stop, please just stop. pretending to be illitirate and/or gangster is one of the main causes of shit-headedness in America today. you need to go see a professional immediately, and have him/her smack some fucking sense into you.

His mother responded:

This guy simply shouldn't be a player in the NFL. I feel for him, he just isn't built for that life.

These are heartbreaking, but Martin's father should be commending his son for "punking out" over the N word. Not saying he should have let Incognito walk all over him or that it was in any way acceptable. I'm more trying to say the word would lose all of it's power if more people just recognized it as a word, and that…

Doesn't justify Incognito, but this is an amazing amount of self-pity. Plus, whoever got honest feedback from their own parents. Sure, people are extremely shitty, but him laughing things off is his own failure. His naivete is beyond pathetic.

"I care about my legacy as a professional athlete. But I'm miserable currently. A therapist & medication won't help me gain the respect of my teammates. I really don't know what to do Mom."

I'm appalled Deadspin, the bastion of morality, would use the phrase " gets boned" as a means of describing something terrible. I would think "getting boned" would be thought of as a wonderful thing no matter what your persuasion. Unless you're referencing rape, but Deadspin wouldn't do such a callous thing.

Err, my bad, that was poorly worded. He's a great corner, but he sucks as a person. One day later and I'm already sick of hearing about him. The point was it was more about him making a play on Kaepernicks throw than Crabtree.

I'm sorry, this guy sucks. Yes, he totally showed Crabtree on that play where the ball never made it to Crabtree and he pretty much had nothing to do with the play. Good thing Shermans brother was there to clear up the beef.

Shame to see the mighty war eagle become just a plain ol' bird.

I know they lost but I'd like to congratulate the guy who keeps throwing up the middle finger on being the biggest douche bag in the world.

Chris Kluwe (2012): 45.0 avg, 39.7 net, $1,633,333 salary
Jeff Locke (2013): 44.2 avg, 39.2 net, $405,000 salary

Didn't Kluwe get cut from the Raiders? The Raiders. I know he was referring to goings on in Minnesota, in the article above. But, doesn't the inability to land a job with an entry level team like Oakland, would seem to indicate that one's career in the NFL is potentially through.

Explain how they focused on this and how had he been on the team their record would have improved. I can't wait to hear this. This guy is a punter, not a quarterback.

I appreciate Chris' efforts and activism in the cause and a lot of what happened in this situation is quite sad, but unfortunately the production topic is a bit whitewashed. Following are the AVG/NET rankings since 08:

This is the most self serving load of crap that has ever been published in the history of the internet. This guy doesn't take responsibility for anything is as if he's been a perfect human being his whole life. I applaud his advocacy but in one sentence his speaks of his poor performance against the Bucs as if that…

Wasn't Kluwe ranked in the bottom third of punters based on ProFootballFocus' 2012 ratings? Maybe his activism had something to do with it, but I think it's more likely that the Vikings just wanted to upgrade at a position that was below average for them.

One glaring omission to this article. Of the 30 or so other teams in the NFL, why was he not picked up by any other team if he's so awesome? He was picked up by the Raiders and then released.

Maybe you're just not that good of a punter and that's why they cut you.
