If there is one thing we know about New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (other than the fact that he is one of the greatest football players to ever live, of course), it is that the man's work ethic is unparalleled.
How else would still be one of the most dominant forces in the NFL at 41 years of age?
Well, if you have ever wondered if there are any crazy stories about Brady's insane drive to win, former Patriots draftee and current USC offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury has one for you:

So, apparently, after a long night of pre-wedding festivities, Brady was out in the morning in the middle of a golf resort in the Bahamas training. Keep in mind that it's not like this was right before training camp in July or anything; this was in May.
It just goes to show the mentality of these great players and why they are so amazing at what they do. Sure, the natural talent certainly helps, but it's the drive to win and the refusal to settle that truly puts them over the top.
Think about this: some are talking about Brady's “decline” this year, and yet the man has still thrown for 3,979 yards, 24 touchdowns and nine interceptions while completing 65.9 percent of his passes and registering a passer rating of 97.6.
Is he still the same Tom Brady we saw in his prime? No, but he is still one of the best players in the league, and the Patriots—as vulnerable as they may appear—will remain a threat as long as he is under center.
