Jan. 8 (UPI) -- Was Instagram without Tom Brady really Instagram?
The New England Patriots quarterback is 40 years old and just finished his 18th regular season in the NFL. But even with five Super Bowl victories under his belt, Brady keeps warning everyone about an upcoming storm he is bringing.
"'Fate whispers to the warrior, 'You cannot withstand the storm.' The warrior whispers back, 'I am the storm.' -- Unknown," Brady posted as the caption for an Instagram post Monday.
This is the second time this season Brady has mentioned a "storm" on his popular social media account.
On Dec. 23, he posted: "The calm before the storm..."
Monday's post came after an ESPN article last week cited friction behind the scenes in the Patriots' franchise between Brady, coach Bill Belichick and owner Robert Kraft.

The Patriots followed the article by making a statement, calling the claims "unsubstantiated, highly exaggerated or flat-out inaccurate."
Brady led the league with 581 passing attempts and 4,577 yards this season. He completed 66.3 percent of his throws -- the third-best mark of his career -- and threw 32 touchdowns against just eight interceptions.
The Patriots host the Tennessee Titans in the AFC Divisional Round of the playoffs at 8:15 p.m. Saturday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. New England has won six consecutive playoff games at home.
