Is there any definitive proof that Martin isn't a half ****** piece of **** like Mr. Incgonito claims.
Martin is playing the victim, yet the team supports Incognito. Sounds to me like Martin was not meant for the NFL locker room.
I agree. Most guys, co-workers, friends, NFL teammates etc.. joke around and give each other crap all day long. Rarely is any of this done with malicious intent.
Except neither Martin or Incognito seem like your average NFLer. Martin is more reserved than your normal teammate. Incognito has a long history of problems at every stop he's ever been at.
But he hasn't had an issue in Miami. He was voted captain, which Martin actually voted also. And the media voted Incognito #1 media person last year. And as you are witnessing, basically every Miami Dolphin who has spoken publicly supports Incognito. The more that comes out, the more Incognito is being thrown under the bus for something that's blown completely way out of proportion by the media, driven by BSPN. From what I'm reading so far (and this could all be not the entire truth b/c all this is again media driven): Martin got destroyed by the local media for his poor play, then lost his job, and couldn't handle it. And he's basically using this as a way out. And he never anticipated "tactic" to get this much media attention b/c it's 2 offensive linemen nobody cares for. And I find it EXTREMELY fishy that the day after the Dolphins players publicly defend Incognito, Martin's agent now says he issues with "multiple" players. Martin isn't innocent in this either. His silence more than speaks for itself. I hope at the end of all of this, we should all learn not to just slurp up everything the media reports. ESPN and 98% of the media are becoming like TMZ. It's pathetic.
Incognito is a POS human being. This guy has a done a lot of terrible things both on and off the field. I think what it really reveals is the true character of NFL players. Many of them just aren't good people. Without the NFL they probably would be in jail or something.
There are many, many, many Incognito's in the NFL. Growing up an elite football player in our culture tends to develop selfish, self centered, entitiled men that think they are special and do not play by the same rules everyone else does.
I'm sorry, but are you siding with the guy who apparently laughed at a voicemail with his teammates than later turned in the same one to NFL officials? Are you kidding me? You sound sensitive bro. So you can play a game, running full speed, knocking the crap out of grown men, risking their safety/health? But you can't take a joke. This guy probably screams like a woman at the sight of a mouse. Locker room's are confidential, and I can almost guarantee that this guy won't get picked up in the NFL. Id be pissed at Dolphins management for picking a guy who is so mentally weak. He would probably false start them to death in any situation that involved pressure.
There is obviously a racial component to this and all of the "teammates that support him" are white. Maybe I missed someone but I know 4 guys mentioned in the article are white members of the team.
I'm sorry, but are you siding with the guy who has a history of being a piece of ****? I had an ex-coworker who went to HS with Incognito who told me stories about this guy 10 years ago... bullying, drunk rages, date rape, you name it. Also, see my post on page 2 for quotes from other people who knew him from AZ that corroborates my ex-coworker's stories: All these are from high school! BEFORE he got kicked off TWO college teams (twice from Nebraska lol) and his NFL incidents. But he's a tough guy so it's all good, right?

Holy crap did you see the first comment below that article? Pure gold. Prob written by one of Richie's inbred family members. I'm laughing hysterically! bwaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahaha
That's just awesome. It will be interesting to see what more comes out from here. It seems more and more like the Dolphins lockerroom - while maybe not abnormal - is also not particularly designed for winning. I find it hard to believe anything like this happens in a lockerroom with a strong head coach or top tier leader.
yeah I'm just realizing that... the username 'ldrd1994' was the same one Richie's dad actually used to defend him on finheaven a few days ago. Unfortunately, this commenter probably isn't him. Although I wouldn't put it past him lol.
