Wanna throw something else out here on India on the today. Com I just mentioned there is a website out there did get a website bar -- sports David Portnoy runs that the Oprah as. He's on with Dennis and Callahan he's been on would -- The website is -- its interest. It's provocative it goes over the gadget deals with men in sports it's funny but I thought I had a good deals with it now women and lifestyles and stuff like that us. Sell it. He's probably and that website is not going to be sensitive. About the stuff that -- throw out there because that's part of your agenda when you're trying to throw it up you gotta be careful not to be too sensitive to throw out. Today I think they have gone off the catch a really. And I think that. Whoever made the decision whether sports lawyer the somebody else and I guess it's probably date or somebody else and there they just didn't like this one for. It was posted by Portland so most of them now they have pictures on a beach. Where is Tom Brady's wife Gisele Bundchen in a bikini. And the pictures -- taken with various. Focuses on various parts of the body opening game. She's a celebrity how to insert and yeah yeah she's she's in most cases and in my.
It is with an with an athlete I think most athletes would say a university of if they agreed on anything. When it comes to critical coverage -- Wednesday. Say what you got to say about me right talk about in the field make fun of maple again leave my family out of it but in Tom Brady's case you can't say that because. Internationally. His wife is more popular than He has in more well known and He has so she can not be. Left alone because she's a celebrity -- you -- No matter who you are you say leave my kids out.
He did not do that and that's where I think He went over the edge He has a nude picture of Brady's two year old son. On the website. It. It's full frontal I mean. All I can say is. That this is -- bar -- sports did not sit back have a little meeting and say okay guys. This going to plot and the funny thing about it is I'm looking at the comets from his own people it's not playing well on his own backyard and it shouldn't be playing well. And I'll give you what He what He what He pretty much says underneath the some commentary that's a big bleeping bleep for a two year old right. Just swinging lol like a boss I guess we shouldn't be surprised build that's what MVP QBs -- They impregnate chicks. Give birth to big bleep kids this Tom Brady does Peyton Manning -- children if He does I bet there bleeping Blake. Apparently he's gone -- somebody else's yeah it's probably. Where he's trying to write it off as a month it's just the two year old -- it's obvious to me. The Dave. -- does not have children 'cause if you literature.
And I'm maybe I'm being overly sensitive I don't think -- because I kept -- young children and ignorant in this day and age date in which you've got. Monsters out there on the streets. You see it all the time on television NBC dateline does this on a regular basis. You can't beat feeding on a website pictures. I'll -- and the biggest celebrity in this -- year old child food and can't put it.
Zaurus out of operating either by anybody and He can any kid it's. I did I just don't think you should be apart of -- you know we make fun of Brady. Going down the slide in -- front of them and make fun of them dance and can't evolve into an all the stuff and say he's a metro sexual quarterback and what happened to our quarterback. Okay that's fine.
All about alternative -- on general fine brown had she's a celebrity. I don't think get to meet all the two year old son -- advocates and -- year old son is a it's it's as terrible okay He didn't elect to -- become a celebrity and it's a two year old.
can't do this. I'm sure you can not do this with child porn and and I it was a I'm not certain Italian.
The date Portnoy and and forced to sports in and did the published child point I just don't think they fought this one out logically. What it does is it off the people that are actually out there are looking for child.
That's what you don't.
That was that you retention I know it without him on the show before I think he's funny at the whole website can be funny. They can be provocative they can be edgy but that's not I don't think he's a bad guy and I don't think that was isn't dead the result. Is horrendous nature invasion -- read this in my opinion now come.
A lot of people that question or anything Brady will do will bradys who might. I would. Yeah we're from my kid I was -- to -- I'd be pissed I'd be very pissed. As that's so wrong I think it Brady does anything. I don't think -- be suing I would say. His his -- would be taken -- citizen would get it -- yet this is what it probably you probably. And He probably would be smart to take it down now anyway but as we have learned. From Tony Bruno and only has to be up there for sixty seconds to finish her friend Paris that's a product that's the problem but. This is where because the regulations. Just don't exist. When you're dealing with the Internet world. This is why stuff like this up there are a lot of great things that happened on the Internet that probably would not know about. Because of many restrictions the deal in your traditional media. This is -- from where goes the the other way and.
