Barstool Sports founder and president Dave Portnoy is disgusted that he wasn’t invited to the Netflix special “The Roast of Tom Brady,” which aired on Sunday night.
Tom Brady took center stage for the roasting event, in which high-profile celebrities and NFL personalities took turns making fun of the seven-time Super Bowl champion and three-time league MVP.
Legendary comedian Kevin Hart hosted the event, which included appearances from Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, Peyton Manning, Jim Ross, Kim Kardashian and Andrew Schulz.
Obviously, only so many folks could receive invitations to a highly anticipated event featuring one of the world’s most recognized and beloved celebrities. But don’t tell that to the Barstool Sports president, who expressed anger over being snubbed during the “BFFs” podcast.
“I thought I was a little bit of a bigger star than I am. Clearly, I overestimated myself. Everyone in the sun made it to the event. I didn’t even get a ‘Hey, we’re doing’…Half my company was there and got invited apparently, except me, which is strange…Other than that, it was great.”
Portnoy is a renowned die-hard fan of the Boston sports teams, and given his platform, one can understand why he truly expected and hoped for an invitation. But again, there was no way of fitting every high-profile celebrity, athlete or sports personality connected to Brady.
Tom Brady Is Gearing Up For His NFL Analyst Career
It’d be easy to understand why some folks were skeptical about Tom Brady staying retired last year, seeing how his initial retirement only lasted 40 days. But TB12 is indeed done as a professional football player, and now he’s getting ready to begin his highly-anticipated career as an NFL analyst for FOX Sports.
Brady signed a 10-year deal with the network worth a whopping $375 million back in 2022. He’s set to begin the contract this fall, where the soon-to-be 47-year-old will work alongside play-by-play man Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporter Erin Andrews.
The future Hall of Fame inductee will call “America’s Game of the Week” with those two, as well as four playoff games (one in each round). FOX will broadcast Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
