Tampa Bay Bucs Tom Brady Is Challenged By Work-Life Balance During NFL Season

Bucs Quarterback Tom Brady has had a tough week.

I can't imagine being the spotlight to the degree that your professional and personal life were constant topics for discussion and public consumption.

On the Let's Go! podcast this week, Brady made a point about the difficulty in balancing work life and personal life. "I almost look at like a football season like you're going away on deployment for the military. And it's like, 'Man, here I go again.' The reality is you can really only be authentic to yourself. Right? Whatever you may say 'Ah, man, I want to, you know, make sure I spend a little more time doing this during the season,' the reality is, is when it comes down to it, your competitiveness takes over and as much as you want to have this playful balance with the work balance, you're going to end up doing exactly what you've always done, which is why you are who you are."

There were some snarky comments and Twitter replies from fans in reaction to his commentary.

One person wrote, "Lol nobody told him to un-retire."

Last weekend I took my kids to Disney World. MJ teased me that I was a bad mom for not taking them to the parks. But there's no hard and fast rule that you MUST take your kids to a park while you are staying at Disney World. We found plenty of other things to do that, some of which were free with our stay. My kid are 5 and 2 and they were THOROUGHLY entertained. (These ideas may not work for kids of all ages).

And by the way, I titled this "less expensive" things to do at Disney, but technically, they are all free (with your hotel stay).

We spent half a day riding around on Disney transportation and my kids LOVED it. No lines and we got great views of all the Disney properties, from Epcot's Spaceship Earth to MGM's Tower of Terror and all the cool hotel properties.

You can walk around and look in all the shops. Of course, you'll spend money on shopping and dining, but you gotta eat, right?! My kids just enjoyed seeing some of the musical performances and all the hustle-bustle.

If you are at a park all day, you can't even take the time to enjoy a dip in your hotel pool. And they all have cool themes and amenities. At the pool at the Art of Animation Hotel, there were plenty of fun places for the kids to climb on and explore.

Again, what's the point of spending all that money on your hotel room if you're only in it to crash after a park firework show, and then you bounce out to hit a park first thing in the a.m. They have colorful themes and furniture. And we packed all of our Disney princess costumes, so one night we just chilled in the room and did fashion shows.

Whether it's the Animal Kingdom Hotel with all of the animal viewing opportunities or the Art of Animation hotel with photo ops around every corner, take the time to walk around whatever resort you at and take in all the Disney details.
