One or more hours -- seven days a week minus of course commercial breaks and silly little. We please wait and talk about what's important to you. Talk station ATM's -- double RKO. Really it's it's a leak things whatever the deal is I'll tell me you know. The details of that. A lot of -- so. Conservatives -- will comply with the.

Good music -- extract while that -- a blast from the past that was a voice the voice of Bill Belichick. As he appeared on the -- Broadway show on our sister station in typical ballot check fashion he spoke but said nothing. Absolutely nothing whatsoever but they'll be he'll be a lot of talk about this because they headlines in each of the Boston papers and he could only imagine what the New York papers particularly the New York Post this thing about the situation. It's not just that it is the the an outgrowth of the jets game the other day because that it was a mismatch that game wasn't even close. The camera situation was the camera was confiscated in the middle of the first quarter so in my opinion it had little or no effect. On the outcome the outcome was a drubbing -- as you know -- yeah count.

Got the jets it created really didn't count -- lit literally looked like a team of men playing against pop wanna team that was that much of a mismatch but this issue of Belichick and the genius of bell a check they share with you right at the outset the program this morning here on six AD RKO and parents -- my recollection of an event an incident that it happened during a playoff game. I can't remember whether it was against the Steelers the jets within the past couple of years I'd say within the past three years. -- checked comes right out on the field. Wraps his his his arms around for able -- what to write the giant says something to -- skips off the field rainbow anticipates that very. Next play that call bull. Makes that tackle it was one of those turning points in the game the other team had been on the move the other team was coming down into. Patriots territory is by -- recollection. And telecheck did not talk to anybody else he just talked of re able now dribbles talented. And re able -- about this stuff they say he's a good good player with the upper the brains of coach -- so it's really a double dimension. That you're up against when rebels on that field in any way shape before. I'm interested in your view on this does this tarnished. Bill belichick's genius what do you make of mr. Kraft comments. That all of this is -- on out of jealousy this is a team that brought in Randy moss apparently on the theory that and will do anything to win. And I and clearly must had a great game the other day Rodney Harrison troubles a pretty well known with talked about the we admire Rodney as a player. Andy seems to be -- just an up straight forthright guy basic knowledge that what he did was wrong he's going to take a special punishment like a man he returned to the football field like command as well but does this change your opinion and is. Bill Belichick success tied to work cheating to breaking the rules are is it just that the plays there's a period 6172666868 Joe was scholar from Oster bellagio welcome.

Eight army baby right I'm doing great out things a beautiful Cape Cod excellent start weighing now it's a little strap okay but he drive carefully. I will thank you.

What's so what's your take on this this big big story when the -- in the globe -- headline about the patriots and allegations of cheating you know it's going to be the talk of the town.

I do you know -- to report you know 24 hours plus Eric I just think a lot of people were -- it here. What I'd -- message out I think it was in the point Apollo. It's you know it's not a huge deal on the -- and it does happen a lot appointment of the matter is is. You gotta play by the rules if you don't then you can't expect any other -- by the rule.

do you think this this kind of creates its own has its own contagious affected everybody will start to try to do this. -- is everybody just going to be more vigilant against the patriots who apparently have done it on more than one occasion there's at least one other instance. Not with a camera was confiscated but with the same guy who this this this patriots employee who was grabbed on Sunday he was involved in a similar incident apparently against Green Bay. And they did not take the camera in that case. But they did move him off the sideline for inappropriate behavior and being in the wrong place.

Okay well used to go back yeah I believe your first question I don't think these Soviet into 80s the fact I actually think it'll it'll dip for any future. You know things like this in the week why but what I -- at stake is you know you're talking about your recollection of previous play a few years back we were able out. There are that this -- is what you're listening you know what you probably on the market that's probably exactly what happened and it happened the few times more than we probably now.

Joe are telling me it was amazing have played a little bit of football I was a particularly good but I love the game Andrea just loved the competition in the -- and the chest out of it as well as just the physical contest that is out there it's a brutal game in these guys of the best. That he'll ever say. What are -- what I watched -- ballot check in re able and brave bulls. Instantaneous translation of whatever ballots exits on into a game when I'll probably game changing play and listen to this quote from Mark Whipple he you know -- at umass had very good coach by the right. He's quoted in today's globe it always comes to one play -- the fourth water in if you can make that call at that time in -- you know what did doing. It's a great. Advantage that's those -- the exact words of of of Mark -- this guy knows what he's talking about and that it.

Scrap -- problem not a -- to -- probably need it became.

I'm tell India apps that only this was one of those momentum changing moments the patriots offense comes out -- stop the deep fences fired up the other team said you can see the other -- said. What -- Apple and while this one night you know. Bill Belichick is is is loved in this town he is just hello and yeah absolutely he's respected forever never never people rise to their feet when he comes into a room. And you know I I wonder if this is going to cast that in a little different like appreciate the call Joe 6172666868 is the number Steve scholar from New Hampshire hey Steve welcome.

Aren't -- I do agree now let's take it just a quick -- might -- ate that aren't good Fred potter Jolie -- Jennifer yeah yeah absolutely and it bit by bit based speak very -- all right. Yeah I noticed is that. Okay now let's say bergkamp political initiate a -- figure out probably not yet a microscope now army now.

You know I I actually make an optimistic crafts pointed you know like I I think he's actually -- I don't think it's a statement that's very very -- coming in and kind of play it for everybody in a minute. But he you know I I don't think that everybody will fall under scrutiny I do think there's a little bit of I don't know resentment because the patriots have become the dominant team you know maybe that may -- dungy will fall under the same kind of microscope that Belichick is is operating under now you can imagine -- might well how big the microscope will be going forward for the rest of this year.

