BOSTON (CBS) — Football fans were a little baffled when they logged on to the Internet on Wednesday morning and saw 71-year-old Patriots owner Robert Kraft cursing in an audition video for his young female friend.
Kraft was quick to explain himself on Wednesday afternoon, though, issuing a statement to ProFootballTalk.
“I tried to help Ricki [Noel Lander] prepare an audition tape for an upcoming Vince Vaughn/Owen Wilson comedy by reading Wilson’s lines,” Kraft said. “I never intended that it would be made public and I regret that it has. I think we can all agree that Owen Wilson has nothing to worry about. I am going to stick to my day job.”
The video was mostly humorous but was a bit shocking, nevertheless. The lines which Kraft reads are vulgar and include some mature subject matter.
The video, originally made public by Barstool Sports, has been taken off YouTube due to a copyright claim by Fox.
...speaking of the Patriots and racy material, remember when Victor Kiam (”the first blade shaves close. The second even closer.”) joked about female Herald reporter in the Pats’ locker room, “seeing Patriot missiles up close”?

As a diehard Pats fan, Bob Kraft is turning into an embarrassment with his young blonde “friend.”
All last year, following the death of his “sweetheart” Myra, we were spoon fed (daily) MHK (Myra’s initials) as a marketing ploy.
It’s sickening.
Was that around the same time that some rather large lineman for the then Patri-rots showed his "stuff" to the female reporter in the locker room and caused a major stir? Forget most of the details, except that the Pats had won their season opener when the incident happened, and they went 0-15 the rest of the year.
“Bob Kraft is turning into an embarrassment with his young blonde “friend.”
There is nothing so attractive to many women as a man with a limited shelf life and a big bank account.
They were singing “You Can’t Touch This” by MC Hammer. Really!
“It’s sickening.”
Yep. I thought he was drunk as a skunk in the video. No excuse for his total behavior, though. That thing he did at the end...he’ll never live that down. This will be his Tiger moment.
When queried about the life or death possibilities inherent in the relationship, Bob said,
What would be hilarious is if Kraft marries this bimbo, then when he croaks she becomes the owner of the team, ala Georgia Frontiere.
