We didn't need audio to tell he was trying to be a cockbag. Edited January 23, 2014 by Chilihead90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two guys obviously dislike each other and talked s*** all game, Sherman made sure he got the final jab in. Possibly or it was a quick, honest reaction on everyone's part. When I was watching live, I definitely thought Sherman went over there to taunt but in the video he sounds sincere, no sarcasm in his voice. Either way, I don't blame Crabtree one bit for his reaction either. It's entirely possible that Sherman was being sincere with that handshake attempt and when Crabtree slugged him it caused Sherman to go off in the interview but that wouldn't fit the narrative.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I can't believe anyone would buy that he all the sudden would flip a switch from trying to be the biggest s*** talker in football to all the sudden being a really nice guy with a player he himself has said he does not like. Call me crazy, but there ain't a chance in hell that he wasn't trying to be a cockbag with that move. Not a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My final take from all this is that a communications major from Stanford turned out to be a marketing genius. Go figure. He knows what he's doing every step of the way.

No, it fits the narrative perfectly because he apparently already hated Crabtree, then went to rub it in. Cmon, there's no way he wasn't rubbing that in running over there. Zero doubt. Which, I have more of a problem with than any of his comments. Ran halfway across the field to make a point and act like a clown. Go celebrate with your team.

He knew he'd be questioned about such an unsportsmanlike act, so he had a perfect cover. "I was just trying to say good game man!" Ya, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulstar Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (scs787 @ Jan 22, 2014 -> 06:54 PM) It is my understanding that Paul Pasquanelli will be the Bears DL coach(he was previously thought to be LB coach), and Reggie Herring will be the Bears LBs coach. All their experience at the NFL level have been in 3-4 defenses. This is really telling if you ask me. Almost makes me wonder why Wade Phillips wasn't brought in as DC, but then again perhaps he didn't want to start a new again or Trestman and Emery have faith in Mel Tucker and Tucker sold them on his defensive plan. Either way, I think it's pretty clear we will see some 3-4 action next year. More clues will be given with free agency and the draft as to what the D will look like.

Opinion - a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. Thus, you believe that Sherman is an idiot. That's the entire point of this conversation. You think Sherman is stupid and lacks intelligence. That's why you are calling him an idiot. Edited January 23, 2014 by witesoxfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexSoxFan#1 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 BTW, the word thug gets thrown around way too much to describe, and let's be real now, young black athletes. When's the last time a white athlete was called a thug? I don't recall that word being used to describe Incognito even though he was recorded threatening another person and his family with violence. Was it used against Roethlisburger? Not that I can remember. Oh but ranting on TV and being a poor sport now makes you a thug even though no real crimes were committed. I hate bringing race into this but just read twitter, FB and YouTube and Sherman is being called a thug and much more worse things including the N word. All because he sounded like a roided up WWF wrestler for half a minute, SMH. I ain't accussing anyone of that here, just wanted to vent on the ridiculousness of this. /rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, and I'm sure I'm guilty of it somewhere along the lines, I try and limit my use of the word thug to actual criminals and actual bad guys in the NFL. Incognito is definitely a thug. Richard Sherman is still just a douchebag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta question why, though, because the NFL certainly seems to make itself a ton of money, at least enough to pay Goddell close to $30M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
