Those rumors are from a poster they believe to be Daddy Incognito going incognito on that board. Earlier someone posted a link to things that tell how it was determined... So if those are false and spread by the papa bear, Incognito is even more screwed.
If he was innocent of all this, Miami will not suspend him, I am sure each and every fin has been interviewed at this point.
Wow. I hadn't picked up on the Father of the Year connection.
I'm a little surprised that nobody I've seen interviewed so far says anything negative about RI. It's puzzling, actually.
Not to support him in any way because he was a piece of shit BEFORE this story ever broke, but I would really like to hear those voice mails for context.
I realize that it's pretty damning, but the part about "training for 10 weeks" didn't jibe with the rest of the insults.
Let's put it this way. I've said a lot of profane things in my life in a joking manner and I'd hate to see some of it in print, but.....the possibility exists that at least some of the VM was some kind of weird macho bullshit and not as inflammatory as it reads in print.
No, I'm not supporting the guy, I hope he gets kicked out of the league on general principle, but I've had co-workers say stuff to me like "Oh, here he comes...you piece of shit, you!" and it was actually a term of macho endearment if that makes any sense. I'm sure most of us have experienced something similar, but for those that haven't, many men are basically barnyard animals incapable of interaction with other men without frequent insults and scatalogical nonsense. Some guys can't really deal any other way for some reason.
The racial stuff makes this theory a bit shaky at best, because it's not quite the same as one of my co-workers calling me "a dumb mick" (it's been said), but the rest of it? That might be what we're dealing with. Silly locker room macho bullshit.
Incognito sounds like a New Jersey street moron goomba with a very bizarre sense of humor, but I'm not sure if it is quite as psychotic as it sounds in print.
Just to be clear, since I've raised a sensitive issue-- if I saw Richie Incognito on fire I wouldn't cross the street to piss on him, but I don't think he's a racist Anti-Christ.
I'm just not quite buying the story that has been presented so far. Need more info.
