A ‘surprise’ appearance by former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick stole the show at Tom Brady’s Netflix roast.
Belichick was introduced by Will Ferrell (who played his character Ron Burgundy) and heard a song adjacent to Star Wars’ Imperial March.
“Ron Burgundy, the only member of the media I respect,” Belichick joked before entering his set.
“There are a lot of bad things being said about Tom tonight, I wonder why they invited me,” Belichick said.
When he got into it, he joked about Birmingham City, the English soccer team Brady bought, as well as Brady’s friend and dietitian, Alex Guerrero.
Bill Belichick took some shots at Apple and his former players at Tom Brady roast
“Seriously, it’s a huge honor for me to be here for the Tom Brady roast on Netflix…not to be confused with the 10-part roast of Bill Belichick during the Apple TV documentary.”
That’s a reference to ‘The Dynasty,’ an Apple TV documentary that seemed to have a negative tone in its portrayal of Belichick.
The coach then turned his attention to his former tight end, Rob Gronkowski, and mentioned an old mantra they used: “Do your job.”
‘Gronk, I’ve been watching you on Fox NFL on Sunday. And I beg you, please, stop doing your job,’ Belichick said to applause.
Then, of course, he turned to Brady: “People say Tom and I clash a lot,” Belichick began. “It was difficult to collide with Tom because he was so high up Alex Guerrero’s ass.”
He then burned Birmingham City, who were recently confirmed for relegation after a poor season. ‘For those who are not familiar with English football… let me say it in English: they suck. It’s not that easy to manage a team, is it Tom?
Belichick concluded: “For all those who think about who is responsible for the success of the Patriots during the time Tom and I were there. Was it Brady? Was it me? Was it Brady? Was it me? Actually, the truth The point is that it was both of us… because of me.
