Brady: Athletes don t want to sacrifice their families when they are old, and no one can handle it better than James

June 27th, today, James, Vinban Yama, NFL legend Brady and others, whose personal interview program "TheShop" was broadcasted last week at the Fanatics Carnival in New York. The host asked Brady to give some advice to James, who might be considering retirement. Brady said: "I can imagine that because I have experienced what he has experienced in many ways. I think his challenge is probably more psychological and emotional than physical. He has many other things to worry about, besides business affairs and his kids. Now Brownie is playing, Bryce is growing up, he wants to accompany his family, and the family has a lot of needs for him. I think the challenge that an athlete faces as he gets older is that we all have jobs, your job is important, but the rest of your life is also important.

"As an athlete you have to make a choice because you can't decide the schedule of the game, and they say when you want to play, you have to play. So, you will miss your wedding, miss your birthday, miss Christmas, miss Thanksgiving, until a node, and you will feel, ‘OK, I don’t want to give up so much anymore, I want to have a little more flexibility in life. ’I think that will consume your energy a little.

"But no one in my mind deals better with this than LeBron. What he did at this age on the basketball court, he faced so much pressure and intensity of the game, the Olympics, the different teams he was in, he always did things the right way, he always overcame all the noise and nonsense and kept playing. So, what you are witnessing is the best players in history, and I hope you all appreciate that."
