Man it would be great to be a fly on the wall inside a locker room,be great to know a player on the team and have an inside source.I guess the point I'm getting at is I wonder how RG3 is liked by his teammates? Hearing smoot talk about how he doesnt like how RG3 interacts with the team as opposed to Wilson and Luck makes me wonder if Griffins teammates actually like him or do they think he's a diva,brat,selfish or whatever you want to call him

You definitely see RG have rapport with guys like Trent, Peter Boy, Young and Alfmo. But even if he's seen as a diva with all the commercials and promos, kid is one tough SOB and that should garner instant respect from the whole roster IMO. That play where he launched himself for the 1st down last Sunday was brilliant.

I'm not defending Incognito specifically because he's a bigot, meat headed shit sack by all accounts, but I kind of see the basics of the situation in Miami like bounty gate in New Orleans. Nothing new in the nfl and let the team go where it may. If the culture is bad it'll be a short regime. Sick of all the damn investigations and drama.

A guy who commented on the Incognito incident summed up my feelings quite nicely:

"Those of you who think a grown man can't be bullied are ridiculous. Martin grew up in a lifestyle that didn't require him to become a hard nosed angry man. Its not in him to fight, he has other options. Football is what he enjoys. He has a degree from Stanford. He doesn't HAVE to play football and he doesn't have to risk jail time over someone. He handled it like he was raised, walk away and let the system fix it. Some of you need to stop beating your chests and realize not every man is made of STONE."

^^^^^^
Incognito deserves a good old fashioned Ass Kickin'....BUT as the author points out, he should not have to. The racial stuff is way over the line and maybe he deserves 2 Ass Beatin's. I'd have no problem with it.....
Miami....organization is a mess.
AND now they have lost 40% of their already porous line....Wow

Y! SPORTS

The racial aspect of the saga took a fairly ridiculous turn when the Miami Herald posted a story titled "Richie Incognito considered black in Dolphins locker room." In it, three black Dolphins players are quoted as saying they don't think Incognito is a racist, and the Herald's Armando Salguero wrote this passage:


Well, I've spoken to multiple people today about this and the explanation from all of them is that in the Dolphins locker room, Richie Incognito was considered a black guy. He was accepted by the black players. He was an honorary black man.

And Jonathan Martin, who is bi-racial, was not. Indeed, Martin was considered less black than Incognito.

"Richie is honarary," one player who left the Dolphins this offseason told me today. "I don't expect you to understand because you're not black. But being a black guy, being a brother is more than just about skin color. It's about how you carry yourself. How you play. Where you come from. What you've experienced. A lot of things."

If you didn't think the Incognito story could get much weirder, it just did.

I think the part in the voice mail where Incognito tells martin he's going $hit in his mouth was taken waaay out of context. nothing to see here move along please

That entire Dolphins locker room is borderline retarded.

It really doesn't matter if Incognito is black or white or honorary black or if he used the N word or whatever.

I'm pretty sure he's just an asshole.

OMG, I just noticed that Miami at Tampa Bay is the Monday Night Game! That game is going to be unwatchable on so many levels.

I can't even imagine what Bob Costas's typically sanctimonious segment will be like - but I can surely guess what the topic will be.

I am definitely going to skip what will surely be a polished turd of a viewing experience for many other people.

It will be so bad it's good, but what does Costas have to do with it

Looks like he confused Monday night with Sunday night. No biggie.
