Tonight's bs from Cromwell was a last straw for me. I've been pretty ticked off the last few days of what I have suspected to be either a publicity stunt aimed at breaking down the NFL or possibly salvaging Martin's career. That or the obvious litigious money grab. Either way, tonight's statement makes it painfully clear that Jonathan Martin's endgame isn't just taking his ball and going home - it's burning down the field so nobody else can play.
I'm more than tired with this entitled victim mentality that has been perpetuated in this society, and Jonathan Martin is clearly poster child number 1 on that. He was told how amazing he was growing up by lawyer mommy and daddy....and he was until he got to the NFL. There, everyone is awesome and quite frankly he blew. His weakness physically improved but mentally we all now know it didn't. Not everybody gets a ribbon or prize, stop telling your kids that, or they grow up to be a pansy ass narcissist like this.
Speaking of his mommy and daddy. I don't have a quarrel or qualm with their success. I strive for my level of success daily and don't believe being successful is a negative. However, I do believe the sense of entitlement that comes with success for some people is a negative. Because the timing of everything hitting the fan circles the Martin family getting involved I have to believe this is more than clearing their son's name and I hope they are very let down and disappointed in him when the find out what he was doing in south beach the last year and a half.
Now his original action deserves a special place in hell to me. I'm 32 now, played sports my whole life to this day and I have never once quit or abandoned a team. I've cut trips short, nights at the bar ended early, drove for hours to make games and never once did I think to abandon those men who counted on me. If you are going to leave your commitment do so after a season when the organization can regroup. If this is genuinely a spontaneous reaction it shows what an emotionally immature person Jonathan Martin is. I believe it was calculated though to make the most of his leaving the nfl and fulfilling an agenda.
So all this is to say support our Fins. Don't let Martin's agenda win, don't let the media win, and don't let our hard working and committed 53 lose. Educate your friends with the facts, update facts on social media, cancel the Fireland plane and change it to #freeincognito. If you're down there in Florida I implore you with the utmost sincerity to go to the games and be as loud as God can grant you the strength to be for the rest of this season. Show everyone in the country one entitled prick can't take our beloved franchise down.
