Moved by the experience, I send a note to Scorsese's assistant to thank him for his tireless efforts to inspire others to watch these classics, and the context he often gives for those films. It was like having him as a free professor, I wished that he could intro EVERY film...
@esteep there is one team governor at govs meeting today uniquely qualified to know what players sacrifice if cancel season & how important competing is to them. Respect if cancel. Imho sports unite & playing adds attention, amplifies players/teams voices & actions for justice
@CP3 Amazing show of unity & solidarity. Ideas to consider:
1. Playing helped add attention that makes this stand so forceful.
2. Team govs are players’ teammates in this
3. Add messages: on headbands, wristbands
4. Articles written by players; message ads on air pre/mid/postgame

@amblin Just wanted to say to longtime Amblin collaborator & acting/directing legend: an early happy 90th birthday (May 31) to Clint! Considering the quality of work Clint has made as a director the past 10-15 years, your boss is young :) Hope to collaborate w/you guys one day...
@ScottiePippen I admire you even more after Last Dance but if you want to add context: it was sensitive to fathers deaths (MJ’s/yours/Kerr’s),you can add important detail: 3weeks after your father’s death was migraine, you were grieving. MJ only had say on himself in doc, not you
@horacegrant54 This is a misunderstanding. Sam Smith wrote in 2012 intro to his book that you were a source but not main source. MJ repeated that but didnt say you were a snitch (a big difference). Sam’s book was hurtful to MJ but he forgave you, why MJ helped w/your golf charity
