Tom Brady ends regular radio appearance after host is rude to his 5-year-old daughter
Brady said that he does his best on the radio show before hanging up the line

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady abruptly cut a radio appearance he regularly calls in to on Mondays after a radio host on the station made disparaging remarks about his 5-year-old daughter last week.
Brady, who is set to start in this Sunday’s Super Bowl against the Philadelphia Eagles, said that the comments crossed the line.
“I’ve tried to come on this show for many years, and showed you guys a lot of respect,” Brady said. “I’ve always tried and come on and do a good job for you guys. It’s very disappointing when you hear [the comments about my daughter], certainly. My daughter, or any child, certainly don’t deserve that.”
He continued to say that he is going to reconsider whether he will return to the show.
“I really don’t have much to say this morning. Maybe I’ll speak with you guys some other time,” Brady said before hanging up.
The famed quarterback recently released his documentary “Tom vs Time”, in which is family played an important role. During a different radio show to the one Brady regularly calls into, the host Alex Reimer commented last week that he thought Brady’s daughter is “an annoying little pissant.”
Kirk Minihane, one of the hosts Brady spoke with, said that Mr Reimer had been suspended for the entire Super Bowl week because of his comments about the quarterback’s daughter.
The parent company of the radio station, Entercom, recently announced alongside the Patriots that they had signed a multiyear extension on their agreement. The two, in their announcement, said that the agreement included “broadcasting rights of ‘Patriots Monday’ and ‘Patriots Friday,’ headlined by five-time Super Bowl champion and four-time Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady.”
