Brady hopes radio host isn't fired due to disparaging remarks about daughter
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is showing the quality of mercy ahead of Super Bowl LII.
Alex Reimer, a radio host for WEEI, referred to Brady's daughter as "an annoying little pissant" while discussing her scene in a documentary titled "Tom vs. Time" - a project chronicling the latter stages of the quarterback's career.

Brady cut his interview short with the station Monday while defending his daughter, saying no child deserves such treatment.
During Super Bowl Opening Night, Brady said he hopes Reimer remains employed. Reimer has been suspended by WEEI.
"I would certainly hope the guy is not fired. I would hate for that to happen," Brady said Monday via Steve Buckley of the Boston Herald.
It remains to be seen whether WEEI acts upon Brady's suggestion.
