Zolak & Bertrand: What exactly is Tom Brady doing?
Tom Brady’s bid for a stake in ownership of the Las Vegas Raiders took a hit this week as skepticism from other owners about Brady’s involvement may throw a wrench into the GOAT’s plans. With this latest attempt to add to his post-playing portfolio, Zolak and Bertrand can’t help but wonder what exactly Tom Brady is doing these days:
‘Brady’s into some weird stuff‘
Zolak: “I found it weird from the get go. You know to be that quickly sort of done with the league from a playing standpoint, but I want to go right into ownership. It was Vegas of all places, like you’re in bed with Mark Davis. And just how the percentages were off and what what was really going to be paid? It seems like you’re trying to pull a fast one right there to begin with, which gets the owners all on him. You know guy like Curtis Martin. He wanted to be part of a group that owned teams. There’s people that have wanted to do this before. Guys wanted to do it. Pete Manning has talked about this. Brady has his hands and his tentacles into so many things. Whether it’s F1, whether it’s the Electric boat racing. I mean, it’s it’s World League, Premier League, you name it. His fashion line, whatever he he’s got his hands on everything now. It’s putting on movies and producing stuff and it was film crews up and running and doing documentaries.“
Bertrand: “Brady’s into some weird stuff. Boat racing and all these entertainment products that I just look at and say how many of these things have failed? What gets you excited to invest in that? You got all this money. He’s into a bunch of junk. He wants to buy up a piece of the WNBA team, which he did. Buys this piece of a soccer team, buys a boat racing team, buys a pickleball team. What is with this? What a weird portfolio. What is all this crap?”

After parting ways with Bündchen, Brady appeared to have started a relationship with Shayk. They were photographed together in a cozy embrace during a weekend rendezvous, and Shayk reportedly spent the night at Brady’s Los Angeles home. However, their romance was relatively short-lived, as it was reported their breakup in October, without disclosing further details.
