Here’s the story that @people ran this morning revealing the cover of my next book on @TomBrady: “Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness,” out across the world on September 29. people.com/lars-anderson-tom…
The only 4th-string QB on an active NFL roster in 2000, Brady begged scout-team guys to stay after practice in the shivering dark just to throw into the quiet cold.
“Tom might be the worst athlete to ever play in the NFL,” teammate Niko Koutouvides recalled. Deprived of raw physical gifts, Brady built an empire on 50 hours a week of film study.

Near the end in Tampa, after a last-ditch attempt to save his marriage failed, Brady looked gaunt on the sideline—“like a cancer patient with good hair,” as one observer noted.
Late in the 2022 season, on the day his divorce was finalized, Brady arrived at One Buc Place gaunt and cadaverous, a man reduced to bone and sorrow. The brutal price of ultimate greatness.

A few months before his first start at Notre Dame Stadium, Brady sneaked inside, only to find himself temporarily locked and stranded in the quiet, empty House That Rockne Built.
“He’s a little bit of a soft kitty in some man categories,” teammate David Nugent teased, catching the strange space between Tom’s gentle nature and his on-field fury.
Beneath the disciplined obsession and strict diet lay a hidden wire: teammates marveled that Tom could destroy anyone on the roster in a lightning-fast beer-chugging contest.

“Looks more like a damn aluminum siding salesman than a professional quarterback.” One head coach’s cold draft verdict before Tom drifted down to pick 199.
Long before the bright lights of Sunday, Tom spent college summers at a Merrill Lynch office in Ann Arbor, where his boss swore his real fortune lay on Wall Street.
Overwhelmed and trapped on the bench at Michigan, a young Tom Brady was so consumed by silent inner screams that he turned to psychological counseling.

“He had a book in his mind on these guys,” a teammate said of Tom’s high school scouting of opposing batters. Drafted by the MLB as a catcher, his cold focus was already obvious.

You know what holds a lot of athletes back? Worrying too much about what everyone else is getting.
One thing I learned over 20 years of coaching:
The players who improved the most weren’t always the most talented.
They were the ones who stopped worrying about what they weren’t getting and started making the most of what they had.
Tom Brady nails it here.
Control your attitude. Bring energy. Be prepared.
The moment you stop pointing fingers and start looking in the mirror is the moment you start getting better.
