          From my understanding they never really did get a reaction out of him. He tried his best to laugh it off which is something I used to do except doing that does not stop people from doing what they're doing. People always say if they don't get a reaction out of you they'll stop - bullshit. When I was younger I listened to that advice and ridicule never stopped. Then I changed my personal philosophy and if someone gave me shit I'd physically confront them, talk shit 10x harder to their face, etc. Most "bullies" can dish it out but can't even remotely take it and thats when the bullying stops.

          Martin didn't have enough confidence in himself to do that but it doesn't really seem like he did a whole lot to actually try to fix his situation. He has that constant doom and gloom attitude.

                Martin also seemed like a guy who didn't care all that much about playing football anymore.

                His list of pro and cons looks like a guy who was worried about the long term health risks of the sport, aware of the doors opened to him by his degree and ready to move on.

                  In other words, someone with little reason to subject himself to such shit. How dare he have agency over his life?!?!?!

                    Where in my post did I condemn him for feeling that way?

                      I think an underrated part of this story is what a piece of crap Mike Pouncey is too.

                        Both Pounceys are giant pieces of shit. Been common knowledge for years.

                          I don't know how the wind up in the middle of every NFL PR fiasco for the last two years.

                          I'm just shocked they weren't involved with Bountygate or hanging out with Mike Prifer.

                                I'm not even going to discuss this in length because it's ran its course. My opinions after reading some of it are the same as when I initially heard the report. Martin is a weak and easy target with mental and self esteem issues. Incognito, and others, took it too far and preyed on the weak minded. There is no excuse for this.

                                I don't care if it's in football or anywhere else in the world. I don't care if it happens in prison, it's simply not ok for someone to intentionally try to mentally "break" someone. Not only that, but to reward and encourage that type of behavior on your own teammate? Enough said.

                                I really don't understand excusing this type of behavior because these guys are "football players." They are grown men. They should know better. Martin could and should have done more, but his lack of action doesn't excuse Incognito's behavior.