Again I wanna repeat as people -- art or texting us and about I'm not sitting here telling you in any way. That the intention was to put child worn out I don't think that was it. It's a provocative site their trying to get people to go to the site. And obviously -- Go to the site every day ourselves in and look at it start today and said oh my god jumped off the page apple like all night when we look at. So committee. That wasn't his intention. But unfortunately there are people out there and there are a lot of political and use this and it's this is going to now become viral everywhere. And Brady's -- picture 82 year old narrowed. Is going to be distributed all over the world wide -- And that's where becomes a pro Soviet that I don't believe. Was to present our child -- that's what people us and our staff writer that was on the Internet now the process that may be the result. There was no thought process went into what it -- if it was if it was He didn't think it through. Pete and none of them over the fought it and throw. Not without your pilots get to phone calls -- what people talk about here to go to Matt that's in Rhode Island at bat.
And it went except -- say that an intention to do child pornography that it can run around have you seen. So -- new pictures of children on the web. Are you. I can be prosecuted for child pornography openly you can you could and I can. It's just like artistic sort all of the child actually talking about hoping some stock.
Yes yes yes that's bad idea sport to a lot of great -- listen if you gotta do it in your remembered appointment because. In anybody with cancer appears your uncle your on. You know we've all seen -- you know the first bat then in their running around accuser happy you know -- take a picture -- in their cute but He just leave it that. That's one thing. -- picture you take that nude photo and now you're bringing. You bringing that type of language to a picture. About a two year old you -- your -- if you plan to find one child pornography and I'm not -- line -- crossed yeah absolutely crossed the -- I think that's too much. Here's a -- down indicate my days.
Say I don't. Like you restart her brother. Hates a I -- oratorical while important are the essential. In the morning which generation count me in it seemed like early. Definitely crushed a line He should be taken not to station. He shouldn't promote anymore that's wrong that's. That in depth report or it. Child pornography. Knowledge -- about it. Integration throughout --
I always well -- that's not decisions yeah it also I think -- week we talked about this. It was earlier this week when we talk about Tony Bruno earlier this we work and we were saying look at some you don't overreact when somebody. Makes a mistake whether it is a mistake. In judgment that saying anything and posting something or mistake on Twitter or mistake on the air you don't overreact yet to look at everything so I think gates. It's a little knee jerk to say okay. This guy should be dropped from the station and you shouldn't talk about him anymore I agree I think we're looking at this situation a year. And looking at what He did here and you say not as sensitive.
Well we're tickets immediately where tickets of media from people or text and right now good saying that we're promoting it because. Where -- getting people that are now driven to the website as were talking that's what we do here. And we're trying to point out that there's something wrong here so I don't. Again you're right when people are saying you're driving people to the website to look at the pictures you're right guilty start. On the other hand should we totally avoid -- Islamic today's open. The next person's gonna talk about the next person's gonna write about it and it's gonna be a full fledged org this is what we do unfortunately. One of the pitfalls here's my our market car I'm mark.
Then mark you know what I agree with you on this is huge you get talked about it. I'm driving people of the web site at people's own op I heard about it I'm gonna go to that -- let American and -- instant look at that -- two year old kid. You know being naked you know they might think odds -- let it putting you know at that is that's wrong and Beckett gonna grow up. You know he's -- here about that and that is wrong open and you know I may dictate. Did -- know I'm not think on your show in the apology without an arcade. But I mean He can explain a couple of -- analysts. And I kinda count and and I had the wrong.
Well I'm sorry you know mark I'm -- so the first caller might wanna make too is an attorney. But Oregon is -- radio well or according to Indians to the bottom line I'm sure -- come up and no one's going to be kids already got to be exposed to all kinds of mean more than you can imagine media stuff for the rest is like because of whose parents are -- to started two years old -- naked photo I think this is so. So what wells -- Mikey has one thing about the family gathering around when kids eighteen years old. And bringing out -- picture of the kid in the bathtub wearing no clothes -- this is what they're gonna -- when He was doing is okay that's a family thing that's a private internal thing. What -- doing here is you're taking 82 year old child you've got a picture that obviously. You're taking you know somebody's taking it from afar with a telephoto -- this is not a family photo. But the bradys are handing over to media outlets like Vanity Fair that's it we're gonna do well for -- their two million dollars million depictions of our kids. Now these were taken. Why you know if you wanted -- paparazzi somebody from the distance with a telephoto lens off He got a hold of -- he's putting up on his on his website. You're dealing in a world right now with child pornography we hear about the perverts all the time people. You can't do this in society today I think you can take the perverts out of it still have problem with. -- It's not only it's the right to doing any low ever. Marshall sports as a picture of Tom Brady's two year old son. Newt is at right is it fair to freedom of the press isn't.
