Roundup: Nebraska's Incognito indefinitely suspended
By Eric Olson, The Associated Press Updated 9/4/2004 11:36 PM
LINCOLN, Neb. — Center Richie Incognito has been suspended from the Nebraska football team for repeated violations of team policy, coach Bill Callahan announced after Wednesday's practice.
Callahan said he didn't know when, or if, Incognito would return to the team.
"I'm really disappointed because he's a really good player," Callahan said. "But no one is bigger than the team."
Callahan would not discuss the nature of Incognito's violations.
Incognito could not be reached for comment. His father, Richard, said he knew nothing about a suspension involving his son and that he has never spoken with Callahan.
"I'm not big into coaches I've never talked to," the elder Incognito said from his Arizona home.
Richard Incognito said he had spoken with his son Wednesday but that they didn't discuss his status on the team.
"Me and my son don't talk about the football team," Incognito said. "We talk about fly fishing and stereos."
The 6-foot-3, 300-pound junior from Glendale, Ariz., was a first-team All-Big 12 selection last year by The Associated Press.
A left tackle his first two years in the Nebraska program, Incognito moved to center last spring.
Kurt Mann, a sophomore from Grand Island, will start at center in Saturday's opener against Western Illinois.
Richie Incognito's name did not appear on this week's depth chart, but Callahan on Tuesday would not disclose the reason.
After walking off the practice field Wednesday, Callahan told reporters that he had notified Incognito on Tuesday afternoon that he was indefinitely suspended. Incognito was not at practice Wednesday.
Incognito ran into problems with the law in February when was charged with three counts of assault stemming from a fight at a party. He was found guilty of one misdemeanor assault charge after a three-day trial in June and paid a $500 fine upon his conviction. Another charge was dismissed and he was found innocent of the second charge.
In the spring of 2003, former coach Frank Solich suspended Incognito for unspecified reasons. Incognito was reinstated and went on to start all 13 games last season.
In an interview before last season, Incognito said he planned to be more disciplined in every phase of his life.
"I've got to tone it down a little," he said at the time.
As a freshman in 2002, he was ejected from the Penn State game for fighting. He was suspended for the first half of the Iowa State game the following week.
On another occasion, Incognito was caught spitting on an opposing player. He also got into a scuffle in last year's Alamo Bowl game against Michigan State.
Incognito entered this fall on the Rimington Award Watch list as one of the nation's top centers. Two preseason publications listed him as one of the nation's top five players at his position.
Big Richie is a total asshole.
In addition to the stuff Green Bowl posted, he was tossed out of the Oregon football program after Nebraska got rid of him.
Then St Louis cut him in the NFL for various bits of thuggery.
Buffalo didn't re-sign him and then he went to Miami.
This guy is a bully and a thug.
The stuff we know about him is the shit he was caught for.
There have long been lots of rumors about fist fights and other crazy shit that he skated on.
He actually is a pretty good player, but he's so destructive to any team he is on, it ain't worth having him.
Herm Edwards and Mike Ditka spoke on this today.(Mike & Mike) Edwards acknowledged rookies "buying", but said that accounting for inflation food/salary this seems beyond the line. They both said that while the locker room belongs to the players, coaches know all that is going on because strength and training staffs hear conversations and talk with players daily. Anything over the line/detrimental to the team gets communicated to the HC.
Ditka said he would immediately step in to stop, without question, anything that could destroy team chemistry. He said the rule is as long as a player is a team member, he must be respected and treated as part of the team. (paraphrased)
What do I win for guessing Incognito?
Kudos bossman!!!! You're a great judge of character.
KY All true!!! But wait there's more . . .

Seahawks players criticized Incognito before a game in 2008, accusing him of jumping late onto piles, twisting ankles and scratching necks.
"You know, like the FBI's 20 Most Wanted? Yeah, he'd be on that list," Seahawks linebacker Julian Peterson said.

