Is this Sherman deal really THAT much different than when Peyton Manning went off on the "liquored up, idiot kicker" when talking about Vanderjagt?

one is opinion, one was fact

I know you're joking but Richard Sherman being the best corner in the league is just as fact as the idiot kicker is a liquored up, idiot.

its his opinion that crabtree is a mediocre reciever and its a fact that vanderjat (no idea how to spell it) was being a liquored up idiot in the case manning was referencing in that interview

Yea, that's why the outrage has been so lopsided.

Hey Bomani Jones.....you bringing up race again?

One interview was done after the NFC championship. probably 50 million viewers (totally guessing)....the other was done on the sideline of the pro bowl. probably 1 million viewers.

I asked a question.

You brought up race. Hilarious.

No, I would have put a question mark if it was.

race is a big deal fools have u checked out twitter? people are calling Sherman an ape, monkey, n*****, etc etc. you think thats kosher? get your head outta ur ass. If he was an ol fashion white boy it would of been a "passionate end to the game"

There's no point to discuss that, the race thing is obvious a part of it.

But I don't think that's all of it, it's just odd that this story is this big, cnn was even broadcasting Sherman's press conference on Tuesday, or whenever it was.

[cougnix]

And Sherman said the right things.

Check his webstore. $30 a shirt with quotes like "Don't you ever talk about me" and "Shut Down"

He knows what he is doing. And the fact that his Beats commercial aired during that game just shows that he is marketable...

[uf83198]

At this point, since the story is still continuing to be covered ad nauseam, I think Sherman is a fucking genius

[shel311]

Of course it was a great thing for him.

He's now the most famous cornerback since Deion Sanders, in terms of making yourself mainstream.

This will enhance his marketability in the long run.

Exactly the reason why this is the worst 2 week stretch of sports news / radio. My stream has been tuned to TalkSport everyday this week. I'll pass on the typical Super Bowl non-sense.

Sherman is the man... he's good, he backs it up and he's played this perfectly.

This is why Lebby is your guy.

[ReignOnU]

Lebby + Dana White was epic the other night.

Lebby + Dana White was epic the other night.

Dana White is probably my favorite friend of the show guest, other than maybe Pat Sajak. Sajak is epic. He had Sajak co-host once for an entire show, one of the best shows they've ever had.

He has White on probably every 2 or 3 months. It's obviously jokingly, but the way they go at each other is great.

RIP NDL:F Gatherings.

What will be higher? Total Liverpool goals vs. West Brom: -150 Russell Wilson touchdown passes: +120

I like the soccer goals on this one.. In his last 6 games, Wilson has thrown 5 total TD passes, with no multi-TD games. Add in the weather factor, and I think it's a good bet that he doesn't throw 2 or more.

So all you need is 1 goal and you're in good shape I would think. That being said, I know absolutely nothing about these 2 soccer teams and their goal scoring prowess.

[Cnasty]

One of our team is actually in it and we didn't even so much as have a peep for a gathering!

It being on Sunday night at 6 or whatever it is definitely doesn't help our cause.

Add Percy Harvin as a WR though...
