Richard Sherman Outrage

Recommended Posts

​ Many people enjoy the pleasures of American football as we know it today. Sometimes however, certain actions catch the attention of any person, football fan or not. Recently Richard Sherman most definitely met the standard for attention grabbing.

Most of you might know of the interview that occurred post-game after the Seahawks beat the 49ers to advance to the Super Bowl as Richard Sherman exploded on interview. As reporters asked questions, Richard retaliated by hollering out like a mongol. A memorable quote from the interview by Sherman was "don't you ever talk about me!". What do you guys think? Was Sherman in the right? In his defense, well you're talking to a man full of energy after he sent his team to the Super Bowl; What can you expect? Or maybe on the flip side of things no, his actions were unruly and disrespectable. Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Most of you may know of Richard Sherman’s interview that occurred after the Seahawks beat the 49ers to advance to the Super Bowl as Richard Sherman exploded on interview. As reporters asked questions, Richard retaliated by hollering out like a mongol. A memorable quote from the interview by Sherman was "don't you ever talk about me!". Was Sherman in the right? In his defense, well you're talking to a man full of energy after he sent his team to the Super Bowl; What can you expect? He even apologized to the people he could have offended. To add on, he also said “I probably shouldn’t have done that. I regret doing that,†On the flip side of things no, his actions were unruly and disrespectful. No matter what side you are on, consider this quote “If you catch me in the moment on the field when I am still in that zone, when I'm still as competitive as I can be and I'm trying to be in the place where I have to be to do everything I can to be successful ... and help my team win, then it’s not going to come out as articulate, as smart, as charismatic - because on the field I'm not all those things,â€
What do you guys think? Do quotes like this change your opinion; is this honesty? Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Most of you may know of Richard Sherman’s interview that occurred after the Seahawks beat the 49ers to advance to the Super Bowl as Richard Sherman (he) exploded on interview. As reporters asked questions, Richard retaliated by hollering out like a mongol. A memorable quote from the interview by Sherman was, "Don't you ever talk about me!". Was Sherman in the right? In his defense, well you're talking to a man full of energy after he sent his team to the Super Bowl; (change semicolon to a peroid)  What can you expect? He even apologized to the people he could have offended. To add on, He also said“I probably shouldn’t have done that. I regret doing that,(change comma to a period)†On the flip side of things no, his actions were unruly and disrespectful. No matter what side you are on, consider this quote“If you catch me in the moment on the field when I am still in that zone, when I'm still as competitive as I can be and I'm trying to be in the place where I have to be to do everything I can to be successful ... and help my team win, then it’s not going to come out as articulate, as smart, as charismatic - because on the field I'm not all those things.†(This sentence is a run-on. You're going to have to have to break it up with more punctuation.)
