You’ll probably think this is silly for a man my age.

Nevertheless, I’ve done stupid stuff before and I’ll bet you’ve done your share of them, too.

Keep it to but here’s what I’m thinking: If a guy like Tom Brady – at age 43 – can win a 7th Super Bowl ring, why not me?

This could be the Golden Age for Geezers.

It’s between the ears

4 months ago, Tom Brady led an improbable contender, the usually hapless Tampa Bay Buccaneers, to a Super Bowl victory.

Yep. It was his 2nd championship won in his 40s.

And Tampa Bay’s head coach Bruce Arians became at age 68 the oldest head coach to win a Super Bowl.

Maybe I lack the arm strength to throw a deep pass 80 yards. Maybe I’m not 7 feet tall and can see over pass rushers.

But winning is a mind game. It’s what’s between your ears that counts.

I’m thinking maybe I should forget going for a spot under center and stick to the sidelines where the real chess game is played.

Shane Beamer at the Carolina Gamecocks and Matt Rhule at the Carolina Panthers need my help badly.

It takes icy nerves

A little over a week ago another geezer, 50-year-old Phil Mickelson, showed what us old timers can do.

He snatched the PGA Championship out of the hands of the younger folks he was playing against.

With icy nerve and a calm demeanor he became pro golf’s oldest major tournament winner.

In auto racing, 46-year-old Helio Castroneves cannily passed Alex Palou, 24, with 2 laps to go to win the Indianapolis 500.

Helio admitted Brady and Mickelson were inspirations

“The old guys still got it, still kicking the young guys’ butts,” Castroneves told sportswriter Jason Gay.

It’s in the heart

In the NBA, Chris Paul is leading the Phoenix Suns to their best season in over a decade. In the WNBA, legendary Sue Bird, 40, returned for her 18th season defending the Seattle Storm’s title.

The French Open featured Venus Williams, 40, and kid sister Serena, 39, and another geezer, Roger Federer, 39. In gymnastics, ex-champ Chellsie Memmel returned at age 32 against rivals who wore diapers when she won her 1st world title in 2005.

Arthur Muir, 75, a grandfather of 6, has became the oldest American to reach the 29,000-foot summit of Mount Everest, only 7 years after he started climbing.

And boxing great Floyd Mayweather, 44, faced YouTube star Logan Paul, 26, this past Sunday in Miami.

Pardon me while I call Beamer and Rhule. They need me on the sideline.

I expect I’ll look stunning in black.
