Brady's Netflix roast features lots of humor, reunion between Kraft and Belichick
The only time Brady objected to a joke was when Jeff Ross made a reference to Patriots owner Robert Kraft and massages. Later, Kraft and former Patriots coach Bill Belichick did a shot together on stage after some coaxing from Hart. And having Tom Brady and him was the greatest honor the good Lord gave me,” Kraft said. Rob Gronkowski got Belichick and Brady to do a shot together after his monologue. Belichick appeared at the beginning of the roast during a pre-taped segment when he told Brady that he was “starting the roast” instead of Drew Bledsoe.

Cornell’s Greek Tragedy - The Cornell Daily Sun
I was initially swept up in the affinity of belonging that often accompanies membership in one of Cornell’s Greek organizations. The truth is, our campus’ social culture is set up in an inherently predatory way, whether or not individuals enter into it with intention or awareness of that fact. Newsletter SignupBecause of my privilege and previous complicity in Cornell’s Greek life system, I find myself uniquely situated to speak out about our campus’ broken social culture. Her fortnightly column Just Carlin’ It Like It Is centers around student life, social issues, Cornell life hacks and the University’s interactions with the broader community. The Cornell Daily Sun is interested in publishing a broad and diverse set of content from the Cornell and greater Ithaca community.
