7:04 am
that nobody did anything wrong? >> yeah very comfortable saying that. >> reporter: brady likes his footballs inflated to 12.5 per square ith the minimum required by the nfl and picks them out several hours before every game. >> i don't want anyone touching balls after that. i don't want anybody rubbing them putting any air in them taking any air out. to me those balls are perfect and that's what i expect when i slow up on the field. >> end zone -- touchdown. >> reporter: brady claims he didn't notice anything different in the second half, when the referees put in balls that were inflated to the proper levels. former quarterback mark brunell was dubious. >> and i don't believe there's an equipment manager in the nfl that would on his own initiative deflate a ball without the starting quarterback's approval. i just -- i just didn't believe what tom brady had to say. >> reporter: before brady's press conference troy aikman told dallas radio station -- >> it's obvious tom brady had something to do with this, or
7:05 am
the ball should have been deflated, that doesn't happen unless the quarterback wants that to happen. >> reporter: hall of famer warren moon, who played quarterback for four nfl teams thinks brady is telling the truth. >> i don't think tom brady had anything to do with it because he played better in the second half than the first half once the balls were inflated. >> reporter: patriots head coach bill belichick, known for his preparation and attention to detail said prior to this week, he didn't even know about the specifics of selecting game balls. >> in my entire coaching career i have never talked to any player staff member about football air pressure. >> reporter: as of yesterday, brady said that the nfl had not contacted him about its investigation, and he says he knows that some people are going to be skepticing of ingal of him. he says, hey, people are entitled to their own opinions. for now his focus is on beating
7:06 am
the seahawks in super bowl xlix. >> lots of opinions. everybody's got one. thank you. >> bill rhoden is with us who wrote i am neither enraged nor surprised by any issues that arise as the nfl keeps its multibillion dollar engine roaring. i am more or less numb. good morning, mr. numb. good to see you. this is the thing, though. a lot of people looked at the news conference with both the coach and the quarterback saying finally we'll get answers and both went i don't know nothing about nothing. where do you go from there? >> there's so much. a couple things. first of all, if you didn't know anything about what they were talking about, this could have been ray rice in terms of the response. we don't know. there's no accountability. this comes from the very top of this organization, all the way to the owner, to the coach to the quarterback. and the other thing is that we keep looking at -- >> you say top, like bob kraft top?
7:07 am
>> the commissioner. the very top, the commissioner, to the owners to the coach. this idea of denibltability. we don't know ray rice drag his -- we don't know. ing in something embarrassing comes out. the fact is, what are they doing now? what goodell is doing now how can we make it look like we're doing something without really doing anything? how can we do something but not really do anything? and it's probably going to be if there's anything done, okay we're going to give you a fine. okay a $1 million fine, and two draft picks, and let it go at that. i mean, as opposed to we're going to suspend -- going to is a spent belichick for the game. you know? some real serious punishment. >> on the subject of at least looking like you're doing something, whether a meaningful conversation or not, how is it possible four days removed from this, the beginning of this controversy, that no one had talked to tom brady about what
7:08 am
happened? what may have happened? >> that gets back to what we're saying. they don't want to know this stuff, just like they didn't want to know ray rice. they didn't want to know this stuff. now the idea that -- you're right. incredible. you're doing an investigation and not talking about -- not talking to the main protagonist? what was ingenious about this not that new england did this but had this not happened what would we be talking about going to the super bowl? about the seattle seahawks that great green bay comeback how great russell wilson is. whether new england deserves it or not now it's almost as if seattle never played that game. now new england comes into the super bowl with this sort of momentum, and not that again, new england planned it but they just keep winning. they just -- you know the bad -- the bad guys never really get punished. this is -- >> but is the it a good momentum when so many think you might have been a cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater? that tone? >> record numbers, there are going to be record numbers at the super bowl and watching the
7:09 am
super bowl. it's not going to make a moral dent at all. >> sports and controversy go hand in hand and sure help ratings. >> absolutely. >> people will be watching. bill rhoden, thank you very much. most of you in the west enjoy dry weather for the weekend. the northeast bracing for what could be its biggest winter storm of the season. dumping an icy mix of rain and snow in parts of the south. texas saw three inches of rain. wind snapped trees and power lines. meteorologist from wbzz shows us what's next. good morning. >> good morning, and good morning to viewers in the west. big story, the east coast storm. heavy rain torrential downpours and thunderstorms in the northeast spreading northward on the northern fringe. advancing into southern new england by the pre-dawn tomorrow. mostly rain along the south coast. snow across the interior. cold air wrapping around the back side of the storm will change to snow even at the coast late afternoon and evening. snowfall amounts, three to six inches here and deeper blues
