New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady abruptly ended his weekly appearance on a Boston radio station Monday morning after one of the station's hosts made a disparaging comment last week about Brady's 5-year-old daughter.
Brady told the hosts of the morning show Kirk & Callahan that he was disappointed to hear the comments made by another host last week and is reconsidering whether he will appear on the station, WEEI 93.7 FM, in the future.
Last week, host Alex Reimer called Brady's daughter, Vivian, an "annoying little pissant" while discussing the quarterback's documentary series Tom vs. Time.
"I've tried to come on this show for many years and showed you guys a lot of respect," Brady said Monday morning, according to the station. "I've always tried to come on and do a good job for you guys. It's very disappointing when you hear that, certainly. My daughter, or any child, certainly doesn't deserve that."
Audio of the exchange was not immediately available.
Reimer was indefinitely suspended by WEEI on Friday. A spokesperson for Entercom, which owns WEEI, did not immediately reply to a request for comment Monday morning.
Brady and coach Bill Belichick have made weekly appearances on WEEI this season, and the station announced Wednesday that it had agreed to a "multi-year partnership extension" with the Patriots to ensure the continuation of those appearances.
Brady and the Patriots will face the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl on Sunday.
