It's SPECTACULARLY clear that that isn't what happened.

Eh. Some people just don't like fighting. Some people just like to be the quiet guy that comes to work and does their job. Can't fault a guy for that.

I agree. It just seems that particular word coming from a white guy elicits a particular Pavlovian response in a majority of black people.

Seems like Incognito is taking 100% of the fall for this. Didn't the triggering incident involve multiple people acting like assholes? Incognito may be their king, but I haven't even heard any other names.

idk about the other players but he is the one with the longest rap sheet so it makes sense it would get pinned on him.

Wow. I didn't know about the Oregon thing.

Good question.

I think oftentimes a toxic employee will build a gang around them because everyone is afraid of them. It could be the case here where a bunch of followers joined the pack because otherwise they'd be targeted.

The fact that Pouncey is there makes me wonder, though. It's interesting that Incognito's dad went after Pouncey in his BB post, because I would have assumed that Pouncey would be one of the gang given his relationship with Aaron Hernandez. It's hard to imagine that he's not an active part of the problem, too. Maybe Tannehill intervened and said, "Hey, I've lost my right tackle and my right guard. Can we overlook the center before I end up being gelatinized?"

I thought I heard Pouncey's name in there too

I don't get it. Did the source laugh or did he actually say "L-O-L"?

Probably asked and answered via text.

Pouncey is also biracial. The Incognitos don't seem to be very fond of that.

Your sarcasm meter. Check it.

Oh, good point. I bet Incognito stopped bullying him, though, after he shot a couple of Incognito's friends in the face.

gonna be interesting to hear the details as this soap opera plays out

This is definitely true, and almost certainly the case. But that doesn't get them off the hook. Somebody should have been the whistle blower on this garbage.

What a mess this is. I feel kind of bad for the coaches who have egg on their face. Yeah, they are responsible for not being connected to what's going on, but on the other hand they are pulling their hair out trying to build game plans and get the team ready to play each week. Sure, some hazing going on and they knew it, I'm sure. But who even thinks to wonder if it's gotten to this level? I'm sure coaches for other teams will have it more top of mind now.
