In my experience, he’s not the kind of person who would extort someone for $15,000. The notion that Martin was forced to pay for a trip he didn’t attend has been misrepresented.
He's not the kind of guy that would extort someone for a 15,000 trip to Vegas, but he did extort you for a $9,600 dinner. Okay.

I don't really blame Incognito for this, as I think he's an easy scapegoat. The fact is that this is a locker room culture of men that is built around a violent sport. Shit like this is going to happen unless the powers that be actively fight it and establish a culture where it's not allowed. They're (the coaches) to blame. Incognito is just an easy target because he's a giant douchebag.
