I have never really understood the bullying/hazing thing. If you are being "harassed", kick the harasser in the nuts and it will end. The problem with bullying is that if you let it continue it will only escalate. 

 

The problem being that it's the NFL and if you physically assault a teammate for something they say you're going to have to deal with serious repercussions. Suspension, lost salary, possible release, and then carry that stigma of a troublemaker with you for the rest of your career. It's not as easy as "well just kick his ass, problem solved."

Oh boy so apparently Richie Incognito's daddy is posting on the dolphins board in Richie's defense and it isn't pretty.

Some people you just have to wonder how it's possible that they are such complete utter douchebags. What happened to them to make them total asshats. Then you meet their parents and it all makes sense.

I'd like to think our o-line is full of upstanding guys that would not in fact be bullies, but pranksters. 

 

they are. oline offseason trips, gross and kalil are pranksters but very good dudes. sounds to me like martin was threatened bullied, had money stolen from him and was called racially charged names.

 

you think gross or kalil would put up with that nonsense? fug no. some team needs to take that kid under their wing and get him straight cause the more i keep reading about this the more i think incognito needs a lifetime ban and prison time.

Among the texts that Jonathan Martin made available to his parents, and then, eventually the Dolphins and the NFL, include those in which Richie Incognito refers to Martin, who is biracial, as a "half-n*****," according to a source who was privy to the communication.
 
There are several instances of threats as well, the sources said, and overall disturbing exchanges, including one in which Incognito refers to defecating in Martin's mouth.
 
Incognito also made reference to tracking down members of Martin's family and harming them in the texts as well, according to a source.

    • I saw that too--and what you said made sense because there is something like that in the rules--said that he is unlikely to get picked up (and I was not suggesting that we do) and Jones wants to go to a winning team.   After getting beaten to death in NY behind a sub par OL, poor WRs, and brutal fan base, I get it. 
    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I’ll admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.
