People on social media need to calm down with their racist asses.

Sure he wasn't the best sportmans about it but if you were hyped and in the moment you would say the same ****. So people need to stop acting all high and mighty about good sportmans like conduct. Get off that BS
Dumb People Say Stupid, Racist **** About Richard Sherman

It shouldn't be about race. It's about good sportsmanship which just about the entire country believes was left out of that stadium. I can't believe you're actually defending his sh*t act. It wasn't even the interview that pissed me off. It was the slap on the ass, the go in for the handshake, and the choking symbol. That's like dancing over a man you just knocked out. It's classless DJ.

Stop being a white knight for douchebags that entertain you.

Well, I wish I didn't read that, but since I did...

I didn't see anyone throwing popcorn at Bowman, but I can tell you that everyone I know was sickened by his injury. If I saw some idiot doing that, I'd have clocked them in the nose. And for all I know someone else did.

As for Sherman, I don't like what he said either, but mostly because it should've been about the whole team at that time, and he turned it into being about himself. As I understand it, those two had been jawing at each other the whole game, we don't know what was said but I hated the way he handled it. I will say that he doesn't corner the market on arrogance, Anquan Boldin is notorious for it as well, but I can't and won't defend the way Sherman handled it.

As for others on the team, most notably Doug Baldwin, I don't think he said anything all that bad. The sports media had been trashing the Seattle receiving core pretty good, I don't blame him for saying what he said.

Love ya, bro, I hope you're not mad at me.

Exo 01-20-2014 09:15 AM

Nope, not mad at you. It was a great game. I'm just pissed at two specific people. Sherman and the assh*le who threw garbage on Bowman during the lowest point in his life. It's not right.

Just to clarify on Sherman, I'm a quiet person even when I'm boasting so what he did on national television made me way too angry. I'm not the only one. Basically the whole country is rooting for Denver now. It sucks because Seattle is an amazing team and one person has to make it about themselves as you said. By the way, I didn't even like Muhammad Ali's showboating. Showboating to me is just classless.

No hard feelings dude.

Paul Smeenus 01-20-2014 09:19 AM

I felt bad for Erin Andrews (who, btw, *schwing*), that was one hella awkward moment for her

Paul Smeenus 01-20-2014 09:28 AM

There was also a fight after the game and some people were hospitalized. I don't know if it was Seahawks or 49'ers fans that were hurt but I do know it involved rival fans. Sh*t like this seems to happen in almost every city in almost every sport and I hate it. Alcohol seems to pretty consistently play a major role in this idiocy.

typical deadspin. fannin the flames for racial tension. they mask like they do the opposite but they post tweets like this all the time on pretty much any major event. maybe its a good thing to expose ppl. i agree the race aspect is dumb and those ppl are idiots


not directin this at exo speciifcally, just the millions of ppl on tv twitter and my fb feed gettin all moralist all of a sudden cause richard sherman went a little wild. i personally LOVE it. how many of those ppl slobber over mohammed ali?? jordan?? kobe? cmon get off your high horses with this crap. except niners fans, you should hate sherman and thats legit. everyone knows how sherman is lol, hes an incredible real life troll.

i bet im not the only sports fan tired of default cookie cutter answers to every sports question ever. and the reason they give them is cause ppl like the general masses get in their outrage everytime somethin different is said. this is a BAD BLOOD rivalry. the hate is real. its the perfect rivalry, this makes it better. sherman is smart as fukc, stays out of trouble generally and he is an incredible player. sherman doesnt take it serious, the guy 'gets it'. of course he is jawin with crabtree all game, sherman makes probably the most important play of the entire nfl season of cours ehes hyped. it came down to 1 play and it was all on him to decide whether hawks go to the superbowl or not and he made a great play. sports fans in general should lighten up and welcome this type of wwe talk


as for the actual games heres my thoughts:


-broncos didnt dominate but i never for a second thought the pats were in a position to win. denver was just better and had more weapons. brady didnt look good which i was shocked at. im really happy for peyton. i love peyton and brady both but nobody deserves a chance at a ring more than peyton especially after he shoulda got one last season

-seattle vs san fran played out as a classic 2nd half. first off i am a penn state fan and rooted for bowman all game so to see his injury was devestatin. so gruesome, and the play he made was phenomenol. of course the refs called it wrong lol but seattle didnt benefit from it (thankfully). i was shocked at how kap was killin seattle with his legs, i assumed that would be a big focal point but the guy is sooo fast. but he made some poor throws and barely snuck a few in there too. you can call it luck or precision but he threw some balls that were risky. the last pass was a good pass but it was just a fantasic play by sherman who is absolutely the best cb in the league

great day of football. but i do think san fran would give denver a better matchup. i dont think seahawks have a chance in hell at beatin peyton. 17-21 point game imo.

Isn't that like the definition of domination?

Sherman is right about Crabtree, he's another player that is over hyped because he's on a good team.

butthead aka 216 01-20-2014 12:16 PM

well i mean even when it was like 3-0 it just didnt seem like the pats were clickin very well. i wouldnt say it was dominatin. pats were hangin around but i dont think anyone honestly thought they were gonna win after the game got goin. i think anyone watchin that game had the same feelin; broncos are gonna win but arent dominatin. and im sayin this as someone that gladly woulda taken the pats at +5 or whatever they were. peyton finally got brady to come play on his home turf in the playoffs for once


i really want peyton to get that ring but oh god... richard sherman as superbowl mvp would just be too amazing

YorkeDaddy 01-20-2014 01:01 PM

I personally love Richard Sherman. Let's go over some facts.

-25 years old
-the very best corner in the NFL
-graduated high school with a 4.0
-went to STANFORD, an elite academic university only really topped by Harvard and co
-does tons of charity work in and around Seattle
-He made one of the greatest defensive plays you'll ever see to send his team to the Super Bowl. If he had faltered, Seattle would have lost because Crabtree is pretty damn sure-handed and that throw was pretty damn good

After making a play like that against a team you HATE that was surely talking trash the entire game? Yeah, Sherman definitely deserves the right to be HYPE after that game. I loved it.
