I have to say as well as this writer that I was amused by Sherman's comments after the game and saw the raw passion in it. It led me to read this article posted on NBC.

http://www.nbcsports.com/football/nfl/richard-shermans-rant-part-nfl-mindset

This write-up was very well presented and framed in a context not viewed by the casual critic who will simply dismiss the outburst as "boisterous, self-centered, ungraceful and unsportsmen like". Instead it looks back at the opinion of a running back I once loved as an NFL player and his outlook years before Sherman made his comments last night, Priest Holmes.

I for one loved the interview and so did my 15 year old son who watched the finial play with me and said "what a great play to save the game". It made the post game shakey shakey hands and smile dullness certainly more interesting and gives a hell of a storyline heading into the Super Bowl in two weeks!!
 
I personally consider it completely classless and arrogant.
 
You can be passionate and not boring like the patriots players talk and still have bravado. It's one thing if it was just his outburst with Erin Andrews, but an hour later in the press conference, after his emotions should have simmered by now. Sherman continued to talk about himself and down on Crabtree. So regardless of what he meant and the what the game of football brings out. When you talk like that, on a couple of interviews after the game you are going to look like a fool. If sherman didn't want to be judged he shouldn't have ran his mouth and sound stupid, especially later that night. That's how things are, I would be embarassed if I had an outburst like that on national TV. My family would have called me a minute later and would've told me that I looked like an ass.

The interview later on I agree he should have moved on by then, ranting and raving in the press room is what made him look like an asshole. The interview with Andrews was funny as hell to me however, Erin was like Ok before......back to you, I thought that was pricless and made for a good ending on a great final play to a game that was a hard hitting, grind it out football game between bitter foes.
 
Sherman's a dickbag. He's entertaining and I honestly enjoy that the NFL is becoming more like 1980's professional wrestling, but he's a dickbag.
 
Loved it. The passion. The unbridled honesty. The disregard for all the PC BS shoved down the players throats from the NFL front offices. Loved it, every bit.

I didn't have a problem with him before even though he was outspoken before, because he usually explained where it was coming from. Like it was funny seeing him ask whiny Tom Brady, "you mad bro?" lol. But he did look like an asshole this time. It's amusing thinking of how it went down for Erin Andrew's interview, but poor Erin, he made it really ackward and uncomfortable for her. Like I said it's not the ****iness or bravado but undermining a player in the process. There have been ****y players through the years and this last decade.

But they usually talk about how great they are and they can't be stopped, etc, but even they don't do that. Look at Steve Smith, he's got swagger and ****yness and bravado, but he goes about it differently too. Players that say they are better are not usually so serious when saying it, so you see the charm in their ****yness. I didn't see any charm from Sherman in that rant.

Let's not pretend that Crabtree isn't either lol, at least if you believe this he had it coming.

Crabtree's a jerkoff. That's nothing new, either.

I'm just saying, I'm not going to pretend that just because I find Richard Sherman immensely entertaining that that somehow makes him a great guy. They're both assholes. I just like Sherman because he's providing me with free entertainment above and beyond what he does on the field.

I loved Andrews' response. It was basically a nicer way of saying "What are you even talking about?"
 
Sherman is a great corner but personally IM glad he is not a Dolphin. I don't think all players need to be choirboys but he is an ignorant person. He made a great play but his crap was uncalled for. he should be fined for the throat slash gesture but we shall see. Personally makes me pull for the Broncos.
 
1 word for him: Tool

“Athletes don’t do that. They’re usually composed,” she said. “They usually take a minute and that’s why we grab them right after games because we hope they lose their minds like that, we hope they show pure joy. We hope he does the same thing at the Super Bowl. We don’t want a watered-down version of him.”

Andrews said that both she and Sherman reached out to each other Monday and all is well. And that her producers might send her to Seattle for a one-on-one with Sherman before the Super Bowl on Feb 2.

“Why would you not?” she said. “It’s great stuff.”

This is because people love lowest common denominator stuff. That's why shows like Duck Dynasty are so popular.
Sherman has been watching to much WWE. Hope he gets torched in super bowl. Bet he will be quiet as hell
