Dan Patrick: "If you were asked, would you have been on the lineup to roast Tom Brady?"
Bill Burr: "No, I wouldn't, because I feel like that's what happened to him during his career. I don't think I ever saw anybody achieve the level that he achieved while getting all of this crap from an astoundingly cheating organization in the Indianapolis Colts... People on his level, like the Jeters and the Jordans and all of them, people are like 'isn't this amazing?!' But Tom's whole time they're weighing footballs. Even ESPN, they made up that crap about us filming a practice and then we proved that it wasn't true, and they retracted it on Twitter at like 2 in the morning. So I had no interest in giving this guy any more crap than he already got. Then all the ugly bastards out there were all excited when his marriage went south cause they can't even approach the local hottie in the townie bar, and it made them feel better. And Peyton looks like a number 2 pencil, so nobody felt intimidated by him, and that was basically it. Let's have a bunch of people go out there and make fun of the fact that his marriage crumbled, I don't want to do that... They asked me to do it a couple years ago when they first were going to do it and I was editing a movie and I just didn't have time. This time through, they didn't ask me, and I was really alright with that."
