Deadspin hand chooses comments/writes their own for added comedy. That is clearly one of them and it is utter gold. Deadspin is just the best.
The Colts have been all over him. They are smart. They are going to get the Dolphins second round draft pick for nothing.
How can he enter any locker room again? Who would wanna mess with the guy? And his opponents are going to destroy him verbally if he ever steps on the field again.
[Editor's note: On Thursday night, lawyer David Cornwell issued a statement on behalf of Dolphins tackle Jonathan Martin. The full text of the statement appears below.] Jonathan Martin’s toughness is not at issue. Jonathan has started every game with the Miami Dolphins since he was drafted in 2012. At Stanford, he was the anchor for Jim Harbaugh’s “smash mouth” brand of football and he protected Andrew Luck’s blind side. The issue is Jonathan’s treatment by his teammates. Jonathan endured harassment that went far beyond the traditional locker room hazing. For the entire season-and-a-half that he was with the Dolphins, he attempted to befriend the same teammates who subjected him to the abuse with the hope that doing so would end the harassment. This is a textbook reaction of victims of bullying. Despite these efforts, the taunting continued. Beyond the well-publicized voice mail with its racial epithet, Jonathan endured a malicious physical attack on him by a teammate, and daily vulgar comments such as the quote at the bottom. These facts are not in dispute. Eventually, Jonathan made a difficult choice. Despite his love for football, Jonathan left the Dolphins. Jonathan looks forward to getting back to playing football. In the meantime, he will cooperate fully with the NFL investigation. Quote from teammate: “We are going to run train on your sister. . . . She loves me. I am going to f–k her without a condom and c– in her c—.”
A lawsuit is coming. So obvious now. So he endured it for a season and a half, but can't endure it once he lost his starting job?
Brah, this is how good bros talk to each other. It's completely normal. You mean you and your brosefs don't say stuff like this to each other?
Meanwhile, NFL Media columnist Michael Silver has been told Incognito's camp has evidence that suggests a "back-and-forth communication between the two men that would paint them more as friends who said things to each other." Silver called the exchange "mutually explosive." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap20...-martinrichie-incognito-evidence-still-coming Let's hear the other side of the text/conversation. Pulling individual quotes out can be out of context, although the quote is distasteful.
David Cornwell is his lawyer? Isn't that the same lawyer for A-rod and Ryan Braun ? A lawsuit is coming for sure.
