Richard Sherman..

[spurraider21]

It used to be you just got defensive about RW. Over the season that evolved into defense of the 12th man, and finally in defense of the 2 things you've largely ignored all year--Lynch and the defense. You've come full circle.

and that equates to bandwagonning the seahawks all year?

as an observer of the game, i would be re ed not to give Lynch his due credit. with Wilson and the passing game as a whole being slow, he has stepped up. you've been slobbering on Lynch's knob and the defense's knob all year. that doesn't make you a bandwagon fan of them either, does it? christ

i never actually denied the stadium noise thing, i've literally asked for confirmation/evidence of it outside of comments like "lol sound crew"

[LakerHater]

I want to see Manning wipe that smirk off Carroll's tastic face.

Thats what I want, man I in hate Pete Carroll!!

No, I (as well as many others) do that to mock you and your stupid fanboism over a guy that probably has a +2 WAR over Matt Flynn on this immensely talented team

[spurraider21]

so if i'm a fan of Russell Wilson, and i say things like Lynch and the Seahawks defense is playing well, i'm a bandwagon seahawks fan? my rooting interest is and always has been the raiders. i wouldn't pay for tickets to a raiders/chargers week 16 game if i was just a bandwagon fan

[spurraider21]

hmm, i have openly acknowledged that Wilson has not been playing at his best in recent weeks, and that Lynch has been carrying the offense.

[dg7md]

I thought it was a little amusing but very classless.

Nobody ever accused you of bandwagoning the Raiders. You've bandwagoned RW and 12th man all season which pretty much means you've been bandwagoning Seattle this year. Just embrace the label, no shame in it unless you keep denying the obvious.

As far as picking playoff teams to get behind when the PO's, I get that completely--we all do it to some extent, especially when there's 2 ty franchises like ours. I rode the Giants in 2011 when the playoffs started and Baltimore last season when they started. This year it was the Colts. After they fell, I wanted the best SB matchup possible, which would've been DEN-SF.

This is gonna be a massacre but the good that'll come from it is hopefully a return to more young pocket passers in the future.

I'vealways been a Broncos fan

i haven't bandwagoned 12th man all season . crock of . i've literally just asked for some credence to the fake noise theory, or why their fake noise is better than other stadiums.

Wilson is one of my favorite players in the league, and i have supported his individual performance all year. naturally, when my team is out of playoff contention, i will have a team from the group that i will pull for. i wanted the Pats out, and i like Wilson enough to want to watch him play on the big stage. if thats being a bandwagon fan, then so be it.

tbqh i'm a bigger manning fan than wilson fan but i can't outwardly support a bronco

There needs to be a Gregg Popovich/Richard Sherman body switch movie!!!

Sherman is a real life troll...great at getting under the skin of his opponents.

[Spur-Addict]

For people who enjoy pissing people off and trolling on the internet, they sure take this real life trolling quite the opposite Although, this issue with Sherman and Crabtree dates back to last year. Crabtree approached Sherman at a Larry Fitzgerald event and explained how he was going to dog him. Explaining on and on about how he wasn't a great corner. Real bulletin board material. Apparently it wasn't a carefree sort of situation, it got a little tense as Crabtree continued on unnecessarily. So, this whole situation is irony. A lot similar to the Tom Brady "You Mad" situation. Where, Brady talked BIG TIME SMACK only to lose at the end, and Sherman contributed with an outright interception in that game. Crabtree has been largely absent in the last several meetings aside from the obvious game where he was injured. You know they were jawing throughout the game. Crabby can dish it, but can't take it.

[JoeTait75]

AFAIC he and every other player can talk all he wants as long as he can back it up. Non-issue, imo.

[FYM]

I find funny spurs fans defending a classless act, I thought being a spurs fan was all about class

My only issue was that Crabtree never went to the media or went public with his beef with Sherman. Sherman went too far with the way he acted in that interview, completely dodging the question at hand simply to call himself the greatest and say that Crabtree sucks. That kind of stuff just needs to stay on the field. If Crabtree had publicly called him out before this, then I think people would have a lot less issue with how he handled himself. On-field trash talk should stay just that... on the field.

