Why should this or any kind of harassment be explained away by "context" or "standard procedure"? The NFL needs to wake up a realize the time that it now exists in. Just like certain social norms from the past are no longer tolerated in today's society, neither should actions like Incognito's be tolerated in today's…

Those that say "who cares" should just say "I don't care" and own it. Being openly gay in general society has become less of a big deal, which is great.
