Tom Brady is slowly becoming a successful entrepreneur. While his brand, ‘BRADY’, is now a popular one, that was not always the case. So as a good owner, Brady would often engage in photoshoots and act in commercials to promote his brand. Though one such attempt from a couple of years ago did not go down well with the NFL community at all.

The TB12 brand is expected to touch $1 billion in overall value in the near future. Given the kind of influence and reach Brady has, it is no surprise his company is making such huge leaps. While his commercials now are amusing for many, not everyone was impressed with his antics way back when this started.
Fans were disappointed in Tom Brady after he allegedly used fake videos for promotion
NFL fans are not easily impressed, but they are quite easy to disappoint. That was exactly the case when Tom Brady released a golfing video of him to promote his newest golf clothing line. In the video, Brady can be seen taking a swing from a fairway, and celebrating with those around him as the ball rolls into the hole. The video also encompasses a drone shot of the entire scenario. Though, fans were not impressed.

Why does the GOAT feel the need to continuously put out fake, clickbait edits like this? If LeBron tried pulling this type of stuff we’d never hear the end of it. Brady does it and it’s nothing but “Wowwww,” “Incredible,” “Goat things,” etc…

Ok, that's some form of CGI or other manipulation.

For fans, it was very obvious that the video was fake. Whether it be the random floating man in front of the camera or the way the ball bounced on its way to the hole. There were far too many errors for eagle-eyed viewers to latch on to as they berated him for such an act. Perhaps what infuriated them even more, is the fact that Brady immediately started dropping links to his merch right under the video.
Brady’s ventures are keeping him busy even in his retirement
The ‘Brady’ brand is not the only venture TB12 has dipped his toes into. Apart from the clothing line, Brady has a number of other companies. ‘199 Productions’, a media company, recently had a huge hit after releasing the movie ’80 For Brady’. He has a performance lifestyle brand named ‘TB12’, and he has an NFT platform by the name ‘Autograph’.
However, his ventures are not eating into perhaps the most valuable thing in his life: family. Unlike back when he was a player, Brady now spends a lot of time with his children, and his friends as well. Even when he starts his new role as Fox Sports’ lead analyst, he will not forego his ‘family time’. What’s next in line for Brady? How massive will his companies become?
