One joke certainly got Tom Brady’s attention.
During “The Roast of Tom Brady” on Netflix, legendary comedian Jeff Ross was taking his turn laying into Brady, as is the show’s purpose.
But things took a turn when Ross started talking about Brady joining the Patriots after being drafted 199th overall in 2000.
“Tom became a Patriot, moved up to New England, and on the first day of training camp, that scrawny rookie famously walked into the owner Robert Kraft’s office and said ‘I’m the best decision your organisation has ever made,’” Ross said. “Would you like a massage?”

Ross blew a kiss to Kraft, who was in attendance. That’s when Brady got out of his seat and made his first audible reaction of the night.
“Don’t say that s–t again,” Brady, who was smiling, told Ross.
Kraft was charged with soliciting prostitution in February 2019 after a multi-county investigation into massage parlors in Florida, with police saying they recorded Kraft paying for sex acts at the Orchids of Asia spa in January 2019.
Kraft pleaded not guilty, a federal judge in Florida later ruled that the recordings were filmed using unlawful surveillance and must be destroyed.
The case was dismissed in September 2019.
“I am truly sorry,” Kraft said in a March 2019 statement about the case. “I know I have hurt and disappointed my family, my close friends, my co-workers, our fans and many others who rightfully hold me to a higher standard.
“Throughout my life, I have always tried to do the right thing. The last thing I would ever want to do is disrespect another human being.
“…As I move forward, I hope to continue to use the platform with which I have been blessed to help others and to try to make a difference. I expect to be judged not by my words, but by my actions. And through those actions, I hope to regain your confidence and respect.”

Though he reacted to Ross’ joke about Kraft, Brady notably stayed silent during Ross and host Kevin Hart’s expletive-laden digs at his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen and the couple’s divorce.
The comedian and movie star went right after Brady over his divorce from Bündchen and the future Hall of Famer’s decision to continue his football career and jeopardise his marriage with the former model.
“When you got a chance to go 8-9 and all it will cost you is your wife and your kids, you gotta do what the f–k you gotta do,” Hart said. “You gotta do it.”
And that was just the beginning from Hart, who continued to hit Brady below the belt with jokes over his divorce.
Hart proceeded to compliment how well the two co-parent together and that she was there to support Brady on his big night.
“But just for full transparency, she came as Antonio Brown’s plus one,” Hart said.
The former Patriots wide receiver had trolled Brady with photoshopped pictures of his face onto Brady’s body in photos of the quarterback with his ex-wife.
And just when it looked like Hart was going to start moving onto another subject, he hit him again where it hurt.
“You f–ked him good,” Hart said about Brady’s decision to leave New England and abandon then-head coach Bill Belichick.
“You did Tom, you f–ked your coach. But let me tell you something, that’s what you got to do to maintain your happiness.
“Sometimes you gotta f–k your coach. You know who else f–ked their coach? Gisele, she f–ked that karate man.”
Bündchen reportedly has been dating her jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente since June 2023. “How did you not see this coming?” Hart Continued. “Eight f–king karate classes a day and she’s still a white belt!”
Ross also made a swipe at Brady’s divorce when he stepped to the mic after Hart, as did former Patriots quarterback Drew Bledsoe, who joked that his recent 28th wedding anniversary is something Brady would never experience.