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 6m
NFL has heard Richie Incognito's VM to Jonathan Martin. Dolphins have heard the voice mail.
The world has officially turned into high school. Maybe even middle school.
Whoa, Schefter has a (guessing partial) transcript of the voice mail:
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 9m
1: Richie Incognito left this VM for Jonathan Martin in April 2013: "Hey, wassup, you half n----- piece of (expletive)...
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 9m
2. More Incognito to Martin: "I saw you on Twitter, you been training ten weeks. (I want to) (expletive) in your (expl) mouth....
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 9m
3. Incognito VM to Martin: "(I'm going to) slap your (expletive) mouth. (I'm going to) slap your real mother across the face (laughter).
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 8m
4. Incognito to Martin, all on same VM in April 2013: "(Expletive) you, you're still a rookie. I'll kill you."
Albert Breer @AlbertBreer 50m
Martin only turned over texts/vm's to parents Sat, then to NFL/Dolphins Sunday. As @MikeGarafolo said, racially charged comments in there.
Yeah, the kid was sitting on some of this stuff.
Good God, this goes WAAAYYYY beyond hazing.
No worries pb, great minds think alike :five:
http://dougernst.files.wordpress.com...pg?w=300&h=209
I see a resemblance with Francis. !#$@ this Incognito guy - time wounds all heels.
Man, I can't wait for tonight!
Actually, there's been quite a bit out there for a while. Generally regarded as one of the dirtiest players on the field (accused of jumping on piles late, scratching in piles). Kicked off two college teams I believe? Rams released him before his contract was up, Bills didn't resign him after 1 year. No shortage of trouble off the field either.
and now the final nail has been driven home
dolphins announce they are done with congnito
what a piece of shit this guy is. and can the other guy actually come back to the team after all this? i would doubt it.
in a matter of days the phins just lost half their offensive line
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ith-incognito/
josh brown, the giants kicker and a teammate of richie in college and in the pros really had some interesting things to say
Quote:
“None of it shocks me,” Brown said, via the New York Daily News. “I don’t know any details obviously. The league hasn’t released anything. But Richie seems to be a person with a tortured soul. He’s had these issues for quite awhile and it’s sad.”
Quote:
“he’s really got some demons that are out of the building.”
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-in-incognito/
And the Lions are said to be poised to swoop in and claim him the moment he is cut.
And here is how Incognito keeps working:
Jim Trotter @SI_JimTrotter 3h
Said one personnel man (who's not alone): "Instead of being a man and confronting him, (Martin) acted like a coward and told like a kid."
Jim Trotter @SI_JimTrotter 3h
Another: "Incognito is an A-Hole, however I'm pretty sure you would want him beside you if you are in a bar fight. Tough as nails."
Jim Trotter @SI_JimTrotter 3h
Also: "You handle it in house (fight, handle it on the field, joke about it, etc.) and keep it moving."
Amazing what some teams will put up with. Heard today Tony Dungy said they had Incognito down as "DND-C": Do Not Draft - Character. Piloi said NE didn't like him either.
Pioli also said KC feared Martin was very smart and too sensitive.
and the media should be making a giant stink about what those personal men said, they should dig and find out who they are and their teams need to fire them
Pathetic part is how long it took anyone to act on it. This is like the bounty thing, everyone knows, nobody does anything than everyone acts shocked when the story comes out. Floria had it right, he's probably played his last NFL game, but that has a lot more to do with being a mediocre 30year old guard than anything else.
I'm actually wavering a bit on this now. What Incognito did was despicable...in civilized society. NFL players are pretty much outside of civilized society most of the time. KYPack mention 'big fat greasy fuckers picking on you' in an earlier post. Maybe if you can't tolerate that, you don't have a place in the NFL? I think Incognito exposed Martin, and his career is over as well.
http://www.nfl.com/incognito
This is a pro-Incognito article that is a total joke and published on NFL website, written after the night club fight, and the preseason game fight with Smith as both are mentioned and blown off.
Pensive looking photo of him staring out at the ocean. Seems like a contract year PR puff piece making excuses for his past behavior and how he fixed it all - meditation CD's from Ricky Williams (blames self medicating with MJ prior to joining Miami, though his dad slammed Martin and Pouncey for the same), Depak Chopra 21 day meditation challenges, and a prescription for Paxil that was a miracle for him (allegedly). Total crock.
Sounds like the Dad is as hurt and defensive as his son. He claims Martin shouldn't be believed because he uses drugs with Pouncey. But his son admitted this in the offseason:
http://www.nfl.com/qs/__min/Incognit...e_2/index.htmlQuote:
Very few know how deep and dark it got for Richie Incognito, a man once voted by his peers as the NFL's dirtiest player, who couldn't manage his temper, who turned to marijuana for comfort, who had no idea how to find balance, on or off the field.
[and]
The truth is, after a decade of anger management issues and substance abuse nearly cost him his job in football, Incognito was actually on his way to finding it.
Stop reading my web history.
Piece is favorable, but it covers a few things that put the lie to his supposed turnaround in retrospect. I don't think Dad is helping when he tells a young pee-wee footballer:
Quote:
When Richie Sr. felt like his son was getting overshadowed in youth league football because he wasn't one of the coaches' kids, the dad reminded Richie Jr. that he'd get his chance someday.
"I'd try to cheer him up," said Richie Sr., who is now a custom pool builder in Arizona. "I'd tell him, 'Payback is going to come, Richie. When it's time for you to have your payback, you open up the gates of hell and make them stare at the devil.'
yeah, richie SR. sounds like a fucking nut job

Incognito has been let hang out to dry and me personally, pray ireland and philbin die of AIDS

So his rant includes references about using "N-word" and wishing people die of AIDS? I'm surprised there is nothing degrading women in his rant as he would have won a trifecta of "how to make yourself look like a fucking idiot in a argument"

I don't know how to use multi-quote feel like a noob! duh!
We must have the same tabs open or same searches.
Yeah the old man definitely gives off a Great Santini vibe.
http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view4/461...-santini-o.gif
The old man is just as big a nut job as the kid.
On a Fin Forum he says that Joe Philbin's kid was on crack and killed himself jumping in a river.
Good job, dickhead, stay classy.
The Fins will welcome the kid back, now.
in this case i think we can say, the piece of shit doesn't fall far from the horses ass

Here's an earlier video of Richie Incognito dealing with a tiff with Mike Wallace. Yeah, he looks like an out-of-control, closet Klansman.....not. He looks and sounds like a football player.
http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-networ...ace-s-comments
The issue is not if he gets along with Mike Wallace.
Yeah, his alleged racism seems to be the issue and if he was in fact this overt racist I say that he would not have the support of any of his Dolphin teammates or had lasted in the league for 9 years. Do you actually think in today's age of grievance and instant communication that Black athletes would remain silent and tolerate such things without complaint?
The narrative doesn't ring true to me at this point. There's more to the story, particularly on Martin's side.
If you look at Incognito's past he has bounced around from one team to another. He might be a good player but his behavior leaves a lot to be desired. Like the guys on ESPN said last night, what in the hell was going on in that locker room? They said normally team leaders police this kind of crap and/or equipment guys/trainers hear this stuff and tell the HC about it. If Philbin knew this was going on and did nothing his job might be in jeopardy.
Kiwon.
He was a racist bastard to the max.
Here's a vid of him calling Mike Pouncey "N" from a few weeks ago.
http://www.tmz.com/2013/11/04/richie...ar-rage-video/
The fact that he lasted this long is a tribute to his Darwinian ability to survive, but doesn't explain away his behavior.
He's done. Miami's going to release him and I'd be shocked if any team came near him ever again.
