Perhaps this explains the winner that is Tom Brady

Thanks to Jesse Itzler  for this story.

Years ago I bought into a horse with a bunch of friends. It was a one time thing we did strictly for fun. TB was part of the group. We named the horse “GUTS”.

Anyway, the horse came in 2nd in it’s first 3 races (which is absolutely AMAZING) and we were convinced we had something special.

Right after the next race, I called TB to give him the results from the track. I said “Great news….Guts came in second again”. The phone went silent.

Finally, after a long break Tom said “This is terrible”
I said “Terrible? There were like 10 other quality horses and we came in second”.

Brady said “Jesse, this horse needs to understand what it’s like to win”.

I said Tom…it’s a horse.

He said…”it doesn’t matter what it is.”
