Phillies Changes, Eagles Injuries and the Price of Greatness with author Lars Anderson on Tom Brady

Author Lars Anderson joins The Heart of Sports to discuss his new book, Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness. Anderson explains how Tom Brady’s childhood, family dynamics, years at Michigan, and relentless drive shaped the greatest quarterback of his generation, while also examining the personal cost of sustaining that level of success.

They also react to the Phillies’ offseason direction under Don Mattingly, including changes to the coaching staff, questions about Trey Turner’s future position, and the need to rebuild the bullpen. Plus, they discuss the Union’s remarkable unbeaten run, the Eagles’ injury-depleted roster, Tanner McKee’s opportunity, and Lane Johnson’s lasting impact on Philadelphia both on the field and through his openness about mental health.
