Tom Brady has a big problem with ‘selfish’ generation of young athletes

The seven-time Super Bowl champion quarterback provided an illustration of the generational gap as compared with the players who have come up with smartphones and social media.“I think the biggest problem with a lot of f–king kids these days, it’s all about them,” Brady said. “Their brand, their social media. When it’s about ‘me’ and then not about ‘us,’ well there’s no way to succeed as a team if all you’re doing is thinking how selfish it is for you to get the attention.”The barber responded, “It’s cool to show the world how great you are, but the most inspiring thing is how great you can make others.”Brady, who is slated to begin his broadcasting career alongside Kevin Burkhardt on the top Fox Sports NFL announce team, was asked if he would “pick up the phone” should a starting quarterback go down late in the season.“But I don’t know … I’m always going to be in good shape, always be able to throw the ball. So, to come in for a little bit, like (Michael Jordan) coming back, I don’t know if they’d let me, but I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”
