It was all about the former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who stole the show at the Netflix 'Roast of Tom Brady' on Sunday night. The former head coach made an appearance and, in among the many hilarious shots he took at his former star quarterback, surprised many when he referred to the relegation of Birmingham City, the English side that relegated to the League One, where Brady is co-owner of the club.
After a brief and entertaining introduction, Belichick turned to Brady and said: "For those not familiar with English football... let me put it in English for you: they suck. Not so easy running a team, is it Tom?"
Belichick the concluded: "For all of you out there that think about who's responsible for the Patriots' success during the time Tom and I were there. Was it Brady? Was it me? Was it Brady? Was it me? In reality, the truth of the matter is it was both of us —because of me."
