It isn't acceptable, but it sounds like the guy didn't have the mental and physical toughness to deal with playing in the nfl. If he's intimidated by neanderthals in his own locker room how's he supposed to deal with Terrell Suggs on Sunday?

In read each of the 144 pages in the report.
Incognito, Jerry, and Pouncey are certainly not absolved of any wrong doing as the released text messages might make us believe. |

But, I do find it a little comical that a guy who pushed people around as his profession didn't chose to push back more forcefully. There are always going to be assholes. How you deal with them is up to you.

Not to mention it was Incognito with Jerry and Pouncey backing him up.

No disagreement, but I just wonder now if Martin wishes he had fought back, even if it meant an ass kicking, instead of having the mess that exists now.

He actually talks about that in the report and anguishes over it. Texts between his mom and him talk about how he's been like that since an early age. That in middle school, even though he was bigger than everyone else, he'd let people **** with him and just smile and take it because he was more concerned with them liking him. He was afraid if he fought back and struck out at them, they wouldn't like him. It's a pretty common issue with big guys who are usually clumsy and awkward at a young age, as such they get conditioned in a certain way to be big babies.

The first place I recall seeing it was in the comments section of a news site, but I can't recall which one.

I wouldn't say RI is a victim, he just wasn't attuned to JM's sensitivity. Probably Q, but we have a smaller scale version of this dynamic in my immediate family. We all remember every stupid thing the others have said or done and we get on jags of breaking balls over it until we can't see from tears rolling laughing. Grandma sees this from the outside and gets very irritated about how mean we are to each other.

All of this falls on the Dolphins front office and coaching staff.
When Zack Greinke returned to the majors after taking a year off to deal to seek help for his struggles with social anxiety, no one on Chiefsplanet was calling Zack a pu**y, to the contrary, they were calling both he and the Royals FO heroic for the way they came together to find a solution for Zack's struggle. This is all on the Dolphins coaches for tolerating and encouraging Incognito's behavior. All of you calling a Martin a pu**y should be ashamed of yourselves, the act victim blaming is absolutely inexcusable and runs rampant through our society. If he were your child, you would have sided with Martin each and every time. Kudos to Jonathan for seeking help before it was too late. |
