I'm Scared

Richard Jones of Florida has shown us the dangers of nature.  

When animals start teaming up like this, we're screwed.  I'm labeling this under "villains."

Rick Show Villains: Richie Incognito

There's been a lot of news in the last week or so about Miami Dolphins player Richie Incognito.  None if it has been good.

To recap:
  Richie Incognito played college football at the University of Nebraska (which is almost enough by itself to be villainous).   He was a highly regarded recruit, and a good player.
 - In the spring of 2003, he was suspended from the team and later reinstated prior to the 2003 season
 - In Feb. 2004, he was involved in a fight that resulted in multiple assault charges.   He was all set to again play the upcoming football season, but was suspended on Sept 1, and subsequently ended his college career at Nebraska.
 - He transferred to the University of Oregon, hoping to find a new team.  He lasted 1 week before being dismissed
  -Once in the NFL:

  On December 13, during the first half of a 47-7 loss to the Tennessee Titans, Incognito drew two 15-yard penalties for headbutting Titans players. Head coach Steve Spagnuolo benched him for the second half, and the two got into a heated confrontation on the sidelines. It was the second time Incognito had been benched for losing his composure; he'd been pulled from the season opener against Seattle for two personal fouls. However, the Titans incident was the last straw; the Rams waived him two days after the game

 - In 2012, Richie was vote 2nd most dirty player in the NFL, only losing out to fellow Nebraska alum, Ndamukong Suh.  In 2009, he was voted the dirtiest player.
- Multiple NFL players have reported that Incognito said or did unacceptable things to them, including Warren Sapp, saying Richie called him the "n-word"
- Now, in Nov 2013, Incognito has been suspended from his current team, the Miami Dolphins amid reports of harassment and bullying of teammate Jonathan Martin.  They include the following voicemail:

"Hey, wassup, you half n----- piece of s---. I saw you on Twitter, you been training 10 weeks. [I want to] s--- in your f---ing mouth. [I'm going to] slap your f---ing mouth. [I'm going to] slap your real mother across the face [laughter]. F--- you, you're still a rookie. I'll kill you.

 - Oh, and apparently he spends time drunk and in a topless(?!) sports bar

To summarize:  Richie Incognito appears to be, by many accounts, a grade-a asshole and douchebag.

[Update:]

Over the weekend, Incognito spoke out, including the following:

"When words are put in a context, I understand why a lot of eyebrows get raised," Incognito told Fox Sports during the interview, which aired Sunday. "But people don't know how Jon and I communicate to one another. For instance, a week before this went down, Jonathan Martin texted me on my phone, 'I will murder your whole f------ family.'
"Now, do I think Jonathan Martin was going to murder my family? Not one bit. He texted me that. I didn't think he was going to kill my family. I knew that was coming from a brother. I knew it was coming from a friend. I knew it was coming from a teammate."

I'm glad that my friends and I don't text each other that we'll kill each other's families.  That seems odd.
