he so cute OMG.

Greetings to all,
This is bambam's dad.
I would like to try and bring some understanding to this situation. Our intent was to let people know that people makes mistakes, people can change, and that animal cruelty is wrong no matter who does it. I spoke out because i've been there. GOD pulled me from that. I am a born again man of GOD who follow the ways of Jesus the Christ. I am not perfect, but I strive to be. I spend quality time with my kids because I am making sure that they don't travil the same path that I once traveled. Their is no sin in my actions.Only my father can judge me. Some say that I'm pimping my son. Is it so hard to believe that when you spend quality time with your kids, you will get good results? More parents need to spend quality time with their kids. This message goes to who ever it fits. Stop trying to block our future with my past. You will not prevail. Victory is mines says the LORD. GOD bless all. TOEJOE

Hi, where can I get those bottles of Ellen water that she showed on her show last week and that people were drinking at the Emmy"s? Let me know. thanks, cheryl

CRAZY! thats all.

>>There is a lot of silencing of Ellen's viewers/fans here and it is quite scary for her to be leading such oppression in 2008.

Really?

Are you are the voice of all these 'silenced' viewer/fans?
Because you seem to really think you are.
Or have you just appointed yourself as such.

Have you personally checked with all these 'silenced' viewer/fans as to their opinion?
Well, maybe you should.
After all, we do live in a democracy, last time I checked, that is.

Jami,
Oppression is a big word... you better know what it means before you use it... and in this instance, you're using it incorrectly. Since this program's inception, it's done nothing but bring joy to people. There is quite obviously is no "oppressive" agenda.

Debra,
Get a clue.

Ellen,
Thanks to Tivo, I caught the show on Friday with Bam-Bam and I applaud his Father for doing the right thing and being actively involved in his son's young life. It seems like a chance for him to get a second chance and his son is graciously sharing it. A second chance, I might add that very few people recieve.

One comment: You refered to Dog Fighting as a "sport" in your commentary. I disagree. It's abuse... cruel and simple. Abuse of animals.

I'm going to reserve the term "sport" for Soccer, Tennis, Volleyball, Swimming and other similar events that have Olympic-like qualities.

Thanks for your consistent uplifting messages.
Jen

Dear Ellen, I felt so disappointed and, I believe, shocked at the way you scheduled the last portion of your show. Betty White deserves nothing but the most respect and admiration as does Tom Sullivan. You led into commercial featuring the 7 yr old boxing sensation and his dad with the promise to share his dad's story. You cannot imagine the disgust and horror I felt that you would combine a renowned animal lover, a seven yr old boy, and dog fighting. I understand this is a terrible, horrible fact of life but I would have chosen to change the channel rather that listen to his story...especially following the conversation you and Betty White had about loving animals so much. I believe the subject could have been addressed at another time with proper awareness to your viewers. It was just wrong and very upsetting. Remember how cute the bear sitting at the picnic table was at the beginning of your show. Why did you take your audience down the chosen path?

MM...YOU MUST HAVE GOTTEN BEAT DOWN WHEN YOU WHERE COMING UP!!! (WITH THAT ATTITUDE I COULD SEE WHY) SO SHUT YOUR PIE HOLE!!! AND CRAWL BACK UNDER YOUR COZY ROCK... BAM BAM HAS A CONTROLLED ANS FOCUSED TALENT....THE KID HAS STYLE..ELLEN, I LOVE YOU

wow! that squert can box!

Hi Ellen. boa tarde. Meu nome é Zilma e moro em Natal- RN. Sou tua maior fã aquí no Brazil Sempre que posso estou em casa para te assistir. Seu programa passou a ser transmitido aqui dia 23 de junho e desde essa data minhas tardes passaram a ser diferentes. Voce é maravilhosa. Voce é unica. Parabéns pelo seu casamento com a Portia. Ela é uma mulher de sorte.Voce é nota 1000. Um beijo. Zilma

where is his myspace page I am a fan!

he's cute...he's fast....

Ellen's show is the best talk show around...
Lasting SMILES are produced everytime...

Amazing kid. Boxing is something that his family is into heavily and has been for years. I think he will be a force to be reckoned with as he gets older. I commend his father for turning his life around and for being an active part of his son' life. Keep your head up and keep doing what you are doing. Thanks Ellen for having lil Bam Bam on your show. ELLEN ROCKS!!!!

All the people focusing on the dad's past need to get a grip. The man can't when for losing. Everybody needs to think about the good thing he is doing for his son by getting him into something other than the streets.The saying is you live and you learn and he learned enough to take another path for himself and his son. So I say again get a grip and leave him and Ellen alone because they are both doing something with their lives.

Hey MM: Wow you seem very upset on who Ellen has on her show. Why is that? If you are that upset with her WHY are you watching her show much?!!!!! you seem to know everything about iggy and the cover girl. So maybe you should keep your opinions to yourself if you can't find any good things to say. If you don't like her don't watch her. Millions of people love her. You're just a little person compared to the rest of us and all her friends and fans that adore her for what she has done and continues to do for the world. WE LOVE YOU ELLEN!!!!! YOU KEEP ON KEEPING ON, GIRL. KEEP ON DANCING!!!!!!!!

This boy is heka fast.hes gonna be a monster when he grows up.he can beet up an 14 year old

this is to mm.... some people make mistakes in life, regardless of what they are they shouldn't be judged. who are you to judge anyone. for you to try and put ellen down for putting this lil boy on air is ludicrous. that man may have done something that you or others don't approve of, but he is showing his son a better way in life by staying busy with sitive things. as of the ellen show I like the fact that not so perfect people can be seen and heard. that just shows that no one is perfect not even you. ellen keep up the good work, and if you ever want someone else who isn't perfect feel free to contact me!!!

I can't beleive some of you are really tripping that hard on Ellen. The show was about Bam Bam, not his father. His father's past is not a big deal anymore. If some of you listened, he was saying the dog fighting is something he grew up around & thats how he got into it. And that part of his life is in the PAST! "Pimping his son" please, it's called making sure your kid is into something positive & keeping him from ending up in the streets as he gets older. And he's on that right path.

Sharon......you're obviously not mature enough to grasp Ellen's reasons for having the boy's father speak out. There's a message there and the rest of us got it! Are you afraid someone might turn you in?!!!
