blank, did tom brady have any knowledge of these balls being deflated. no. so you are saying he s completely innocent in whatever happened to those balls? in my opinion, yes. because in your statement some people pointed out, that is not something you just came out and said point blank, was that intentional, was that what was the thinking on that? well really i was just more trying to focus on the report and how it was written. and the fact that it really truly was not an independent investigation. as far as you are concerned, if tom brady was to make a statement, he would make a statement saying that he is completely innocent. i think he s already said that in the press conference after the afc championship game. and he would continue to say that you believe? yes. don, you mentioned he hasn t had contact with the league yet. what do you guys anticipate as
saying brady brady, brady. we heard someone was offering 1,000 dollars for a ticket to go inside. and everybody is very friendly to tom brady here. nobody who i asked seemed to have a problem. they thought the report was heavily weighted to the nfl and the reaction was look rat what this team and that team does. everybody is aware this report came out but it doesn t seem to be phasing the people who came out here in support of tom brady and the patriots anderson. and deborah. do you know how many people this auditorium holds? i heard thousands? reporter: it holds about 4,000 people. and we heard initially when the tickets went on sale. they virtually all sold out. we were trying to get a couple of tickets to get inside but the

for this report and brought up other text messages released of other peoples that he felt weren t jermaine to the case and you said there was a reason why. and the text messages were put in the report to one of the officials mother because it talked about some memorabilia of tom brady that he wants to pass on to her and there was in the report that he paid those low level officials extra sneakers and signed posters and that is why they were included in the report. and the investigators say that when they talked to tom brady about trying to get access to his phone records that they volunteered to have tom brady and his representatives vet the material first and only release to them what they thought was jermaine and relevant. obviously tom brady doesn t want to give up his private text messages to gisele. so they tried to find a way
