"I'm going to go at that motherfu**er all day" - Throwback to Tom Brady's iconic comments that had Draymond Green in splits 

Ever since Tom Brady joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, he has been much more relaxed in conversation. This is in stark contrast to his time with the New England Patriots under former head coach Bill Belichick. The signal-caller no longer carries the burden of doing things "The Patriot Way," which involves being reserved off the field.

Around this time last year, Brady was a guest on HBO's "The Shop," a show spearheaded by Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and business partner Maverick Carter. The show allows its guests to speak freely on topics.

During Brady's appearance last year, he spoke about his thought process when facing off against certain players. His comments had NBA star Draymond Green laughing hysterically.

Here's what Brady had to say during that episode of The Shop:

“If they got a shi**y corner, I’ll say, ‘That guy’s unbelievable. I don’t know how they can complete balls over there.’ And in my mind, I’m thinking, ‘I’m going to go at that mother fu**er all day.’"

Green clearly enjoyed the comments made by the legendary quarterback. Green plays basketball with a similar intensity as the seven-time Super Bowl champion, and has earned four NBA titles has a result.

Will Tom Brady end the 2022-23 season with another Lombardi Trophy?

NFC Divisional Playoffs - Los Angeles Rams v Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Buccaneers' 2021-22 season ended in disappointment as they lost 30-27 to the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round of the NFC playoffs. It was a tremendous game for a neutral.

The Buccaneers were down big but managed to tie the game with less than a minute remaining. But Matthew Stafford and the Rams were able to drive down the field quickly and kick a game-winning field goal to send Tampa Bay home.

Brady retired shortly after that but returned after only a 40-day hiatus to take care of what he called unfinished business.

He will be hoping to lead the Buccaneers to their third Super Bowl victory this coming season. Tampa Bay took a step in the right direction in the offseason by re-signing star receiver Chris Godwin to a three-year, $60 million deal. They also re-signed starting running back Leonard Fournette.

Tampa Bay also addressed the loss of former slot receiver Antonio Brown by signing Russell Gage from the Atlanta Falcons. Gage will be flanked by Godwin (once he recovers from a torn ACL) and star receiver Mike Evans. The trio will shoulder a lot of responsbility following the retirement of future Hall of Fame tight end Rob Gronkowski.
