Tom Brady took the jokes in stride at his roast — well, most of them.
Amid jabs about Gisele Bündchen, deflategate and his good looks Sunday night, Brady bristled at one in particular, aimed at the Patriots’ 82-year-old owner, Robert Kraft.
During his turn onstage, Jeff Ross quipped: “So Tom became a Patriot and 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 organization has ever made. Would you like a massage?’”
Brady then approached Ross, who’d blown a kiss Kraft’s way, and said in his ear: “Don’t say that shit again.” Ross replied, “Ok, Ok. He’s having fun, look at him. I love what you do for the Jews, Robert Kraft. You’re incredible.”
The joke was a reference to a 2019 incident...

The New England Patriots were likely stunned when news broke that their star tight end had been arrested for first-degree murder. But don’t expect them to say Anything about the ongoing case.
Aaron Hernandez’s arrest and first-degree murder charges on June 26 shocked the world, the NFL, and most definitely Aaron’s teammates on the New England Patriots.
