Fox analyst Terry Bradshaw takes playful swipe at network over Tom Brady's $375million contract
Pro Football Hall of Famer and Fox NFL studio host Terry Bradshaw took a subtle dig at his longtime employer in reference to the mega contract they gave color commentator Tom Brady. Brady inked a ten-year, $375million deal with Fox back in 2022 and began his first year in the booth in 2024. That included the seven-time Super Bowl champion calling Super Bowl LIX for the broadcaster - which brought in record numbers. Bradshaw made an appearance on the To The Point Home Services podcast and joked about asking his bosses at Fox for a raise. The Pittsburgh Steelers legend even offered a hypothetical rebuttal if those in charge denied his request. 'Did you see the numbers they did? The largest Super Bowl in history. 126 million people,' Bradshaw said on the show. 'There's 330 million people in America. That is a ton. The Fox pregame show averaged 28 million for five hours. Who in the world is gonna sit around and watch that mess for five hours? 28 million.' 'You know how much money they made? God. More money than plumbers, I can assure you that. 28 million. 'And I guarantee you, if I go in there and ask for a raise, "Well, we don't have any… we're running a little tight." Well, you just paid Tom Brady $37 million a year. I'll take it. I did some bad deals, that's what it was.' Brady's deal is considered one of the richest, if not the richest, in all of broadcasting. It also comes right after he purchased a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, which has complicated (but not prevented) his job for Fox.

Ex Bucs' Tom Brady Shares Heartfelt Message on Parents Anniversary
Easter weekend came with some additional meaning this year for Tom Brady and his family. While they and the rest of the country commemorate the spring season, Brady had more to celebrate. Saturday marked the 56-year anniversary for Brady's parents, Tom Brady Sr. and Galynn Patricia. The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback took to social media to share his appreciation for the two. Advertisement "56 years ago in Browerville, MN… Happy Anniversary to the most incredible parents anyone could ask for," Brady posted on Instagram. "Over the years, you've shown our whole family what it truly means to build a life of love, laughter and faith. "You've taught us how to support one another, how to grow together, and how to face life's challenges. We're endlessly grateful for everything you've done and continue to do for us. Thank you for being the heart of our family. Here's to 56 amazing years—and many more to come." Brady's parents certainly have much to be proud of when it comes to their only son, one of their four children. The future Hall of Fame quarterback has seven Super Bowls to his name and three league MVP awards. That same support has powered Brady's ventures off the field as well. Brady has translated his success on the field into a career in the broadcast booth as Fox NFL's No. 1 color analyst. February marked the end of his first season on the job, concluding with the call for Super Bowl LIX. Advertisement An entrepreneur and business owner as well, Brady has parlayed that success in those areas to some pretty notable investments. He backed Colossal Biosciences who recently made a shocking scientific break through after bringing the dire wolf back from extinction. All these successes have stemmed in some way from the unwavering support from his family. Clearly, he is grateful to have enjoyed such a privilege.
