Dick Sherman

[edubbs]

Well, I use to be a huge fan of Richard Sherman but this weekend he has become Dick Sherman and I can't wait till someone pulls a Wes Welker on him and sets him back in his place. IMO he is the best corner in the league but he has made it very easy for me to root against him. What are your thoughts?

Personally, I loved it. Sherman is by far the best corner in the league and his play backs it up. He makes probably the biggest play of his career, helping send his team to the Super Bowl. Sherman already plays with a high motor and backs up his chirping with his play on the field. He has a history with Crabtree and it is well known that they do not like each other and to make that play, against a guy who has run his mouth about you, you're damn right he's going to be fired up. So, what did you expect to get from him, 3 minutes after making the biggest play of his career while the adrenaline is still jacked up.

Not only is Sherman is an extremely talented and smart guy, he is truly one of the nicest players off of the field. So for people to call him a "thug" after seeing his post game interview in asinine. They need to look at the whole picture. Most players are able to flip a switch from on field to off field. His on switch is intense. When I play sports, I play with a high motor as well and I do some chirping. I understand after making a big play that emotions run a little high so I see nothing wrong with it.

IDK even if I beat my greatest rival I show a little class and I DO NOT rub it in their face because god knows I will kill someone if they beat me and rub it in my face. Lance McAllister said it best...

Yea, why be happy about going to Super Bowl, when you can be angry Richard Sherman. Seriously?

what exactly does Sherman's beef with Crabtree have to do with celebrating his teams Super Bowl appearance on national TV? #focus

people are way over thinking Sherman. He chose to be angry and make it about himself, rather than enjoy his teams accomplishment #endofstory

I like guys who are all about the team and have a sense of modesty. He is neither.

I hope he is ready for some blind sided hits because they are gonna be coming now.

[ChrisAsbrockFTI]

He wont be taking blind sided hits...that's dumb to think he's going to get targeted bc of this

[edubbs]

Crabtree has two chances a year. It's dumb to not think he won't be targeted.

[edubbs]

I'll take back a little of what I said about Sherman since they came out with what he actually said on field to Crabtree. BUT it still doesn't quite makeup for his outburst and choking sign he made. However, I can chalk that up to just being immature in an exciting moment. You are alright Richard Sherman.

[ChrisAsbrockFTI]

Thats the thing...people were very quick to jump on Richard Sherman when they didnt know the entire story...I still love Richard Sherman! Well, not during the Super Bowl though!

Reggie Miller gave the choke sign in Madison Square Garden to NY and I don't think anyone outside of New York hates him or thinks he's such a bad guy. Heat of the moment.

[edubbs]

I understand heat of the moment but it can't be an excuse for everything. That is typically when mistakes/regrets happen. Riots are a "heat of the moment" type of thing and those are typically frowned upon. Hell, someone cut me off driving last night and I got caught up in the heat of the moment and properly dispensed my middle finger to them. You can chalk that up to the heat of the moment but I regret it now and feel like an ass.
