nfl racism “half n-----”

Richie Incognito sent Dolphins teammate Jonathan Martin threatening, racially-charged texts and voicemails: report


According to Fox Sports, the team and the NFLPA have been informed that Incognito, once known as one of the league's dirtiest players, sent the menacing messages, which will be shared with the league for its investigation.

Practical jokes and pranks are part of the culture in NFL locker rooms, but the Dolphins appear to be dealing with something a lot more serious after suspending guard Richie Incognito for conduct detrimental to the team for his alleged treatment of teammate Jonathan Martin.

It was being portrayed as a case of Incognito bullying Martin, a second-year offensive tackle, but it went to a different level Monday when Fox Sports reported that the Dolphins and the NFL Player Association were informed that Incognito sent Martin, who is biracial, text messages and left him voicemails that are threatening and racially charged.

According to CBS Sports, Incognito referred to Martin as a “half n-----,” made references to harming Martin’s family and defecating in Martin’s mouth.

Clearly, this takes the situation to an even more serious level.

The Dolphins said in a statement Sunday night that "we reached out to the NFL to conduct an objective and thorough review. We will continue to work with the league on this matter."

Last week, Martin apparently was put off when he sat down at the lunch table and the other players got up to leave. Then it was reported that Incognito had previously pressured Martin into contributing $15,000 for a player trip to Las Vegas that Martin elected not to attend.

Martin left the team last week after the lunch room incident. In a series of statements on Sunday morning, the Dolphins said, "The notion of bullying is based on speculation and has not been presented to us as a concern from Jonathan or anyone else internally." They also said. "Our primary concern for Jonathan is his overall health and well-being."

About eight hours later, the team said, "We received notification today from Jonathan's representation about allegations of player misconduct. We are taking these allegations very seriously and plan to review the matter further."

They added, "As an organization, we are committed to a culture of team-first accountability and respect for one another."

Then at 11:37 on Sunday night then sent out a statement, "The Miami Dolphins have suspended Richie Incognito for conduct detrimental to the team. We believe in maintaining a culture of respect for one another and as a result we believe this decision is in the best interest of the organization at this time."

It's uncertain if and when Martin will return to the Dolphins. There is no indication about Incognito's future with the team. Last week the Dolphins listed Martin as being out of the game against the Bengals with an illness.

There have also been reports that young players on the Dolphins have been pressure to pay a lot of money to finance the social outings of veteran players.

Incognito, 30, was born in Englewood, N.J., and went to high school in Arizona. He was drafted by the Rams in 2005, joined the Bills for one season in 2009 and has been with the Dolphins since 2010. When he was with the Rams, he was known as one of the dirtiest players in the league. He was voted this year by teammates to be a member of the Dolphins player council.

Interesting....last week local South Florida news said that Martin went AWOL after a team lunch and nobody knew why he left. Then the reports were that Martin was on leave from the team, reporters were speculating how odd it was to put a player on leave after he went AWOL. I didn't watch any news all weekend, and earlier this afternoon I happened to see a one of the sports channels reporting that Incognito had taken a leave from the team because of hazing against Martin. The news item focused more on what's the big deal, hazing happens all the time, why is this one so different. And so different to the point that Incognito would leave the team.

I'll have to watch local news later to catch up on what Dolphin management has to say.

Incognito was suspended indefinitely by the Dolphins on Sunday night for conduct detrimental to the team.

Meanwhile, the Miami Herald reported Monday that the team plans to cut ties with him.

"He's done," a team source told the newspaper. "There are procedures in place, and everyone wants to be fair. The NFL is involved. But from a club perspective he'll never play another game here."

Bullying accusations against Richie Incognito don't surprise Giants kicker Josh Brown

Brown, who played alongside Incognito with the Rams and at the University of Nebraska, said that the Dolphins' guard is a 'tortured soul' with personal demons. 'He's had these issues for quite a while and it's sad.'



The firestorm surrounding Dolphins lineman Richie Incognito came as no surprise to Giants kicker Josh Brown.

Brown, who played with Incognito at the University of Nebraska and later with the St. Louis Rams, recalls the offensive lineman as “somebody who’s really got some demons that are out of the building.”

Incognito was suspended by the Dolphins late Sunday night for alleged mistreatment of second-year OL Jonathan Martin, a situation that has Miami in a state of turmoil and Incognito’s NFL career in serious jeopardy.

“He’s done,” a ranking club source told The Miami Herald Monday. “There are procedures in place and everyone wants to be fair. The NFL is involved. But from a club perspective he’ll never play another game here.”

Brown said he knows the 30-year-old Incognito very well.

“None of it shocks me,” the kicker said. “I don’t know any details obviously. The league hasn’t released anything. But Richie seems to be a person with a tortured soul. He’s had these issues for quite awhile, and it’s sad.”

On Monday, several media outlets leaked the content of text messages and voicemails sent from Incognito to Martin that the NFL and Dolphins had already reviewed.

According to CBS Sports, Incognito referred to the biracial Martin as a “half-n------,” and he viciously threatened the 24-year-old, saying he’d hunt down members of his family.

ESPN reported that Incognito left a voice message to Martin in April of this year saying, “Hey, wassup, you half-n----- piece of s---. I saw you on Twitter, you been training 10 weeks. (I want to) s--- in your f---ing mouth. (I’m going to) slap your f---ing mouth. (I’m going to) slap your real mother across the face (laughter). F--- you, you’re still a rookie. I’ll kill you.”

ESPN also reported Sunday that Incognito coerced Martin into giving him $15,000 to finance a players’ trip to Vegas that Martin didn’t even attend. And on Aug. 19, he wished Martin a happy birthday in twisted fashion.

“????HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the biggest weirdo of ALL TIME @J_Martin71,” Incognito wrote on Twitter.

Martin remained absent from Dolphins practice Monday one week after he suddenly left the team due to what it called emotional issues.

Before being suspended, Incognito said he wanted his name cleared and tweeted, “Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth,” quoting Buddha.

Incognito was voted to the Dolphins’ six-player leadership counsel this season, something that head coach Joe Philbin seemed to stand by Monday.

“The leadership counsel is selected by our players,” Philbin said. “He was selected by his teammates.”

The NFLPA and the Dolphins are looking into the matter, and the NFL said it was doing a “thorough review” of the issue. Philbin said he would do whatever was “necessary” to clean up the locker room if issues were revealed.

According to an ESPN story from several years ago, Incognito was often bullied as a youngster growing up in Englewood, N.J.

He was reportedly called a “fat-ass” and a “lard-ass” and a “whale,” a pattern that continued even after he moved to Arizona in 1995.

Brown said Incognito had “a lot of problems” at Nebraska, although Brown never termed any of the lineman’s actions “abusive.”

Brown didn’t recall any serious issues for Incognito with the Rams, but the lineman was released by St. Louis late in the 2009 season after having an altercation with then-coach Steve Spagnuolo, the Giants’ ex-defensive coordinator.

“It seems like this is something that has been haunting him for more than a decade,” Brown said. “He was always a very emotional player, very reactive. Obviously, I have a lot of assumptions in my head about what was going on (in Miami), and I’m probably going to be right.”
