Tom vs Time Episode 4 Focuses On Balance Between Football & Family
Tom vs Time episode 4 is now available on Facebook Watch. You can check out the full video above.
“Chapter IV: The Emotional Game” focuses on Brady’s balance between football and family, which has only grown more difficult as he’s gotten more and more busy later in his career. The clip starts, however, all the way back in 2011, as Brady and wife Gisele Bundchen go for a stroll in Boston the day after the Patriots’ 2010 AFC Divisional Playoff loss to the Jets.
Following the opening scene is a sequence about his trip to China with his son Jack. The clips of Brady riding a toboggan and wrestling against an actual sumo wrestler might make some fans cringe, but hey, he came out of it just fine.
Next is a series of clips of Brady with his mother Galynn and father Tom Sr. He has a phone conversation with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who gifts a Super Bowl ring to Galynn in the video. There’s also a look at Tom Sr. going through all his Super Bowl memorabilia.
Echoing the other episodes of Tom vs Time, Brady is also shown studying game film. This time his son Ben joins him, and he gives some insight into how he not only studies his opponents’ tendencies but his own, as a way of preparing to change them according to how the opponent is prepping to face him.
The episode concludes with a montage about the Patriots’ Week 12 win over the Dolphins in Foxboro, which had the whole family in attendance.
Episode 5 premieres on Super Bowl Sunday, with a sixth chapter to come after the game at a to-be-announced time. You can also check out Chapter 1, Chapter 2, and Chapter 3.
