Would You Welcome Jonathan Martin Back Next Season?

[phintim]

He'll no, Martin = coward, snitch plus is mentally unstable which equates to morale rot to the entire team

 

[Goonies]

I think it's time for a clean sweep and put Martin and this whole fiasco to rest.

Yep agree with you 100 percent. The only problem I have with the dolphins is that atm they're doing everything half azz. They needed to clean house period, including the coaching staff in my opinion. As of right now the dolphins is one of the worst organizations in the nfl.

 

[ohall]

No and **** no!

 

[Bumpus]

I don't see the option for "**** NO!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[TheJetsBlow]

No. Not a chance.

 

[jnewmant]

Maybe as the water boy...

somebody would tell him gatorade is better and he'll crawl into the corner and sulk. F the snake

 

[Dsteve]

He's horrible, weak minded and weak physically. Never playing in the Nfl again.

 

[bcsupratt]

Hell No.

But if he does, I can only imagine how the fans will react when his name is called on gameday

 

[zach attach]

No, don't even let him onto the property. He may "Slip and fall" us.

not gonna be popular comment... they might have to

That's what I'm thinking might happen too - that Goodelll may hold draft picks over our heads to blackmail Ross into bringing him back and then treating him with kid gloves so that he doesn't get cut. Hope not, and of course if Belicheat got off held-harmless for essentially knowing about thug behavior leading up to a preventable homicide, but did little to rectify the toxic situation other than paying lipservice and moving on, I'm confident that if this cluster**** happened to the Pats, there'd be no heavy-handed threats of repercussions whatsoever.

If he is brought back, I would believe there are other motivations. And I base that on the fact that when asked about whether or not Martin would be back with the team, Ross was quick to say "No way" and then quickly thought better of it and backtracked.

They don't want him back.

Football-wise, I completely agree that Miami doesn't want him back. But when I hear that Ross wants to lead the way with Goodell's culture-change movement, Martin looks like the key he needs to do so.

Ugh, this whole situation is just so dumb. A culture-change movement that could sweep the NFL, all because one guy was "bullied" and chose to not show any resistance or stand up for himself. That's called a character-issue, not an NFL issue.
Goodell needs to stop catering to people who essentially Don't like football and what football has always been: a tough guy's sport. He's essentially saying, Hey, if you're weak-minded or soft....Yeah! You can be in the NFL! All those old classic NFL films of scary guys, bruisers, warriors on the field, not your average Joe... nahhh we're done with that. Who likes that stuff anyways, right?

Can the guy with the Fire Jeff Ireland aerial banner get up there with a Cut Jonathan Martin banner?

Just to play devils advocate, if you bring Martin back, bring Incognito back. If we're gonna be all "I feel sorry for you", and give him the ole, "You're really ****ed up in the head, but we can work it out" then allow Richie back too. After all, he didn't even do the worst if it.

If you're going to let Jerry walk (FA) because he's not that good, then why bring Martin back.

Personally, I care about wins. I don't care about being a players shrink. They pointed him in the right direction, he CHOSE not to follow it. That's on him.

Bring Martin back and you get a team of marshmallows. And personally, I'd rather win a championship with a bunch of politically incorrect loudmouths, than a bunch of marshmallows in need of serious therapy.