7:10 am
wack bark into parts of eastern pennsylvania. travel problems tomorrow afternoon and evening. west coast, high surf advisory. may see 10 to 15-foot waves, high winds and watches as well gusts to 65 miles per hour possible tonight and through the course of the day tomorrow as well. >> thank you danielle. this morning the measles outbreak with roots in disneyland continues to spread. it is now grown to at least 75 confirmed cases in six states. at least 54 have been traced back to the resort. many of the sick were not vaccinated. an unvaccinated in the bay area is causing another scare. more than 30 babies are quarantined in their homes this morning, may have been exposed to a child with measles at an oakland hospital. dr. anthony fauci is the director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases and joins us from the national institutes of health in bethesda maryland. dr. fauci, good morning. >> good morning. >> this is so serious, as you know. 15 years ago, measles declared
7:11 am
eliminated and most cases, not vaccinated. how troubling? >> very troubling for a number of reasons. first of all, the measles vaccine is one of the most highly effective vaccines that we have against any virus or any microbe and it is safe. number one. number two, measles is one of the top two most contagious infectious viruses we know of. so you have a highly infeck vis virus and an extraordinarily effective xax vaccine. the idea of not vaccinating your children for what can be a serious risk. measles is not an insignificant disease and there can be serious complications. so it really is a shame that children are not allowed to get vaccinated by their parents nap is really too bad. >> complications like what dr. fauci? and why would people be resistant, since as you said it's so safe and can really do the job its intended to do?
7:12 am
>> well, the complications could be anything from as relatively trivial at diarrhea to middle ear infection, pneumonia and even encephalitis and some deaths. prior to the vaxen asians in this country, we had about 500,000 cases with many serious complications and 500 deaths. now, the idea of not vaccinating a child is the misperception that risk of the vaccine is high, and, therefore, you don't want to expose your child to the risk of the vaccine. that's not good for your child or the community either. it's really unfortunate that that is going on that people have that misperception about vaccines. >> researchers have found that these vaccine deniers live in clusters, and in one particular case in california, where a parent can fill out an exempt form and a doctor can sign off. are we making it too easy? >> you know i don't know if i could comment on that except do say you do see clusters in
7:13 am
community, because people resonate with each other and talk to each other and tend to group together people of the same frame of mind, and reinforce what they know, even though what they're doing is really something that is not based on any scientific evidence at all. in fact, all of the scientific data that we've collected over a long period of time from multiple organizations indicate that the measles vaccine is safe and all of these connections to things like autism and things like that are just not true. >> doctor anthony fauci, thank you very much for your time this morning. two japanese men held by isis face a new threat. militants posted and online warning along way clock and say the countdown has begun. to kill the hostages. the message comes as a deadline for a $200 million ransom passed this morning. the mother of one of the captors made an emotional appeal for his son's life and says he is not an enemy of isis and begs for his

release. the state department isic tag more embassy staff our yemen after the government collapsed. president hadi his prime minister and cabinet all stepped down yesterday. hadi supported the u.s. and its fight against al qaeda in yemen. rebel forces believed to be supported by iran control yemen's capital. there's new concern about the future of the middle east this morning after the death of saudi arabia's king abdullah one of america's closest allies. his successor promising no major policy changes. president obama said in statement the closeness and strength of the partnership between our two countries is part of king abdullah's legacy. may god grant him peace. he was given a state funeral. we look at how his death affects u.s. policy. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, and good morning to viewers in the west. king abdullah was laid to rest in an unmarked desert grave next to past kings. all part of that kingdom's austere version of islam, yet he
7:15 am
will be remembered as an absolute ruler and a cautious reformer. abdullah, the sixth king of saudi arabia died on thursday. state tv announced the monarch's passing. ♪ soon after thousands gathered at one of the kingdom's holy sites to mourn his loss. [ applause ] abdullah spent almost a decade on the throne as ruler of the world's largest oil exporter custodian of the two holiest sites in islam and an extremely close ally of the united states. a relationship strained but soon repaired after the 9/11 terror attacks when it was revealed 15 of the 19 hijackers were saudi citizens. 's in recent years, abdullah criticized president obama's outreach to longtime foe iran and for his mostly hands-off policy in syria. but he did send saudi pilots top fight isis alongside the u.s.
