Tom Brady seems to have one regret about doing his Netflix roast: Why the retired QB will never do another one

It appears that one roast is enough for Tom Brady. 

After being subjected to nearly three straight hours of jokes during a live Netflix special on May 5, Brady has decided that he’ll never be doing another roast, but it’s not because he got his feelings hurt.
