The Richie Ingognito situation

[RedRedJarvisRedwine]

I'm sorry. I still cant come to terms with the notion of "bullying" by grown men, being paid millions to play frickin professional football. I just cant. I'm still waiting for the camera to pop out, "you're on candid camera!!!". I mean seriously, this has to be a joke right?

I agree....honestly, this is a working relationship and I'm assuming some of this was going on in the work place. Where is the professionalism and maturity with these idiots? Where is the leadership to tell someone like Richie to shut the F**ck up or you're off the team or on the bench because you are ruining team moral?

It boggles my mind that 300lb football players playing a professional sport and being paid millions would some how have this get to this level.

What it proves more and more to me is what a complete idiot someone like Richie is and that he never has learned anything since being asked to leave Nebraska.

Ive found that making the other guy bleed from his nose and making his eyes water in front of your friends and colleagues usually gets the job done.

My comments go both ways too, guise. It's directed at Martin as well. Sorry bud, but youre a 300 pound, NFL frickin offensive lineman, and youre complaining about bullying? Wrong. ShawnWatson said it best of anyone.

The fact he is unwilling to ultimately accept any liability says a lot about his character, as well the fact he is lashing out on twitter. Both these guys are idiots.

Bullying in an NFL lockerroom. I still laugh at the thought. What the hell is wrong with our society?

Richie is obviously a total idiot and I don't even want to claim Him as an ex husker. But, why has it only been his name drug through the mud until now?

Today is the first time I have known there were two other players involved.

Why only Ritchie's name in hand news until now?

Anyone can be a bully, and anyone can be bullied. Apparently Jonathan Martin did not have the social skills or mental stability to deal with it properly, nor was there competent leadership or culture in the workplace (which of course is much different in an NFL locker room than a run of the mill office) to recognize what was going on.

This article about the latest report describes how Martin could be bullied, without fully absolving him of his own role in the whole thing, and reinforces Incognito's douchebaggery:

Why is it that until now Ritchie's name was the only one I heard doing the bullying but when the report came out there were three players named?

All the comments below the story on SI all focus on him. People like their villains. I still don't think this stuff in uncommon at all. And I'm not surprised that 2 other guys were involved. Of course they barely get a mention.

Bullying in an NFL lockerroom. I still laugh at the thought. What the hell is wrong with our society?

From what I've gathered from a plethora of former NFL players on the AM radio is it's SOP, really. It's only a story because Incognito is douchier than the average douche and Martin is a bit of a pu&&y. The perfect storm.

Bingo.

And the fact that none of the management for the team is being held accountable is hilarious. The NFL will refuse to acknowledge it's common, exhonnerate themselves and Incognito will be punished to make an example of him.

The first clue was against Notre Dame Penn State in Saturday night game. I'm almost sure Richie was ejected (fighting and trash talk).

Police checking on reported damage to a car belonging to Richie Incognito, the player at the center of the Miami Dolphins' bullying scandal, say Incognito told an officer he did the damage himself.
Sgt. Mark Clark says the former Husker took responsibility when police contacted him Thursday.

He says police first went to Incognito's home Wednesday after being contacted by TMZ Sports and being given a photo of a black Ferrari with several dents in its hood.

Sometimes you just gotta take a bat to your own Ferrari, idk

Richie Incognito currently is undergoing treatment at a facility in Arizona after several weeks of severe mental struggles, multiple sources close to Incognito told NFL Media.
Incognito has been struggling with stress-related issues over the last several months, and it began to intensify in the weeks since the Ted Wells report was released.

Incognito has a history of anger management and depression issues for which he has sought help for years, a time in his life he explained during an interview with NFL.com in 2013. Those close to him believe the stress of the harassment allegations in recent months led to his most recent mental health struggles.

All jokes aside, I hope this guy gets true help. We are talking about an extremely large man with violent tendencies. Something is going to snap in him and the next time it might a person he takes a bat to.
