i'm interested in this because mike sherman's cousin (jim turner) is the OL coach there. turner was was a marine corps officer, and given his personality i can very much see him telling incognito to toughen martin up. something tells me that turner is going to lose his job over this.
Wow what a cluster flock. If you describe the situation to me without team name or level I would say these are high school kids and coaches.
Jeff Ireland should be fired. The Dez Bryant fiasco should have been a warning. Tough guy in the office. What position did he play in college again? You never see winning teams concerned with looking tough. Almost every winning line in the NFL is led by a character guy, not a crazy guy. Incognito.. team captain.
And now, reported by several media outlets, this line at the end of the voicemail: "OK, call me back." Martin reportedly called Incognito back. As I read the transcript I started laughing because I could see one of my friends saying something similar to me. I have told off some of my friends, in jest, using VERY vulgar language. I have also heard reports that Incognito and Martin were friends and hung out a lot. I am withholding judgement until more information comes out.
This is what Lydon Murtha said to SI. Murtha Internview Too many people seem to say that Incognito and Martin hung out all the time and were good friends. I am going to wait a bit longer on this before I make up my mind.
I tend to agree with Mike Florio on this one. PFT - Mike Florio on Murtha Not sure how Murtha would have any of these "insider" insights giving the timing. Murtha's column really says more about him than it does of Martin.