Well. A lot of people in the eighteen to text -- brought some good points. One Texas while it goes way down with on the scroll here when Texas. About the photographer that the depiction -- talk on the paparazzi about it about the guy who took that picture that's one two. Didn't He just let the photos from another website to somebody else ran photos and make you better for him somebody else. Ran those photos whether the guilty parties here yeah absolutely doesn't take. The bar -- sports offshore and Arctic name made the decision and under what I'm not taken up taken them off the hook at all saying. If you wanna look for a villain so to speak and the story airlock to villains here. Not not just Parcells sports matches port -- a lot of people. Contributed.
This idea is Rick he's employment they --
Hey guys I don't. I don't couple different take on the open one thing that by -- want to be taken up here and yet He. You ought to implement against these people that think they're out some kind of if you were what pulled all Columbia. You -- on -- Now cleaned up by the sport that we take completely off the out.
They're running it they're on the Internet the Internet is not controlled by the Federal Communications Commission.
Okay what does not regulate that well done regularly to be nobody Al Gore.
You just don't see I'm.
Prosecuted to the -- Applicant. May -- may very well happen. Now we're sure one on Tom Brady and one that I don't they spoke at a weight got it but it would put my kid on the airwaves like that are at right now -- at all.
Your father I'm a father Michael's a father Mikey as a father and that's probably. We're reacting that way I got a gut it's not that guy that's running the site is I do not believe his apparent and that is that and he's got to understand. The -- that he's putting this web site out and it's not. People that are just in his position in life. What do we know that four of her that he's not a I don't believe it.
It then I can empathize with -- parent on the that you let me pick it's. If people like QB out of my mind right.
I have -- I'm with you and you also know how crazy people are out -- this picture is going to be everywhere. There's Matt car iMac. I got -- that was going on.
UU three gentlemen our fathers.
Correct correct.
Yes go ahead at. --
I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm just very emotional about this story it and I have two small children -- all and end. I cannot believe as a society. That this has condoned. And accepted. As. OK maybe.
I don't think we are sitting here accepting I'm obligated -- we don't know we're doing just the opposite -- saying He is 100% wrong he's gone off the cliff. And it's a real issue here.
But you don't matter think and maps right. There are. I don't think a lot of people. Even on on his site loyalists to parcels were sent -- a lot of people. Our condone this no you can say in general general acute believed somebody thinks this is okay for the most part even people on this site are.
It's okay now we're reading the comments and his right in his own people or kill them. And rightfully so been killed them.
Who whoever posted these pictures. As a father. You better believe to be knocking on their door. And it because I know I'm not Tom Brady and my -- is not just now but. What happened in this -- in this society where. I can I do I get I I am I'll be --
word -- yeah it is beyond words it's I agree with you aren't believable. Because there are people -- going to take. These pictures they're gonna spread them out there and it's all for evil and that's I think that's a real issue up in his jacket -- what's up Jack. --
General -- or -- that is really I don't tweet where their I don't know it'll what it's funny thing did. -- Very amenable jolly that's got to spend at the door and I don't wanna risk that the standard. The amendment and I mean.
Don't go beyond yields the site because he's got He would -- owns the site you got to fire himself. -- Used. I mean.
It's excellent excellent I -- I might call I have grandchildren while I can't believe it and you'll benefit greatly. Because that as a -- Outdoor victory -- Arctic but -- just. All the -- great it'll help the you won't feel secure also the other approach to come to a at this wedding in the public area.
Don't brutal one on her bedroom area suburbs.
Listen I want to chime in this but I would tell you Ali -- happy -- happy dying yesterday. Because you talk about his basketball I boot -- to show. The basketball lives -- should have a list so this part about it -- it -- Red accent and I went out that you -- Olson's got excitement for. It was when He was set on static testing and other sites to us I want I would like to know. Is this paparazzi. And was tricked -- into different beat. The tech rich old would not be a potential a lot of people but I think your -- it's absolutely.
Our hearts and a Lotta Lotta people -- a lot of people are -- as the common as the comments the way -- interpreting it it's not the innocence. Over a two year old child on the beach with the sand in the wind and the waves in an innocent setting. Which you're doing is you're taking it innocent families setting. And you are trying to get into pornography that's what we a lot of taxpayers were saying -- directly into congress are presumed that the comments. Right -- over the is that Mike down the -- admit. I -- Microsoft.
They you know opening day -- and I think one is that yeah he's pulling -- from the site. Because. And it's -- you were at the moment one that says that. It. The occupant will all set. But the picture. I'm. Was -- picked up early reports had it up but I'm. -- is well oh I'm great having met up at all either on her okay so why -- even happy child -- in the first place.
While because it was probably an innocent family moment when you're out there.
They're not sitting here let's. -- people too.
They may be making lots of money they may have glamorous life. But they wanna do some of the things that everybody else does so they're trying to have a private moment you're probably looking at the pictures was a very private -- it's not like Iran and as.
