One of the most interesting parts of that discussion was Bruschi pointing out one of the moments he realized he was no longer himself prior to his decision to retire. He mentioned that it came while he was viewing a “splice of film” where he watched himself perform during a drill during the 2009 training camp that was similar to one he had also done back in 2004. After watching the two Bruschi said of the 2004 version of himself, “Man, that guy’s good,” whereas after seeing the 2009 footage his thoughts were, “Man, that guy’s slow.”
