Martin ScorseseAnybody who is a professional athlete who has a social media account on any of the networks, when they sign up for that account, they subject themselves to all of the criticisms and all of the praises that may or may not be out there.

They never encounter, they never face the consequences of their own laws. They don't face the consequences of their own directives or actions.
