I already had one thread dedicated to Richie Incognito this season. Hell, the picture I used turned out to be his Twitter profile picture for God's sake. But the big lug won't shut his fucking mouth, trying to play the victim here and saying "the truth will bury" Jonathan Martin. It's painfully obvious to me that Incognito is a relic, a member of a slowly dying breed of bigots, misogynists, and bullies who use locker room culture as an excuse to communicate their close-minded thoughts in the most base and idiotic ways imaginable. I would like nothing more than for Incognito to never again see an NFL roster, but the sad reality is that he was a Pro Bowler only a year ago, and with many teams in search of offensive line help I'm sure he'll land on his feet. Likewise, I get the feeling Jonathan Martin will have trouble getting a job, despite the claims from some owners, general managers, and coaches that they would take a player like Martin.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have Michael Sam. The senior defensive end at Mizzou publicly announced on Monday that he's gay, even though many people in and around the program knew since August. His is probably the most important announcement of its kind so far in the US, as his selection in the draft and subsequent performance on the field will always be examined through this filter. Here's hoping Sam is able to carve out a long and productive career.

I'm getting worse. I blame the effort it takes to make an engaging, entertaining thread every week.