Yeah and -- and they were probably trying to have a private.
moment somebody with a long telephoto lens from the distance makes a picture and next thing you know it's out there and you know might.
Sit there -- blamed the advice I think I think there are moments for both of them for for Tom and Gisele independently and especially when they're together. I think -- realized there's certain things that they can't do and and that is the price of fame and that is the price of of being. Rich you know 102530. Times over so I'm sure there -- many times. That they. Our defensive while we can't do that we can't go here we can't take this route because. So it's always going to be there the public is going to be there. But I don't think you can live your entire life even if you're rich and famous -- live your higher light on the defensive at all times even when your on the beach with your kid. Your kid wants to run around because it's 95 degrees outside it is when a plane in the water just.
Kids yet. It's a -- candidate for the all the -- could you can't sit there and say -- kids all they're all looking at us so we may have to make sure we tidy everything you can't do. In the same respect dead -- Gisele Bundchen is not gonna sit there and and and tidy everything up she's going out there and a bikini wearing it and by the what. None of us that problems with the pictures of Gisele out of the beach with a bikini. The trigger a public figure. This kid two years old. He's a private figure you just simply can't do that you can't publish your pictures of a two year old and -- audits and even if it wasn't robbery -- Don't let anybody hit yet yet don't know it. Here's Nelson -- Nelson.
Debit -- severing I had been -- I think that most it is. I'd put the porno every possible or smart -- So He knows that the that the new kind of backlash at that and --
I don't either I am unsure of how much I know it and then He misjudged it. Remarkably because he's going to get more attention today than he's ever gotten. And that's I. It also could be the most destructive day for him.
Right well ahead at like at the you'll that it just don't know that precedent and don't you get even get into that picture that Aaliyah. -- it is awkward like someone else and before you know it's not even the country. Ultimately put the complementary rather not give -- but. That the public -- very. Very calculated and you know we got to look at least -- the protocol before generic American. You know talked over got -- certain respects.
I don't I don't know what I I don't know what I agree with you but I don't know what that thought process is. While not totally confused I guess if you weigh the pros and cons against one of the -- you have to consider you have to bring in somebody I would bring an employer and today. -- What's the worst case scenario here but I've ever gonna talk it over with somebody I would talk it over with somebody with the with the -- I would. I must tell you I am shocked that some of the textures and I don't know why should -- but. I am this is one of Americans -- way too sensitive about nudity. That's not the issue most countries wouldn't give to beliefs about this that's fine it's hilarious OK art but then. Got to got to go to the next level got to go to the next next level start up at about nudity and I took my -- You know. When He one year old and in that's right in nineteen year old. And you're not talking -- nudity in a vacuum me. Well what will really get around. If He does get in trouble for is how specific He was -- was talking at the commentary commentary might be worse than that.
Ridiculous. Yeah there's no question about it and there are others that same exact same thing that you were just referring to what's the difference of the nude pictures that are shown. On the Internet of women.
These -- models. Talk about models who are more aid they know what they're getting to this isn't it should we can't get me a break -- cannot distinguish.
The difference between the two of them we've got to. Pretty sets society up there is -- Connecticut down.
Gentlemen we're -- almost. A much well a lot --
Org all right well. I don't know.
Does -- say to me as somebody who -- web site at our new you know a --
Our story to put out there as the host -- about the to a radio show today.
all I'm calculating got a table for that don't I don't I don't know. And to meet again Michael had it on see photos one.
Europe -- but the lack of that at the thing.
That commentary that you it to a issues. Is I mean it to and it took about read it all eight ending its chest goes beyond. Anything -- class.
And that's a kid of two human beings you don't meet it and and nevermind the future of the -- he's going to be five years old their brutal world you know because there aren't Saudi you know right. Cited -- ridiculous it's really overstepped I think that's -- of the issues to be honest with striking.
I really do I think that's the least of the issues the thing is that we're sick here -- world saying this is wrong and we're looking at. There are a lot of the political look at the site and say -- this is right. And that's what's really wrong. -- that's the real issue here.
Now let me out guys -- your audience and missed it personally to would you would you weren't operating issues but what you -- to a party.
Dot -- at the port can Alter it.
I don't know how long it's been up by solid 3 luckily it's 3 o'clock I think is one. When guys are 30 don't Israel right I can service job we know we had a guys a couple people who group called them Texans that Tom Brady's ago president operational of that. We know that's what happened understand the the -- But if you're Tom Brady's shoes do you think of you can do two things you can. You can pick what the guy. And in -- and take it down. Without any kind of legal action or -- really really. Really really pissed off and and you just wanna say okay you never do this again. -- And to shut shut it down.
