Richard Sherman has no insecurity issues whatsoever. nt

1. Sherman made it damn easy to root for Denver in the Super Bowl

What a complete asshole. Fuck Seattle.

[AngryOldDem]

21. I had no dog in this fight, either, until now.

Totally classless, game time trash talk or not. As they say, act like you've been there before.

Go Denver.

[TeamPooka]

2. Guess who's not going to DisneyWorld?

[Baclava]

3. so everyone is a Broncos fan now - thank their classless fans and Sherman

from throwing objects from the stands on the injured Bowman as he was being carted off the field to the crazy interview

ha ha!

Erin Andrews musta had that same look on her face as she did when she saw that hotel room peephole video for the first time....


“Richard, let me ask you, the final play,” Andrews said. “Take me through it.”

“Well, I’m the best corner in the game!” Sherman shouted. “When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree that’s the result you’re gonna get! Don’t you ever talk about me!”

“Who was talking about you?” Andrews asked.

“Crabtree! Don’t you open your mouth about the best! Or I’m gonna shut it for you real quick!”

5. I honestly don't know what he was talking about.

He also made some remarks when he was dressed in a suit and tie, after the game.

Is he the player who was smashed in the face at the end, causing the Niners penalty?

[Baclava]

8. WR's and CB's always yap at each other - it was a trash-talkers feud they had going on

he forgot to flip the switch from game swagger to post-game civility like most of them do

[tularetom]

4. Stanford??? WTF?

Ironically he was probably recruited there by Harbaugh.

[Brother Buzz]

6. He played under Jim Harbaugh, and there's a lot of bad blood there.

[Paladin]

7. He has a Communications degree from Stanford.

Believe it or not......

[Packerowner740]

20. And had started his masters

[Wounded Bear]

9. Seahawks fan here....

Oliver should be fired for shoving a mike in his face mere seconds after the biggest game of his life.

Sherman has backed up every single thing he's ever said. Crabs get to think about how good who is for the next 8 months.

[GreenEyedLefty]

10. I'm scratching my head at the negative reaction over this interview.

The question he was asked was, "What was going through your mind at that exact moment during that last play?" Paraphrasing, of course.

Richard Sherman said exactly what was going through his mind... and now he has no class. Okay. He didn't swear, he didn't say anything inherently bad.

[R B Garr]

11. I agree with you. What's all the fuss about? My gawd, it was the biggest play

that saved the game and it was just moments after it happened. Of course he's hyped beyond belief. To be honest, I think Erin Andrews was the one who came off as classless. She's interviewing a player after the biggest game of his life who just handled a play that will get him to the Super Bowl, and she's acting like she's put upon. And what a dumb question..."Who's talking about you?" Well, let's see...you're covering the playoff game, and you don't even know who's talking to whom on Twitter -- you don't know the matchups and rivals? Ugh. I don't even have a Twitter account, and I even know these athletes dog each other on Twitter and all kinds of other ways. It's been happening forever. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

[GreenEyedLefty]

12. I found this... it is an excellent compendium of what makes Richard Sherman tick.

After watching and reading, I really like this guy. The Lions desperately need someone like him - shoot, we'd settle for half of him LOL - on the defensive secondary.

On edit: my device gives me fits when it comes to posting links... sorry. It's on SB Nation.

[R B Garr]

24. So Sherman's a nerdy badass! What an interesting combination.

He has a great work ethic. Thanks for the links.

[WolverineDG]

23. That's why he paused, looked at her & said

Crabtree. Too bad he didn't add "duh"

[malthaussen]

14. I agree also.

I stopped following the game years ago, but I see nothing at all offensive or bad in what the man said. Apparently there's some bad blood between him and the WR, and he made his point in the game. Frankly, I'm scratching my head, too.

[Baclava]

13. It was Erin Andrews

[malthaussen]

15. He's a cornerback.

He better not have insecurity issues.

16. That was a moment of realness from Sherman

Quite refreshing in this era of prefabbed marketing.

[texanwitch]

17. I saw it happen live.

I didn't know what he was talking about. Still don't.

[Scuba]

18. I've got no problem with what he said.

He was hyped, but his words were NOT offensive in any regard. At least that's my opinion.

I'll be rooting for the Seahawks 'cause I like Russell Wilson.

[warrior1]

19. After a day and hearing about his story

He was right to be pissed I'm okay with that.

[hack89]

22. Sure beats Peyton "Stepford Wife" Manning

nice to see real people with real passion.
