Not so much what was said, as the manner the discussion went. Civilized, occasionally personal, quite a bit of talk about how the media tends to rush to judgment and attempts to neatly put things “in a box” without providing enough time to understand the WHOLE story. It was just really good to see an intelligent conversation on an ongoing cultural story without raised voices, finger-pointing and partisan rancor. Just well-done, I thought, and worth giving some kudos.

Meanwhile, this Raiders-Giants game is just nuts!

I don't know all the facts here, but rushing to judgment based on media reports would be foolish. I smell a rat. Here's why. Look at the main elements:

1) outrage and charges of bullying 2) implicit here as always is racism 3) the workplace/environment here is the NFL

Now how convenient is it that some of the hottest, most fashionable causes today of the left converge in a single imbroglio? Is it coincidence or a phony narrative they construct for their own ends? We know, if we're paying attention, that charges of racism are a hammer the left employees to subdue their ideological opponents and pound out their vision; and I think we can now see the bullying hysteria in the same light. Bullying can be defined equally as broadly and baselessly as racism, and with the same chilling effect. Here we are presented with the tale of a mean white man bullying an innocent, helpless black man. BAD! And that simplistic narrative is not very credible, really.

It also evident the left would like to see the NFL go away and will punish and sabotage it with hope of picking at the carcass later on down the road. That's what the left does- destroy. Is Incognito an angel? I don't think so- he seems like a bit of an ogre but maybe I'm mistaken. He's an offensive lineman after all, not a concierge. I know next to nothing about Martin other than he's painted as a baby-victim in need of our nation's coddling and protection. Could be, though if he's not I'm not sure that will not be suppressed.

I'm highly skeptical that things are as we're lead to believe by the media apparati. We'll see.