Sherman is a funny guy and a fantastic troller, but he could have handled himself better in that interview. At least he had the sense to apologize to Andrews for how he handled that interview.

[jag]

I speak for all of the Dirty South when I say Richard Sherman ain't a bad dude, he's just a clown. A PED-using clown who wants and needs attention. Like most clowns, I find him highly entertaining.

Is he an embarrassment to educated, well-spoken black people? Yes.

Is Robdiaz an embarrassment to all messicans? Yes.

[Trill Clinton]

_JaG....how is he an embarrassment to educated black people? he represents himself and his family, not the entire black race, doggie.

anyways, i slept good thinking of all the white butthurt sherm caused last night. so many upset white people on my timeline

the hypocrisy from slack jawed yokels who cheer on their white heroes for doing the same but turn up their nose to sherm for calling out a fellow player


hard nosed football fans who turned into pussies over night due to catching feelings

I agree. I've said I wish he was a bit more humble. Sherman certainly plays with an enormous chip, and could present himself a lot better. But, he isn't stupid, to me it seems more part marketing, and attention seeking. Although, Crabtree definitively did say publicly in an interview a matter of days ago that Sherman is not the best corner in the game. (Jan. 16th, 2014)

Reporter: "Is Richard Sherman the best cornerback in the league?"

Crabby: "Ah, nah, I don't think so. (Shakes head back and forth supporting the "No" answer) I don't know nothin' about the best corner in the league, I think about teams."

So he clearly says no, although he tries to spin it as judging teams on the merit of their overall defense. And, a question preceding this question was a little subliminal, and subtle as it was at the very least directed at players like Sherman. But everyone knows Sherman talks the most trash, and Crabby would be playing him in a matter of days.

Reporter: "When a defensive back is talking throughout the game does that motivate you more, does that effect you? What's the impact of a guy that chirps in your ear the whole game?"

Crabby: "It's compe ion, you know uh. If you playin' to that level, and you talkin' to the level you playin' then it's coo. But if you just out there talkin' and you not really doin' nothin on the field then that's when you know, you get irritated. Guys just chirpin and not really doin nothin. So uh at the end of the day it's football. You know, guys talkin you gon do your job and he better do his job."

Although I'd say everyone knows Sherman talks a lot, and you're going to play him in a matter of days. And you already know a 5th round draft pick with something to prove is looking at all the tape.

http://www.49ers.com/video/videos/Mi...7-6413af32d824

(Direct question occurs at 2:48. Preceding question also important).

And after the game, Crabby says to look at the tape, so clearly saying guys aren't out there doing what they claim, was in some way directed at Sherman.

Well he acted like an ape on national TV. That's probably Exhibit A.

If I can admit that Birdman Andersen and Eminem are an embarrassment to white people, then I think it's fair for you to admit Dennis Rodman and Richard Sherman (when he acts like that). I'm not a female so I'm not concerned with people on your twitter feed or on your timeline, I'm just being honest, brah...

[Trill Clinton]

support toothless cavemen on ice skates throwing haymakers. support guys throwing 100 mph fastballs at another players head, resulting in a brawl......butsherman's rant was just way over the line. he needs to be a good ol n!gger and humble himself

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Why ya gotta play Carolina like that bro?

ah so the the actions of one person is reflective to an entire race. makes no sense but okay.

my bad, fam. i don't even know the teams like that. aye, i went to add you on XBL but i forgot i deleted my profile too. do you have a ps4?

[jag]

you're too sensitive fam


I support this:


If Peyton Manning had got in front of a camera and called out Tom Brady and acted the way Sherman did, everyone here would be clowning him. Probably even more so. I don't even dislike Sherman. I just think he acts like a clown. You need to get your emotions in order
