Incognito Apologizes

The report about the Miami Dolphins scandal clearly stated that there was a history of harrassment in the Dolphins locker room.  The cafateria prank on Jonathan Martin that made him leave the team was the straw that broke the camels back.

The report stated that most of the harassment was done by Mike Pouncy, John Jerry and Richie Incognito.  Besides Martin two other lineman and one assistant trainer  were also victims.  Right before the report came out Incognito slammed Martin in a series of tweets however the next day he tweeted that he is sorry for "acting like a baby".  A day later he apologized to Martin on Twitter saying "I would like to send Jonathan my apologies as well.  Until someone tells me different you are still my brother.  No hard feelings" .  He also wrote that he would like to play football again.

Abuse between children has been known to leave an effect on the victim.  Football players are known to be big and strong men however in the face of abuse even they can give in to despair.  Football fans are now waiting to see how the NFL and the Dolphins will react to change things for the better.
