Don’t fine the players for profanity, please. We don’t need another reason for them to hate doing media. It’s how they talk, it’s how people talk. Let them be real.

You can’t make talking to the media part of their job and then fine them for it. I mean, you can. They do. But you shouldn’t.

The ideas of presenting wholesome images were a lot more salient before the kids you’re trying to protect here were on voice chat on online games.

[Cuban]

100 Percent True.
