Tony just earned some serious respect from me for calling that Brotocross kid. Not that my opinion matters, but that was pretty freakin' boss. I don't even know what to say haha. I'm a bit blown away.

Is Tony trying to prove something to a blogger?

yeah that was interesting to say the least.

however, give Eazy a half an hour notice of the phone call and the conversation would have been MUCH different.

you could tell he was caught off guard

Brotocross or the poster sounds like a keyboard warrior. When it comes to speaking to the person he's spoken out about he's a quiet little mouse. Soon as he's off the phone, he's hammered his keyboard saying all the stuff he didn't want to say on the phone.

For someone who has never been a fan. This is the most humble and enlightened conversation I've ever heard TA have.

Recording the call and then posting it (I am assuming without consent) seems a little on the childish side.

Sounds like the same looser that called in to Pulp pretending to be Grendel.

You're right, it certainly did make him look like a child. He was pretty much speechless and any credibility he had created about being a "say whatever the hell I want" type of person just flew out the window. Tony damn near neutered the guy just by having a polite, casual conversation. Had Brotocross not posted that, I wouldn't have ever had this respect for Tony. He kind of shot himself in the foot by posting it.

Not really? If the blogger is talking shit about your son to all 12 of his junior high school followers, why wouldn't you call him and try to clear the air?

Tony isn't a bad guy, He's just guilty of trying to hard some times.

But fortunately, the Alessis will always have fans like you that are a real turn-off for everyone else in the sport. You're the type of patron a restaurant or bar would turn down because you'd cause them to lose business.

I agree. At least Tony had the balls to call him directly. I like the brotocross site but the brotocross guy sounded like he was trying to be telephone tough guy even though Tony was trying to explain his side and invite him to hang out at the race.

Kill them with kindness. Brotodude is an idiot, if you really feel the way you do about something, don't change your tone when confronted.
Btw, isn't it against the law to tape a phone call without the persons consent? Maybe he did ask as I'm not wasting time listening to the call.

Tony definitely stands behind what he believes in. Whether or not you agree with a person like him and the things he does, its hard not to have respect for him.....especially when he proactively contacts a person that badgers him in public and then treats him in a civil manner like he did.
And you're right about the Brotocross guy, that is a perfect example of a typical keyboard warrior. When he's confronted by a person he has trashed in the past he freezes like a deer in headlights. Good job TA!

Brotocross shouldn't have published that. I agree with some of you saying that Tony looked like the better man in this situation. Tony made me lose a little respect for Brotocross...
