The Howard Stern Show finally got ahold of Tom Brady for an interview and it did not disappoint. This interview provided exciting insight into the new Buccaneer QB.
To say that Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time is something that most people would never dispute, and the fact that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were able to land him still feels surreal.
As the media feeding frenzy has commenced, Brady was finally able to make an appearance on the Howard Stern Show, and it was something that every Bucs fan or fan of the NFL should listen to.
As most people are familiar, the Howard Stern Show allows its guests to get candid and speak from the heart, free of most rules that often bind most celebrities in the majority of the interviews that they give. It is especially free of strings for a former New England Patriot.

Brady discussed everything under the sun from his current experience as a tenant under landlord Derek Jeter, to an extremely personal injury, some politics were mentioned, and nothing about football was left out.
As often seen with great athletes, fans from opposing cities do not go out of their way to support the players that continue to embarrass their team.

Tom Brady was able to depict himself as a relatable and funny individual, but he also showed that he burns with a competitive spirit that explains why he is the greatest quarterback of all time.
In one of the best quotes from the interview Brady said the following to Stern about his commitment;
"“If you bet on me, then I’m gonna give you everything I have. I’ll give you my head. I’ll give you my heart. I’ll give you my body. I’ll give you my everything.”"
That fire and competitive drive were shown throughout the interview, and Bucs fans can rest assured that Brady is going to leave it all on the field in 2020.
The main takeaway from the interview is that Tom Brady is ready to work. While there may be challenges in 2020, Tom Brady was able to show today that he is ready to take those new challenges on in Tampa Bay.