Yeah I didn't. I -- haven't you ever on the sidelines is that is that not Obey the rule or is it not a rule.

Yet know it's there it it's a rule and there are restrictions on what they can do what they can film where they can film. And all that stuff been a very specific rules saying that you cannot from the coaches boot thought the sidelines any other place tried to make use of a steel the other team's offensive and defensive defensive signals. And the you know that's what the allegation is that this they would steal and the jets signals not that Brady needed much of an assist against the jets the other day he had more -- Honest to god it it it literally every by the name of a guy went and -- for the red line frank. It was unbelievable.

Q are going to

it's all right Steve thanks for the call John scholar from lowly job welcomed the veterans moral. More on top pick one right ha ha pop up. Good -- giant like let's let -- what they're going to do it admits and stop the run down their throat.

You know what I. I'm not I'm not agreeing with -- I feel like we can do about it you know -- it's about to audible.

What I -- think about it like about it well liked. I don't -- after the game which is what they should be you know and figured out what they -- I don't EP. -- ever noticed that most of what Gupta -- all the time out but it's like a bunch of boxes.

you know what this is going to do more than anything else this will create distraction among the other teams and wonder what -- it's gonna do in an hour back was a master at this it wasn't necessarily that he was doing anything inappropriate but he was getting inside the -- So that they -- distracted from the essence of the game. And you know what -- that threat an an and Belichick by all accounts breaks down film and see these things that others don't -- said -- three of us army meal would Bill Belichick could be in the film -- later this morning right president plates and tags you and I would see it -- we wouldn't notice anything he would say three things that are like tip -- to something else.

I would sit in the words of commitment right. Smasher.

Hot hot hot hot hot job well done good god hey Andy can we go to that Bob Bob Kraft qaeda wanna writes I set a play that for the forum audience.

When you're successful in the -- thing. A lot of people want to try to take -- down and do different things and we on this them out.

While I don't know if I ask I wonder if Bob Kraft would like to take that statement back the sense that this is done out of end the jealousy are resentments.

The fact that you know I was closing comment we understand that I mean business does does that mean when the patriots were not dominant and other teams were in the league. That there was similar and the resentment then efforts to take. The dominant team down I just don't think it's -- I don't know I don't think it's becoming that's certainly not what we would expect out of you know one of the model franchises certainly of this. Of this region but the big news today obviously is this allegations of cheating and that you know my question is does it affect PI judgment does it affect your view bill ballot -- 6172666868 is the number Hewitt scholar from -- money you.

Let's go to component of what is -- like that pretty big number want everyone does this. I don't there's actually no doubt in my mind at this complaint hasn't come from -- somewhere down the line and don't look pretty tight pretty tight group in the end up I think everyone knows what everyone does this salt crossover encroaching doubt over the years I there's there's no way that this is not a onetime incident all want imminent thing that would act is that dirt. Like everything else the patriots to do -- is better doubted that everyone else and I didn't. That is something -- a part of a couple of previous caught an Internet quote from crowd but they're. Delete need parity to create you don't increased the -- revenues because if you pick out the patriots just absolutely carry through risky thing that's born.

yup oh yeah yeah he would try haven't you'd much rather have a 1716 games and you know the blow up that he had the other day

Ed and I think that you know I don't think they want to be you know blow -- every week.

It helped me out just -- if you help me understand something I think it is a contradiction in what you said right at the outset that first right to say that. Probably true that everybody does it does a lot of crossover everybody knows what everyone else's -- and we used the best techniques to try to get that edge okay let's let's take that as a given. And then you say the fact of the matter is the patriots do things better than everybody else and that explains his success. In this but to if everyone's doing and in this particular case they went don't have better than anybody else because they're the only team that had bagged that the only team that's been cited. And it is now coming out that this is not. Yes the first time so it's almost as if they -- Rude about it that it was an even skillfully skillfully done I'm sure you've heard the stories of great baseball managers or have somebody sit up the Senate field bleachers of the bullpen with you know telescope an -- catching catches signals. That kind of stepped out of baseball has been around forever and ever an -- and it creates its own legends I'm wondering what it is in this situation win. Almost very obviously the patriots are doing something that violates league rules it's not the first time for all of them. And clearly bella checked seems to always have an edge is this really the edge this spy in which has been going on.

I think that's a good question I. I've park -- believe that the coaching doubt the organization of all mean the tell papering answered the whole if I believe are always there or during a -- saying. And just like. You know at -- scouting out the other. Dedicate -- disdains and whatnot I used to think the pages organization is better at this than all the other 39.

Yeah hey you know it's going to be great will follow how this is covered over the next couple -- particular on the television broadcast because I wonder if the NFL announces will sidestep this in order to try to maintain some sense of purity and integrity or whether they're going to be upfront about it and say hey look what's going Haniyeh look what's been alleged because it ain't pretty. The notion of spying and cheating and break the rules isn't pretty even though it's you know even though -- the hometown team involved and have been big big winners get over the last several he has James his column from fox right James welcome to parents forum.

But I pushed rush -- be treated -- listen. -- why you're doing great thank you gentler version I was going to publish our lives did. I believe that skyward -- the -- stock. There you don't clash -- I've -- opportunity now. -- off but I got -- call commission dropped an option -- ignorant dog always quiet Google. I'm going to be taken started trial I don't like what -- about it.

How many children JBoss didn't have any cheerleaders and how many cheerleaders the going to take with you James and the it's always good to hear from agent all all of 76172666860 it has been about we'll be back with your calls on the ballot check spying scandal in a moment on AM 680 WRKO from a -- Elizabeth Thompson on -- to go. --
