Roast ‘affected my kids’

Tom Brady sat down for an interview on “The Pivot” and said when the jokes were all about him, he loved it. But that “I didn’t like the way that it affected my kids.” He added that it was a bitter sweet moment because it was so fun but that knowing how much it affected the people he cared about most in the world, he’d never do it again.

Tom will be a better parent because of it

Tom says that back during “deflategate” he would watch only three things: soccer, golf and comedy shows. He adds that every time he’d turn on sports, they’d be talking about him and he was sick of it. He says it was a lesson for him doing the roast because he loves that everyone had fun but hates how his kids felt. Overall though, he says if you’re not laughing you’re crying so it’s always good to make fun of yourself from time to time.

In regards to his kids, Tom didn’t elaborate as to which part of the roast affected them the most. One can only speculate it was the jokes about his divorce and Gisele. But either way, the roast of Tom Brady generated 13.8 million views for Netflix that week. Let’s take a look at some of our favorite moments from The Roast of Tom Brady.
