Jason Pierre-Paul Throws Prince Amukamara Into Cold Tub [NSFW] [VIDEO]
New York Giants' defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul recently threw his teammate, cornerback Prince Amukamara, into a cold tub at training camp. Stop being so sensitive, people. This isn't a big deal at all.
**Please note that there is some language in this video that isn't safe for work and might be offensive.**
Look, these sorts of things happen at NFL training camps. Rookies get taped to goal posts. Young players get their cars filled with bubble wrap. Young players occasionally get dunked into cold tubs. This isn't a big deal at all. However, some people get bent out of shape when it comes to hazing. My advice is this; get bent out of shape when there is truly something to get bent out of shape about.
Don't fall into the trap of putting all things that could be considered hazing in the same category. There is a huge difference between hazing a young player by dunking him in water and hazing a player by beating him up until he's nearly unconscious. There is an enormous difference between the two. Don't act like they're the same thing.
New York Giants' head coach Tom Coughlin is reportedly upset about this video of Jason Pierre-Paul throwing Prince Amukamara into a cold tub during training camp in Albany, NY. Coughlin said that he will address the incident "strongly."
Tom Coughlin should address the fact that punter Steve Weatherford tweeted the video. This story became huge once the video went viral. It wasn't smart to post the footage. This kind of stuff should be kept in the locker room. Outsiders tend to make a much bigger deal out of things like this. With that in mind, Weatherford should have had the foresight to see where this would end up.
