NFL Playoffs

Because he doesn't have any class, he can't seem to separate Twitter from reality. Whatever was said on Twitter should have stayed on Twitter. All he had to do was play his game and keep his mouth shut. Then after the game, he could go back to twitter and brag to his heart's content. Just a tool.

I disagree, if someone is showing disrespect then it is fair game to give it back double. That's what being a true competitor is about. There is no turning the cheek in this world, especially on an NFL field. But simply it should have been said in press conferences or on Twitter. Right after the game why not talk about how you and your team are going to the Super Bowl. Instead he made it all about himself vs. the "sorry" receiver.

Football is the one game that everyone eventually gets "humbled"..

I was probably the one person who wasn't too offended with what Sherman did. Not saying it was perfect behavior, but it's fine.

 

[kskate2]

IMO there's a right way and a wrong way to do everything. That was clearly not the right way. That's all I have to say.

I agree, but I don't think it warranted an apology. He didn't use profanity or anything (as far as I can recall).

 

[DarthFed]

Calling someone a sorry receiver and yelling like a maniac is generally disrespectful. The question is whether or not Crabtree had it coming and that seems like the case. But again the only problem I have is the timing.

 

[kskate2]

Crabtree might've had it coming. I'm not disputing that. But to go on a rant like that on national TV? The look on Erin Andrews face was priceless like those Mastercard commercials.

I am picking Denver over Seattle.
Manning factor got me!

 

[nehmeth]

I like Denver, but not a fan of Peyton.

I like the Seahawks, but not a fan of Pete Carroll.

The "Bishop factor" got me. Go Broncos.

Agreed. I have seen Gilles Simon and Richard Gasquet do the exact same thing before, and they never apologized.

Maybe it was Richard Sherman's bad breathe that produce that look on the face.

Classic AP. :laydownlaughinglaydownlaughing

Regarding the Sherman soap opera...I'm a Seahawks fan, but the guy was/is way too much. I hear all the pros and cons every day on ESPN radio and I have a one-word response...Unprofessional. Way too much of that stuff going on in sports, which is what drove me away from it for several years. I don't care how educated/intelligent they are. Try that shit at YOUR job and see what happens. I'll take the Barry Sandersss and the Peyton Manningsss over the Terrell Owensss and the Richard Shermansss any day. That said...GO SEAHAWKS!!!

 

[DarthFed]

There aren't many cons when it is just a cocky cornerback running his mouth. The worst are the receivers who create drama by A) complaining about not getting the ball thrown their way at least 50 times a game and B) not trying hard because they are upset they don't get the ball 50 times a game.

I would take Sherman on my team anyday, amazing player and helps bring toughness and swagger to the best defense in the league.

I agree..if he stays healthy, he will continue to be all pro and a future hall of famer.Funny someone mentioned Terrell Owens , Terrell or Calvin Johnson are the only types of receivers to be effective against Sherman.Terrell can out run,out jump or get real physical with Sherman who can just bully a smaller receivers.

Stupid assessment of T.O. and Moss. Shows that you totally misunderstand them and don't give their very high intelligence enough credit.

Humor me bud, and at the end tell me how many Super Bowls they won between them despite having crazy amounts of talent.

Are you kidding me?

There are a number of "selfless", "classy", supposedly wonderful team players who have never won a Super Bowl or only won 1 in 20 years (Peyton Manning, Dan Marino, Tony Gonzalez) and no one ever impugns their character, saying "they never won the big one because there was something wrong with them mentally".

I can spin it this way - Moss got to 2 Super Bowls, and T.O. got to one. Also, Moss was the key player in the Patriots being the only team ever in the Salary Cap age to go undefeated (16-0). The only year the Reid-McNabb regime got to the Super Bowl was when T.O. was there, and their regular season record was 14-2. The only time Jim Harbaugh has gotten to a Super Bowl as an NFL coach was with veteran Randy Moss being one of the most loved and looked-up-to players on his team.

Does it sound like we are talking about two losers here?

And, are you going to hold the Tyree helmet catch against Moss, as if it proves that he wasn't a winner? That is ridiculous. Moss made the go-ahead TD catch late in the 4th quarter before the Giants' final drive. He stepped up in the clutch when his number was called. It wasn't his fault that such a lucky catch was made by Tyree or that Eli and Plaxico connected for the TD.

 

[DarthFed]

I never said they were negative players overall, but they had noticeable CONS in the pros vs. cons list. Belichick and Brady did get Moss on the right path but aside from that he was mostly a cancer in the locker room and someone who would notoriously take plays off.

T.O. was all about himself, everyone knows that, another team cancer. T.O. and Moss were great receivers that should have been a whole lot better as teammates. I will say that T.O. didn't take plays off and was someone who would often go over the middle (unlike Moss) but you know he was always going to cause trouble in the locker room.
