Will Coughlin look into this the same way he looked into his own players commenting after the NFC Championship game that they targeted Kyle Williams concussed head to cause fumbles. (Go find Devin Thomas/Tyler Sash post NFC Championship game quotes).

The Saints get heat for bounties but in the very same season, The Giants admittedly and publically talk about targeting a player with concussions and the media sweeps it under the rug.

———————————————————

When a player has a history of concussions he might be a little worried about taking another hard hit. That worry can cause him to lose focus and make a mistake…which happened. There was nothing to sweep under the rug because the only thing Williams hurt was his pride. That’s different than running an organized bounty program that rewards players with money for cart offs. Nice try though.

Poor Princess. First there was a pea in the bottom of his mattress which are apparently too small for the Giants, and now she can’t stand a little friendly locker room fun.

$20 says he’s gay, the other players know it, and this is their way of dealing with it.

Also, How did the Giants get away from Bounty-Gate without a scratch? This is the same team that talked post game about having targeted injured body parts on other players right?

If I was Prince Amukamara I would wait till JPP gets his contract extension and set his most expensive car on fire. I lost all respect for JPP and whoever is saying “stand up for yourself”. I wonder why JPP didnt try this with Marvin Austin that big DT. I know why because he a big ol puss.

Coughlin will do nothing to JPP in regards to regular season suspensions of any kind.

NFL swept this under the rug and so will the Giants.

Prince needs to work on some really nasty payback and hope he comes out of it alive……

Not going to lie, I lost a fair amount of respect for JPP.

For those who think Coughlin is going to let this slide, let me remind you, he benched Bradshaw last year (Week 14 at Dallas) for missing curfew. JPP is in hot water. (No pun intended)

For the Dallas fans calling (hoping) for a team suspension from the Season Kickoff, you might get your wish, however, don’t think that guarantees you a win. Jason “Iced his own kicker” Garrett is still Head Coach, and Jerruh is still running that team. I’m pretty sure that gives the Giants a fighting chance.

If Sharpton/Jackson denounced JPPs language, it would benefit society more than they could realize.

This is no mystery. Prince is a devout Christian, a real one, who doesn’t smoke, drink or swear, who doesn’t beat his chest in macho “warrior” BS. He respects other people, he doesn’t threaten or curse them, he doesn’t demean them. That makes him the target of the likes of JPP, because to them, he’s weak, he’s soft. He doesn’t fit the profile, he doesn’t join in the reindeer games, so JPP is determined to bully the “toughness” into him.
Ironically, there’s another such Christian man on the Giants. His name is Tom Coughlin.

I’m dissappointed seeing nyg players treating a teammate in this matter.
Your a tough guy JPP picking on a 5’9″ Prince.
Some of the other players should of manned up and said something and protected Prince.

As a Giants fan, I find this embarrassing and pathetic.

I’m not going to be one of those fans that deflects it by saying, “It happens everywhere!” because it makes no excuse even if it does.

It goes on beyond football and really just reflects a shoddy mentality that continues to reinforce the notion that regardless of the absolutely amazing athletic gifts and financial success these players have, I really can’t envy them. I think I’m better off not being a millionaire, but having the common sense that acting like that doesn’t make you “hard” or worthy of respect.

Whoever says Prince needs to stand up for himself, what exactly do you expect him to do? JPP is much bigger and stronger and there would be no doubt who would win a fight. Maybe Prince could call him some names? Likely no effect there. Maybe he could convince the punter to post the footage on youtube and show the world what JPP is like off the field…

As a former high school and junior college player I would like to say this is ridiculous. Simple hazing typically happens to the new guy to “break them in”. But it should not be done in such a humiliating way. Or to a player who is entering his 2nd year with the team. JPP comes out of this looking like he has an IQ equal to his fingers and not quite all his toes. If a player needs to “develop an edge” there are far more constructive and lasting ways to teach it. That’s what leaders are for in a locker room. This is not leadership, it is cowardice. It is the NFL equivalent to holding down your little brother and spitting in his mouth. Anyone who thinks this is OK or that Prince is to blame either never played sports or was the guy on the team that no one liked or stood up for.

Haze-gate scandal

vikingamericann — Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:20:37 +0000

Some of you think this is okay, but in this day we no longer tolerate bullying and hazing. The Giants just set a poor example for the aspiring athletes. This is the time to step up and make an example out of a team. Clearly Coughlin has lost institutional control of the locker room, thus deserve a one year suspension. JPP as the ring leader also deserves a one year ban. Furthermore, the Giants need to lose draft picks as well. Oops Mara is the owner, my bad different set of rules apply. New plan, sweep it under the rug, never happen, nothing to see move along. How’s Tebow doing with the other New York team.

“Sounds like Coughlin needs to take Princess out shopping for new dresses.

He sounds like a sissy who is afraid to stand up for himself. If JPP ever tried that on Bill Romanowski, he would end up with a busted eye.”
??????

Romanowski is a little bigger than Prince and a psychotic freak.

Prince did react poorly. He does need to man up.

But he needs to sneak up to that dud a and hit him in head with a hammer. Sound unfair?
So is going after someone u outweigh by 200 lbs.

I never understood that stupid stuff. If Prince stands up for himself and injures JPP than he is the biggest goat in NYC. By not standing up for himself he now is going to look like a punk around the league.

This isn’t the frat house. Guys are supposed to be there to do a job! As a team that has won a Super Bowl I thought they would be more professional.

The giants have now put a bulls eye on him. Opposing offenses are going to pick him apart because they will think he is soft for allowing himself to still be hazed.

The comments in this section as a whole show exactly what is wrong with America. Prince is a grown man, let him fight his own battles. Stop with the nanny state garbage and quit whining. If Prince has a problem he needs to take it up with Coughlin and get it solved instead of crying to the media. The rest of you pansies can go cry into your soy latte frappes!

They keep track of how many games a player plays and they pull weak practical jokes until the player meets a certain number. I hope these “men” pay as much attention to how they spend their money. Seriously, time to grow up and stop acting like you are in middle school. Or at the very least can they come up with more original jokes. They have the creativity of a 3rd grader.

If you have All Pro physical talent like JPP, you can get away with having an All PeeWee brain. Just ask James Harrison.

Coach C. Does not care who’s a veteran, rookie, three regular games short of being “in the frat,” whether it’s joking,etc. He will look at it through the eyes of a THE leader and a mature man in his sixties. To begin with, he will address the likelihood that either one, or both could have been seriously injured, causing time missed on the field. He will also stress that attitudes and treatment of one another DOES have consequences, positive AND negative, which can help/hurt performance and teamwork. He will also remind them that it is the JETS who behave like “Animal House,” and have a RECORD to match. How can ANYONE on the Giants not realize that Coach has NO tolerance for this kind of nonsense with all that is at stake.
