Tom Brady names which crew he wants to emulate for $375,000,000 FOX broadcasting career
Tom Brady won't begin his broadcasting career with FOX Sports until next fall. However, he is already thinking about how he wants his tone to come across to NFL fans. On this week's episode of his "Let's Go!" podcast, Brady spoke to Jim Gray about some of his favorite broadcasters and analysts.
He spoke about TNT's NBA pre-game tip-off and broadcast. He stated that he's a big fan of Ernie Johnson as well as Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal and Kenny Smith.
"I love Ernie in there and he's trying to play traffic cop between between Shaq and Charles and Kenny. It's an unbelievable group," Brady said.
"I've been on that show a few times. I'd love to be on there with him [Shaquille O’Neal] but those guys have the best charisma. I got a lot to learn from them because they do have a lot of fun and when I start my broadcasting career next fall, I want to be just like those guys. I want to bring energy and fun and laughing but also education and not be afraid to take on some other important issues over time too," he added.
Tom Brady said he loves the charisma the analysts bring on the screen. He hopes that he will do the same next season. The quarterback's goal is to be entertaining while also knowledgeable and giving his take from his experience.
Tom Brady's investments and 2023 net worth in the spotlight
Tom Brady may be known as one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game. Outside of the NFL, he's making a name for himself in the world of business.
While still playing, he created the TB12 wellness method. It focuses on overall wellness and recovery and has locations across the United States, including Tampa and Boston.
Since his retirement in March 2023, he has invested in the WNBA's Las Vegas Aces. The team just won their second consecutive championship last week. He's currently in the process of being approved to be a minority owner in the Las Vegas Raiders.
That transaction is currently at a standstill as the NFL owners decide if the 'discount' owner Mark Davis gave Brady is allowed. He also became a partner in the Birmingham City soccer club this past summer.
One investment Tom Brady would like to forget is the endorsement of the now-failed cryptocurrency brand FTX. He and his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen promoted the brand in commercials and were paid in stock options. While an exact number has yet to be finalized, Brady allegedly lost millions in the downfall of FTX.
As of October 2023, Tom Brady has an estimated net worth of about $300 million.
