JPP/Prince Amukamara Video Reaction: It's A Disturbing Sight

I am not sure what to make of this whole Jason Pierre-Paul dumping New York Giants teammate Prince Amakamara into a cold tub thing, a video of which was posted on Twitter by Giants punter Steve Weatherford. That is shown after the jump.

To be honest, the only word I can come up with to really describe what I saw is 'disturbing.' It's disturbing on a few levels.

The violence with which JPP hauls Amukamara through the hallways and slams him into a cold tub full-clothed is disturbing.

The way Amukamara reacts, or doesn't react, and the fact that teammates are yelling at him "you better stand up for yourself," is disturbing. This training camp interview with Amukamara, where you can come away with the idea last year's No. 1 pick does not have a lot of friends on the team, is also disturbing.

The fact that punter Steve Weatherford chose to post the video might also be considered disturbing. Weatherford is one of my favorite Giants, and he likely figured this was all in good fun. There has been some backlash, though, some fans -- and some media members -- don't know what to make of it.
