Tom Brady and FTX CEO in unseen video
As unseen videos of Tom Brady and Bankman are leaked, the NFL world goes into a frenzy. Tom Brady called the billionaire ‘my boy’ in the video as they got together in the Bahamas.
A fan questioned Sam’s credibility as he couldn’t take him seriously post this video, where Sam just bobbed his head before walking away.
How the hell did anyone take SBF seriously? I just do not get it.

A user had something personal with Sam’s hairstyle. His stereotyping of Sam for his hair, in fact, did end up saving him from a financial crisis.
Lol. People rated FTX. I saw the bros hair and thought no thank you. Hair like that can clearly not be trusted with money.

This fan’s conspiracy theory puts Tom Brady under the radar.
Tom would not be with him if he wasn't a criminal himself.

One video wasn’t enough
Another longer video appeared between the two. Similarly to the other one, it wasn’t clear if it was used for promotional purposes or not. However, the content that they may have been going for back in the day has only come back to haunt them. As the video goes about Brady was causing errors on the device. This narrative didn’t age well as the company is exactly in an ‘error situation.’ As usual, fans were at their candid best.
This fan couldn’t get their head around the whole situation, as she called them looters.
I don't know they loot. They just smiled and asked your money then run away
