There were jokes about Gisele Bundchen, deflate-gate, the failure of cryptocurrency, and other topics in the Netflix roast of Tom Brady. During the mocking of the former quarterback for the New England Patriots, Tom Brady, the man of the hour, did not mince words with Bill Belichick.
Uncensored comedy abounded throughout the evening, and when Brady eventually took the stage to close it out, he cracked a fantastic joke about his former coach.
“Everybody asks me which ring is my favorite,” Brady said. “I used to say ‘the next one.’ But now that I’m retired, my favorite Ring is the camera that caught Coach Belichick slinking out of that poor girl’s house at 6 a.m. a few months ago… hey, you’ve still got it! Respect, baby.”
Belichick could only produce an uncomfortable grin as Tom Brady pointed at him from the stage.

Around that time, Belichick had recently broken up with longtime girlfriend, Linda Holliday, so there’s also speculation about how the clip could have something to do with their rupture.
Four months later, Belichick would lose his job and not find another one during the most recent coaching cycle around the league.
Brady wasn’t the only former Patriot who cherished the chance to joke with the coach who would one day be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman, the champions of the Super Bowl, also had a shot.
For the cornerstones of the Patriot dynasties, it seemed like a somewhat healing evening. Finally, they were ready to let their hair down for an unforgettable night in Los Angeles. The franchise veterans had been keeping everything under wraps for years, and it came out in a joking manner.
