Miami's Martin leaves team after 'emotional breakdown'
Jonathan Martin leaves Dolphins after 'breakdown'

By Dan Hanzus
Around the League Writer
Published: Oct. 30, 2013 at 06:39 p.m. Updated: Oct. 30, 2013 at 07:00 p.m.
An unusual situation is unfolding in Miami, where Dolphins right tackle Jonathan Martin has left the team after suffering an "emotional breakdown" this week.

NFL Media's Jeff Darlington reported Wednesday that Martin is currently seeking help with his family after an incident at the team's cafeteria, according to team sources.

Martin is listed on the team's injury report with an illness, and is doubtful to play Thursday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Fox NFL insider Jay Glazer reported that Martin was the victim of a prank at the cafeteria, becoming enraged enough to "smash his food tray on the ground."

The second-year pro has not been with the team since that time. Darlington reports that Martin immediately sought treatment at a local hospital. He has since left the hospital and is now spending time with his family, according to team sources.

Martin opened the season as the Dolphins' replacement for Jake Long at left tackle. He was moved to right tackle when the team acquired Bryant McKinnie via trade last week. Tyson Clabo is expected to start in Martin's place on Thursday.

The racism angle doesn't seem to fly *IF* players like Wallace and Pouncey are in cahoots with or supportive of Incognito.
It's purely speculation, but my guess is that he was the easiest target and/or the one least likely to fight back. That seems to be the way bullying works.

If I asked what kind of car Martin drives to the stadium each day, would I have been met with multiple posters asking why it matters? Why bring it up? I doubt it.

The answer to your question (which you would already know if you bothered to read it the handful of other times I've posted it) is yes it matters. It matters because it's a potential motive that would help explain what was going on in that lockerroom. It would have nothing to do with justification, as far as I'm concerned, but it might help explain why it happened.
Why would the kind of car matter?

If, when you ask if it matters, you mean do I think that would justify mistreatment, the answer is no.
What makes you think he's gay? Because you can't find anything about a gf/wife?

I can't remember who wrote it, but I read a book or a magazine article at one point about Oklahoma's football teams in the 1950s. I have no idea why anyone would have willingly joined that team. Civilization completely broke down on those teams.

The one thing that I particularly remember, other than the Oklahoma drill, was that they would do some sort of race on their hands and knees. Everyone would put a grape in their rectum to start the race, and whoever came in last had to eat the grapes. I think I would have transferred to Northwestern before the instructions were even out of the coach's mouth on that one.

It was long thought that he did, but it turned out to be Marv Albert in drag.

According to Adam Schefter, Martin was not the only person in the organization who felt threatened by Incognito. He's just the one who did something about it.

Yeah, he didn't really get into details... if the attacks on Martin were worse than other employees, or what those issues were.

He clearly said though that other people within the Dolphins were not comfortable with Incognito's behavior. He was just on ESPN talking about it a little bit ago.

I've never understood the public's fascination with who their sports heroes are ****ing.
People are weird. That's all I can really come up with.

That's disappointing to me, considering there are countless fantastic human beings in all levels of football.
