The worlds of sports often collide, even more so on social media. And sometimes, when top athletes engage on social media, it’s about their merch. In a similar interaction on Instagram recently, Alex Rodriguez took to thanking Tom Brady for some of his hoodies. A-Rod was seen sporting these in a story that he posted on Instagram and was quick to thank the NFL legend for it.

The former New York Yankees player has recently undertaken several business operations and is reinventing himself as a businessman now. The nature of his new ventures includes a variety of investments under his chief corporation, the A-Rod Corp. The firm includes ventures around private equity and venture investments and builds on his initial real estate investment. Also forming a part of his business initiatives are a SPAC and an ownership stake in two professional basketball teams.
