OT: Tom Brady goes to bed at 8:30PM
They say sleep is over rated or that "I'll sleep when I am dead." But Tom Brady knows better. Looks like we now know why he always misses out on the late night posbangs threads.
Here's his take on the subject:

One would think she would tire you out and make you go to sleep early as well, no?
edit-- looks like a few beat me to it.

You are underestimating the goodness of Morning Sex.
November 10th, 2014 at 12:17 PM ^
Do you think Gisele will give Tom some lovin at 3:30 or 4 in the morning when she's trying to sleep? See, it's ok for women to wake men up for sex but not the other way around.
November 10th, 2014 at 1:46 PM ^
What does morning sex have to do with waking her up?
November 10th, 2014 at 2:15 PM ^
I think you should pose that question to the U of M Women's studies department for a better answer. Let me know what you find out.

I automatically upvote any PCU clip. Good movie.
November 10th, 2014 at 4:05 PM ^
Yes, but you went to the trouble of adding the picture, and that's why you get my upvote. I always appreciate those who make the effort.

but whats your rebounud rate?
November 10th, 2014 at 12:50 PM ^
November 10th, 2014 at 11:44 AM ^
... with Gisele.
November 10th, 2014 at 11:44 AM ^
Tom Brady also goes to bed with Gisele.
November 10th, 2014 at 11:51 AM ^
I think I'd spend a great deal of time in bed as well. Sleeping or not.
November 10th, 2014 at 11:51 AM ^

Well, the comments on this thread are consistent. Consistently understandable.
November 10th, 2014 at 12:10 PM ^
It's a scientific fact that men with hot wives go to bed at 8:30 and men with big fat ugly stinky wives go to bed at midnight.
November 10th, 2014 at 1:43 PM ^
are the, "I'll sleep when I die" types.
November 10th, 2014 at 12:15 PM ^
The difference, of course, is he does so on a pile of money, with one beautiful lady.
Me, it's my dog farting under the bed.

Quote from Brady regarding his sleep habits:
I do go to bed very early because I'm up very early. I think that the decisions that I make always center around performance enhancement, if that makes sense. So whether that's what I eat or what decisions I make or whether I drink or don't drink, it's always football-centric. I want to be the best I can be every day. I want to be the best I can be every week. I want to be the best I can be for my teammates. I love the game and I want to do it for a long time. But I also know that if I want to do it for a long time, I have to do things differently than the way guys have always done it.
I would like to point out here that nowhere in that quote does Tom use the words "sleep" or clarifies what he means by "up very early".
November 10th, 2014 at 1:06 PM ^
and its something that must go through athletes' minds. Sleep is so important to recovery and when you go through the punishment of a football player's life, recovery is ever so important.
November 10th, 2014 at 1:42 PM ^
"I love the game and I want to do it for a long time. But I also know that if I want to do it for a long time, I have to do things differently than the way guys have always done it."
November 10th, 2014 at 3:54 PM ^
and a paragraph break.
Tony Manfred (author):Tom, tell us how you approach sleep.
Tom Brady: I do go to bed very early because I'm up very early. I think that the decisions that I make always center around performance enhancement, if that makes sense. So whether that's what I eat or what decisions I make or whether I drink or don't drink, it's always football-centric. I want to be the best I can be every day. I want to be the best I can be every week. I want to be the best I can be for my teammates.
Tony Manfred (author):Now Tom, tell us a little about Gisele.
Tom Brady: I love the game and I want to do it for a long time. But I also know that if I want to do it for a long time, I have to do things differently than the way guys have always done it.

I have to take a different approach. Strength training and conditioning and how I really treat my body is important to me, because there's really nothing else that I enjoy like playing football. I want to do it as long as I can.
Even when I was working full time in the field, I still managed maybe 7 hours per night at most and now it is closer to around 6 to 6.5, but then it wasn't football I was trying to keep as a living. I kind of envy someone with that much drive and self-direction really.

Early to bed, early to rise
Makes Tom healthy, wealthy and wise
November 10th, 2014 at 1:03 PM ^
Happy, Healthy, wealthy people go to bed early and get up early.

Except for MJ. Watched the Dream Team doc couple weeks ago, during the Team USA trip to Europe, he would...practice with team, workout, play 36 holes of golf, then gamble with other players until 4/5 am.
November 10th, 2014 at 1:31 PM ^
November 10th, 2014 at 2:54 PM ^
One in a million people (possibly more) are like him. That is bad ass though.
November 10th, 2014 at 9:11 PM ^
But he was bad at golf (and gambling, according to rumors).

There are plenty of successful people who are night-owls. They just don't spend their lives telling everyone else how much they suck for not going to bed and getting up at the exact same time that they do.
A lot of athletes spend their lives having to get up really early for team meetings, so getting to bed early for them makes a lot of sense. For someone like me, I don't have an early morning job requirement and actually get a ton of incredibly productive s*** done late at night.
Everyone marches to a different drum. Note that I"m not saying sleep isn't important. But the the idea that sleeping from say 9 PM - 5 AM is somehow inherently superior to sleeping from 2AM - 10AM is just silly.
November 10th, 2014 at 3:58 PM ^
You can get a lot done in the wee hours when you're not being interrupted.
You have to get your sleep sometime. But if you're work is project-based and amenable to flexible hours, then within the rhythm of your group, I think it's best to work in the way that makes you and the group most productive.
Obviously, some of that (meeting time) will be during normal business hours. But not all of it.
November 10th, 2014 at 12:52 PM ^
in the same bed too.
November 10th, 2014 at 1:01 PM ^
Time for bed Tommy Boy!
November 10th, 2014 at 1:08 PM ^
I would not want to hop into bed with a skeleton with skin...

You must be one of the "more cushion for the pushin" types... I'm so glad guys like you are out there. It leaves the nice ones for guys like me!
Either that, or your wife reads the site.

So I guess this is how you get your freak on....
