Tom Brady also discussed how, born and raised, his older siblings were the family’s star athletes. People recognized him as their little brother.

He mentions, “I used to be known as Maureen Brady’s little brother. And I always said, ‘Man, one day, they’re gonna be known as Tom Brady’s elder sisters. You know this is a little family joke. But now, we’re all known as Maya Brady’s uncle and Maya Brady’s mom. She’s out there kicking butt right now. 4th or 5th UCLA, they got a great team. I love College Softball. I’ll be tuning in and watching the whole tournament.”
