“I’m on F****** Fire”: Tom Brady Explains How He Emotionally Screams At Referees And Why Massive Outbursts Are Really Unavoidable

Tom Brady is practically the face of the NFL. To say that he is a public figure would be an understatement. The spotlight on his peers is a mere shadow in comparison to the NFL world’s heavy gaze on the QB. That, perhaps, is the consequence of being the league’s most decorated player.

But with such attention comes unwarranted perception around everything he does. As an athlete, Brady is focused on being the best. The charged environment he’s surrounded by is bound to evoke emotions that may or may not be positive. In the wake of what could be called the most tumultuous season of his long career, what does Brady think of the way his actions and reactions have been interpreted?

Tom Brady doesn’t want his actions to be misinterpreted

This season has held unprecedented chaos. TB12’s personal life took a turn for the worse after news of a potential split from his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, came to public knowledge. From then on, the slippery slope of navigating the treacherous road in the limelight, while also juggling a career as an athlete, became the talk of the town.

Fans witnessed uncharacteristic outbursts from the QB. Such instances further propelled speculation that his career’s end was drawing near. But here’s what TB12 had to say about his emotions running high. Tom Brady’s podcast, ‘Let’s Go!’ has become a primary source of information. The podcast’s latest episode featured someone who is known for making statements that shake the sports world on a daily basis.

In conversation with Stephen A. Smith, Brady talked about the perception behind athletes’ reactions. He said, “For an athlete you want to feel like nothing is taken out of context because we say things so emotionally. It’s like I scream at a referee but why do I scream?”

In response to the rhetorical question posed, Brady said, “Cause I’m on fire, I’m on f****** fire. You take it out of context and you say, ‘Why is this guy yelling at this guy?’ Well, it’s because your engine is so revved.” TB12’s concerns about the misconceptions that spread like wildfire are valid. With a spotlight as bright as his, every word and action become a tale of their own.

Brady’s wish to be not taken out of context won’t happen as long as fans rely on speculations alone

If fans expected TB12 to make his way to another Super Bowl title this season, they were sorely mistaken. For starters, Brady was the recipient of repeated humblings from his opponents; the opposite of what he’d been doing for the last twenty years. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers managed to slip into the playoffs despite their 8-9 regular season record. But that, by no means, signaled the miraculous return of Brady at his peak.

His dwindling performance forced the NFL world to question if his illustrious career had finally come to an end. But as endless speculation abounds, fans may have to put into practice what the QB solemnly stated after his loss to the Cowboys. In his heartfelt speech Brady’s echoing words “one day at a time, truly,” continue to resonate as the impending decision of where he’s headed looms large.
