HUGGY seems to be oblivious to the fact that Sherman is a participant in a SPORT.
Sherman is everything that a parent does NOT want their child to be when that child participates in youth baseball, or football, or soccer, or basketball, or any other SPORT.
Sherman is nothing more than a playground BULLY who needs to GROW UP.
Sherman is an EMBARRASSMENT to all sports ROLE MODELS who lead by EXAMPLE.
Sherman needs intravenous treatments of HUMILITY, SPORTSMANSHIP, GRACE, and most of all, MATURITY.
Sherman needs to SHUT UP and let his athletic skills do the talking.
Yes football is a SPORT. It is governed by RULES.
If Richard Sherman was playing outside of the rules he and the team would be penalized.
I'm not so fond of some of Sherman's rants but I understand why he does it.
Football is not just a sport at the level of the NFL. It is also entertainment. It is an entertainment business. It is not as "predictable" as professional wrestling where outcomes are predetermined but the financial gains and losses ARE determined by the interest of the fans and television coverage.
If Sherman's antics were costing the networks viewership and Paul Allen at the gate and the TV money AND the sales of football gear I am sure Carroll would have to take Richard aside and instruct him on a different maner of acting that would suit the powers that be better.
As much as Richard annoys you and makes you think he is destroying the game for the kids the fact is that his jersey is one of the most popular in sales THRUOUT the country.
I find it hypocritical that those that poo poo'ed Sherman taking medication, that treated his ADD as "performance enhancing" which would help him control his verbal bursts, seem to be the biggest cry babies concerning his behavior.
You all can whine till the cows come home but That play on Crabtree at the end of last seasons NFC Championship was one of the best ever by a Corner in a situation where if he missed the tip the 9ers go to the Super Bowl.
Sherman is big time under the big lights.
