“Told Me How Sh*tty I Was Every Day”: Tom Brady Takes Sly Dig at "Cranky Old Coach” Bill Belichick During Georgetown Commencement Speech

Brady mixed advice for graduates with a dig at his former coach, recalling six Super Bowl titles together and a long-running rivalry.

  • On Saturday, Tom Brady delivered the commencement address at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business, where he poked fun at his former coach, Bill Belichick, while challenging graduates to embrace discomfort.
  • During their 20 years together, Brady played under Belichick with the New England Patriots, winning six Super Bowls and famously adopting the slogan 'Do your job' as their team mantra.
  • Recalling the Patriots' comeback, Brady noted the Atlanta Falcons had a 99.7% chance of winning Super Bowl 51, urging graduates to fight when facing their own '28 to 3 moment' of adversity.
  • Jokingly referencing a 'cranky old coach' who 'screams at you all day,' Brady drew laughs while the two now pursue separate paths—Brady as a Las Vegas Raiders minority owner and Belichick as UNC's head coach.
  • Reflecting on his journey as a sixth-round pick in the 2000 NFL Draft, Brady told graduates that success stems from hard choices and that quitting remains the only true way to lose.
