Interesting read for sure. Richie puts a spin on it in his favor. There will be more to come out of this for sure.

I still don't understand the threatening the family thing. That's way over the line to me.

My friends and I discussed this, and as long as you don't know said mama or sister, there is some playing field there. If you personally know the mom or sister, out of bounds. Wives or girlfriends are always way out of bounds. Ex's are up for grabs.

But my friends and I have never ever went that hard core, with the vulgar sister thing or the N-bomb thing. They keep saying it's "the culture in the locker room nobody wants to see."

Appearantly Martin didn't want to see it either.

So I don't know.

Jay Glazer, "you state Martin sent you threatening messages too, can you explain?"

Richie Incognito, "sure, I sent a text stating I wanted to rape and then kill his entire family, including 103 year old grandmother and then @#$% down his throat as he watched the video I made of it. He responded that if I ever talked to him again, he would kill me. As you can see, this guy has anger issues and could not take a joke".

He cited one text in particular, in which he says Martin wrote, "I will murder your whole ****ing family." Incognito went on to explain that he knew Martin's message wasn't a real threat, because it was "coming from a brother." Or maybe he knew it wasn't a threat because the message was delivered as a silly internet meme that included a dog?

The image at the top of the page is what Martin's lawyer says his client actually sent to Richie Incognito.

Pretty funny re-visting this thread now. Oh poor, poor, Jonathan Martin that big bad homopbobic racist bully was hurting your feelings And extorting you.

I was one of the few who tried to wait for both sides of the story, ESPN murdered Incognito's rep in about 24 hours. His rep was never stellar in that department but my coomon sense refused to let me believe that it was as bad as Martin and ESPN made it sound, the whole team would've punked Ritchie.

This is one big mess and could be the league suspended the wrong guy.Incognito certainly no angel but Martin seems like he needs to grow up.

Maybe the league draws up some tough hazing rules and orders teams to enforce them or face major fines.This is a mess that could end 2 careers.Incognito and Martin.

He's getting treatment here in town for his mental issues. Hope he gets the help he needs.
