i do feel bad for martin from the aspect that he was hurt by things and wasnt comfortable tellin others. i can understand that. i think things were just real serious to him and the other guys didnt know. id imagine an nfl locker room to be one of the most raunchy conversations around so i dont think it was like that unusual or anythin to the point where ppl shoulda been alarmed
Right, and I've made the same argument that if it was simply friends doing what friends do, then it was Martin overreacting. I don't think it was though, because they knew Martin was an introvert and a little "sensitive", but they kept ****ing with him. I think they had good intentions, but that doesn't excuse it. Having awareness of others is the foundation of society. He either wasn't aware he was being a complete *******, or he didn't care, and neither is acceptable considering his behavior.

Also, it wasn't an isolated incident as we now know.
