The Tom Brady Roast was an A+. And I'm very thankful for @netflix and everybody involved not inviting me. I'm glad Brianna and Feitleberg got to go. Keeps me humble and hungry. Knocked me down a few pegs which is exactly what I needed. Truly blessed to not be invited.

“I’m so honored to be here for the roast of Tom Brady on Netflix, not to be confused with the roast of Bill Belichick on the 10 Part doc”

"We all appreciate Gronk because he just gets to be Gronk, but the funny thing is we were all sitting up there on the stage and we can see the teleprompter, and Gronk was so far off script that we did not know if he was coming back."
