Pete Crow-Armstrong, the young outfielder for the Chicago Cubs, is having a dream season, as at just 23 years of age, he is already an All-Star, a candidate for MVP and one of the most complete emerging figures in Major League Baseball
Throughout history, we have witnessed many ascents to the top, but once at the top, they suffer from altitude sickness and begin to descend precipitously. However, one athlete who knew how to reach the top and stay there for a long time is Tom Brady.
That’s why the legendary quarterback may be the best person in the world to give advice on how to get to the top and what to do to stay there
Tom Brady shares his philosophy of life with Pete Crow-Armstrong
Brady gave him advice not about baseball, of course, nor about football, but about the sport itself, he shared his philosophy of life and some of the keys to his success.
In a recent meeting during a sporting event, Brady shared a revealing chat with Crow-Armstrong, in which he highlighted the importance of having good mentors early in a professional career.
It is important to have the right mentors, because they have already been through what you are going to face
Beyond inspiration, Brady offered a very practical perspective: long-term success depends not only on talent, but also on physical and mental resilience.
Some people have a natural physical gift, but they can’t bring competitive endurance to the office every day. One day they do well, the next day they do badly
According to him, all players can get injured, but those who succeed are those who recover faster and know how to maintain the competitive rhythm day after day.
Why is Crow-Armstrong so special?
Crow-Armstrong, who has already shown a unique combination of speed, power and defense, seems to be taking that advice seriously. And it couldn’t come at a better time: the young outfielder is projected to earn up to $200 million in future contracts if he maintains his level.
Pete Crow-Armstrong and his meteoric rise
Pete Crow-Armstrong‘s career has not been an easy one. Although he was selected in the first round of the draft by the Mets in 2020, his first steps in MLB were discreet, however, he persevered and today, with the Cubs, he is leaving a mark that is hard to ignore.
With 25 home runs and 25 stolen bases before the All-Star Game, he joined an exclusive group that includes Bobby Bonds and Eric Davis. Not even Shohei Ohtani achieved that feat before the mid-season break.
Defensively, he’s shining as one of the best. According to Statcast, he is the outfielder with the most outs above average (+18), placing him among the top 10 defensive seasons recorded by that metric.
For Crow-Armstrong, talent is no longer in doubt, but becoming the best is not just a matter of talent and Brady knows that what separates shooting stars from enduring legends is longevity, discipline and a constant mindset.
Brady’s message is clear: talent takes you far, but commitment to the process is what keeps you at the top.

Tom Brady Dishes Out Praise for Ray Lewis: ‘The Ultimate Competitior’
Jaylin Noel dared to do something Tom Brady would've never done in the Houston Texans' blowout victory over the Baltimore Ravens. After scoring his first career touchdown, the Texans' rookie wide receiver did Ray Lewis' squirrel dance, upsetting members of the Ravens' defense. In the latest edition of "Storytime with Tom Brady," the seven-time Super Bowl winner shared how he strayed away from doing things like that against the Ravens during his career, specifically Lewis. "I was definitely never going to get anywhere close to Ray," Brady said of the Ravens' iconic linebacker. "He was a tough man. I never was going to pick any fights with anybody out there, but I was going to instigate something and get the hell out of the way before I got my ass kicked."Brady and Lewis had a pretty fierce rivalry over their Hall of […]

Thursday Night Football: Philadelphia Eagles-New York Giants betting preview (odds, lines, best bets)
Brian Daboll’s Giants are no strangers to being home underdogs: Since hiring Daboll as head coach in 2022, the Giants have been the betting underdog in MetLife Stadium 23 times. That’s the most by any active head coach over that span. Cam Skattebo’s impact in the receiving game: The first-year running back has ample opportunity to leave his mark on this matchup amid a slew of injuries to the Giants' pass-catchers. This makes his 2.5 receptions line very attainable. Game Overview We kick off Week 6 with an NFC East showdown between the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles, fresh off their first loss of the 2025 season, and a Giants team looking to build momentum behind its young core. This matchup has been lopsided in recent years, with Philadelphia dominating the rivalry. Since Brian Daboll took over as head coach in […]
