Athletes can be creatures of habits and that includes doing things that don’t involve their profession.

Instagram model Raquel Reitx, who has more than 500,000 followers on the popular social site, recently revealed that every athlete that jumps into her direct messages all do the same exact thing.

They all just send the fire emoji.

“I reckon that in the dressing rooms, they have openly agreed how to do it. They all do the same thing,” Raquel said during a recent podcast appearance, per Outkick. “They send a ‘fire’ emoji, but they don’t react to the story.”

If the emoji does not garner a response from her, the athletes all react by deleting what they posted.

“They send it. If you don’t answer them, they delete it. Always the same.”

Instagram models have been very forthcoming about athletes jumping in their messages, especially if they find out they are in a relationship or married. Some of them won’t care and will still deal with the athlete.

The most scandalous situation has easily been Chicago White Sox star Tim Anderson who had a baby by his mistress but his wife refuses to leave even though the side-chick continues to expose the things he does for her.

New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson knows all about being exposed as adult star Moriah Mills spent weeks revealing how they have been having sex only for him to get his girlfriend pregnant as if the two of them never had an ongoing sexual relationship.

Basically, fellas need to stay out of DMs and meet women the old-fashioned way to limit the many ways of being exposed.

Eagles Fan Ryan Caldwell Finally Breaks His Silence After Getting Fired From Job & Permanently Banned From Lincoln Financial Field For Verbally Abusing Female Packers Fan

Ryan Caldwell, the Philadelphia Eagles fan who went viral for cruelly verbally abusing Green Bay Packers fan Ally Keller during Sunday’s Wild Card Round game, has broken his silence on the incident.

Keller attended the game at Lincoln Financial Field with her fiancé, Alexander Basara. The latter shared a viral video of Ryan Caldwell verbally abusing Keller and using derogatory language towards her.

The Eagles have since announced that Caldwell has received a lifetime ban from home games. He was also fired from his job as a project manager at the BCT Partners consulting firm.

Speaking to Jenna Lemoncelli of the New York Post, Ryan Caldwell expressed remorse for his actions and apologized to Keller. He also claims that the video shared by Basara doesn’t provide the entire “context” of their verbal altercation:

“While attending an NFL game last Sunday to support my beloved Philadelphia Eagles, an incident occurred that I deeply regret. What began as banter with two Packers fans sitting near me escalated to something more serious, and I said things that were unacceptable. In the heat of the moment, I chose unforgiving words to address one of the fans, Ms. Ally Keller.

I want to sincerely apologize to Ms. Keller for those words, and to my wife, family, and friends, my former employer and colleagues, Packer fans, Eagle fans, the Philadelphia Eagles, the City of Philadelphia, and all who were offended.

That said, there are two sides to every story. The video clip circulating online does not reflect the full context of what transpired, and my actions were not without provocation. I will live with this experience, and I am certainly paying a personal price. For those who don’t know me, this incident does not reflect my values or the respect I have for others and is not indicative of the person I am.”
