“I’m just a good witch” – When Tom Brady made startling admission about ex-wife Gisele Bundchen’s abilities to predict the future
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen announced their divorce earlier this season, but she may have been the key to his success throughout the years. In a clip that recently resurfaced, the seven-time Super Bowl champion was at an event for Gillette and talked about how he learned a lot from his wife over the years.
He said that some of the techniques that she believed would bring good luck, did. This included pictures of their family as well as specialty necklaces:
"I've learned a lot from my wife over the years. And she's so about the power of intention, you know, and believing things that are really going to happen."
"And so she put together a little altar for me that I could bring with pictures of my kids. And I had these little special stones and healing stones and protection stones and she has me wear a necklace and take these drops she makes. And I say all these mantras."
Tom Brady also said that Gisele Bundchen had good instincts and her premonitions could tell her when he would have a good season or not. He said that she was usually right about it and would tell him 'this is the year' or not:
"And I stopped questioning her a long time ago, I did, I just shut up and listen. And at first I was like, this is kind of crazy. And then, about four years ago, we were playing the Seahawks. And she said you better listen to me, this is your year, but this is all the things you're going to have to do to win and I did all those things."
After naming all the times she correctly predicted the future, he added:
"Right after the game, she said, 'See, I did a lot of work. You do your work, I do mine.' She said you're lucky you married a witch. I'm just a good witch."
She then apparently told him that he was lucky he married a witch and referred to herself as a 'good witch'.
Tom Brady says that he's not 'entitled to win'
Tom Brady has won seven Super Bowl rings and is still playing football professionally at the age of 45. The speculation of whether he will retire remains high, especially as he and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a record under .500 after 15 weeks of the regular season.
On this week's episode of his Let's Go! podcast, Tom Brady said that he still plays because he wants to win. But he also said that he also uses every experience to find out what he is learning.
Brady said that he is especially learning a lot in the last few seasons when the wins have become harder. He said that he knows that he is not entitled to win a game and that is just part of life and playing sports:
"It’s interesting because you would think, ‘Oh, well, why is he still playing?’ Because all you want to do is win, and that’s all sports should be about is winning. And I agree it should be about winning, but it’s also, I’m looking at it like, no, what am I learning?"
"You know, why should we feel like we’re just entitled to win all the time? We’re not. That’s not what life’s about.”
Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have just a one-game lead in the NFC South with three games remaining. The Bucs will take a cross-country trip to play the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday night. From this point on, every game is a must-win for any hope of a playoff spot.
