“Holy sh*t, this man is gorgeous,” Burgundy said. “I’ve seen him on TV before but in person, e-chihuahua.”

Burgundy had to tell himself to “pull it together” as he was mesmerized by Brady’s physical appearance, adding, “He’s making you question your sexuality. Stop looking at him. You’re here to make fun of him, not fall in love. Concentrate!”

“Tom, it’s clear, everybody up here loves you,” Burgundy said moments after unsuccessfully trying to lead a chant against Brady. “I love you, although it might just be lust. Could be love, we’ll never know.”

Burgundy continued, “I can’t wait for you to be up there on Fox Sports commentating on the game you loved, or playing for the Raiders in the playoffs, or coaching the Patriots, or whatever the f*ck you’re gonna do.”

“I mean, let’s be honest,” Burgundy added. “Your best years are behind you, Tom. The Super Bowls, Gisele, your movie career, it’s all done, it’s all gone. But you won’t be forgotten, you’ll always be remembered as Eli Manning’s bitch. Don’t let that get you down, Tom.”

Burgundy then said, “Only one man hates you,” before introducing his former Patriots coach, Bill Belichick.