7:16 am
even with the middle eastern turmoil, former diplomat dan serur said expect a smooth transition. >> the family seems to want to ensure stability. they're going to be concerned with first and foremost consolidating the continuity of the state. >> reporter: abdullah's half bro 79-year-old salman assumes the kingdom. his historic outreach to israel and nudging along women's right is what he's known for. allowing them to vote in local elections and opened up some job and educational opportunities. though he did fall short of a promise to allow them to drive. but regardless of who rules saudi arabia it is oil for security that underpins this relationship between the u.s. and saudi arabia. >> margaret brennan, thanks very much. this morning one of nascar's greatest is planning his retirement. four-time cup championship jeff gordon says this season will be his last as a full time driver.

7:18 am
obsession. >> jeff gordon became the poster boy for nascar and as nascar grew jeff gordon fit the image nascar wanted to court. not only good he was popular, polarizing, but also marketable to the entire country. >> reporter: marketable on and off the track. >> jeff gordon. >> reporter: hosting "saturday night live" and serving as a popular pitch man. >> it was all just fun. look. i'm jeff gordon. >> reporter: gordon's announcement comes after one of his best seasons in years. >> jeff gordon may have a flat fire. >> reporter: one that also saw him knocked out of contention for the championship following a collision with driver brad keselowski that led to an all-out scuffle. gordon says a number of factors contributed to his decision including recurring back pain. >> it wasn't just one thing. it was yeah, the back you know, thing played a role. i think that really more just confirmed things for me. >> reporter: still he stopped short of calling it a retirement. >> retirement means sitting in a
7:19 am
rocking chair on the front porch. that's not me. you know? i plan on working. i'm actually going to have to go get a real job now. >> reporter: gordon intends to remain involved with hendrick motorsports of which he is an equity owner, but for now his primary focus, the 2015 season which begins next month. >> we'll be watching. thanks. 7:19. ahead, publicly addressing allegations he had sex

an ad firm convinced them it would make loctite a household name. the man behind super bowl ads for cadillac and coke. >> it is a major investment, a one-time shot, however, as we looked at that we said look at what this company's done for years and years and years of investing money and not getting your return, so why not put yours on the biggest stage with the best work and it's not the risk of doing it. it's the risk of not doing it. >> when you look at a company like etrade or godaddy, those were relatively small companies when they started advertising on the super bowl but now they're giants. >> the '80s call. they want their store back. >> it hasn't worked for everyone. last year an ad for radioshack reinforced the idea that it was.
7:47 am
>> these days the real success of the super bowl ad of course has a lot do with how much is shareded on social media. the most shared one of all time is the volkswagen darth vader add but this year volkswagen and many other automakers are not even buying ad space. >> why? >> cars are out. glue's in. >> i hope it works for them. >> yes. vote for the underdog and buy some glue. >> thank yo
