The Miami Dolphins situation involving Richie Incognito went from bad to worse on Monday and it should only keep going that way as more details come out, as the lineman was suspended from the team for bullying and abuse related to Jonathan Martin and new reports have him calling Martin a half "n-word" and more on a voicemail message.
According to ESPN.com, CBS Sports and Adam Schefter have seen transcripts of voice mail messages and text messages and the words that Incognito reportedly used against Martin included: half n----- piece of s--- as well as curse words and a threat to his life, saying, "I'll kill you" and the report says that the voice mail message was left in April of 2013, as Martin was entering his second summer as a player with the Dolphins and now the team and the NFL has heard the message.
Even if Incognito says this was a joke or hazing, this clearly went above and beyond and seeing some of the pictures that Incognito has on social media, he sounds like a racist conservative who hates taxes, and apparently rookies based on a picture he took of a sign that said Richie Incognito hates taxes and rookie. So he clearly is a very good teammate. Incognito clearly is a jerk and this now sheds light on the little seen life in an NFL locker room and behavior like this is too far from just joking, especially for someone with emotional issues and as we have seen from Royce White, professional athletes are not always embraced for their emotional and mental issues.
Sources have said to ESPN.com that Incognito and his behavior were not isolated incidents and that there has been issues before with Martin and now Incognito comes into question even with him being part of the leadership council on the Dolphins, which was obviously a ridiculous mistake. Incognito is a pathetic person and deserved to be punished for the way he has treated Martin and while he tried to deny that he did any of this, all this reporting would not come out, as no one is trying to slander Incognito with false accusations, only the truth.
The report says that texts from Incognito also had "derogatory terms referring to the female anatomy and sexual orientation" and the "I'll kill you" statement is always a nice touch for someone you are supposed to share a locker room with. No wonder why Martin felt worried about certain consequences for not paying for a Vegas trip and other issues.
From the message from ESPN:
"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."
