[FreezingTsmoove]

Typical NBA puzzy shyt. NEWSFLASH other sport organizations arent complete robots like the freakin NBA. Your watching an Nfl game and your interviewing a cb for goodness sakes after he made a gw play wtf do you expect. I actually gained respect fot Sherman after that because at least hes real and not boring like 99% of all NBA players in interviews

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

black person says stupid shit: "wow he set his whole race back. crazy blacks"

white person says stupid shit: "wow what a dumb thing for him to say. crazy person"

Yep. It's just hysterical.

Looked like something out of WWE. It was ridiculous. I have no problem with a player showing emotion and speaking off the cuff, but he just sounded incoherent and unhinged. Doesn't reflect well for any PROFESSIONAL sports organization. This isn't about race.

[JohnFreeman]

[Rose'sACL]

Nobody watches baseball in the southern hemisphere
mlb is still more popular than nfl and nhl outside the US.

[GOBB]

I'm not laughing :confusedshrug:

Ok, but you looking deep into a comment is sad. :oldlol: Not that serious.

People say stuff like "set lightskin people back..." etc etc

Hey there is also a saying about someone rolling over in their grave when get this. Ready for the shocker? They arent exactly in their grave, still alive. :eek:

But hey make another post about it, maybe someone will quote and agree or "this", "+1" your post.

I'd say nfl is the only real North American sport. All other sports are played worldwide.

[navy]

The problem is he wasn't talking to Crabtree. He was on camera speaking to the viewers and that white reporter. It was funny as hell, but stupid as fvck.

[Legends66NBA7]

i think it is more like NBA>MLB>NHL>NFL. not sure about nfl and nhl though. i don't see anyone watching nhl in the countries i have been to.

I would say that the NHL is pretty popular in the Europe.

Pretty much. That's why I prefer the NHL and NBA little more, plus both sports are more skill oriented. The NFL is the most team oriented among the 4, though.

I thoroughly enjoy watching the NFL. Probably just as much as I do basketball. Hockey and baseball equally not as much. Probably right there with soccer.

Thing about the nfl is I feel bad for the players though. The game is brutal. Some of the documentaries I've seen honestly have made me sad.

Definitely agree with your last sentence.

[Rose'sACL]

Why?
watch the video and stop asking why. that video clearly gives you the reason. you'd think guys like brady and manning don't have any motivation if you mistake what he is doing in that video as "being motivated".

[MavsSuperFan]

All around the world, probably. My personal preference about the big 4 North American sports...

NBA > NHL > NFL > MLB
Baseball is incredibly popular in the Caribbean and asia
NHL is extremely popular in canada, the Nordic countries and russia

Also all of that is irrelevant.

Hes a ball player. On DEFENSE on top of that. fucccck class, doesnt have the same mindset as normal people. You gotta be savage to play defense. He choose to show off his savage on TV and i respect it.

[HurricaneKid]

NFL has by far the best steroid and banned substance testing of all 4 major pro leagues in America.

You are joking right? They don't even test for HGH. I don't mean its an easy test to beat. I mean they don't even test for it. I would bet 70%+ of the NFL is on HGH.

[Legends66NBA7]

Non-american popularity of american sports leagues.

I agree that the NFL is the most profitable of the 4, I never disputed that.

My post was to someone saying what the world thinks about the NFL and gave my preference on the matter.

Neither does any of the other 3 major leagues in america.

I said NFL is the best not that they are good.

If you are going to criticize the NFL for a lack of HGH testing, what about the other 3

[215Philly]

okay. then don't expect me to call him intelligent for doing that. if he has to behave like a savage to play good defense then be happy with being a savage. he makes a lot of money and i am sure teams wouldn't pay him less for that interview but i am sure even his own coach laughed at that video.

[GoRapz]

Why do black ppl always have to make it a race issue? What Sherman said has nothing to do with being a certain race. It was a tough, physical and emotional game from start to finish. Yeah, maybe Sherman could have handled the interview a bit better but he definitely didn't do anything wrong to shake your head at.

[MavsSuperFan]

I get that ok.

Also based on your standard it would go

NBA>>>>>>MLB>NHL>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>NFL

NBA has the most appeal of the 4 major north american leagues

Baseball has tons of international players from the Caribbean and from japan

NHL has lots of Nordic guys, russians, and other guys from former soviet states

NFL is purely american

Yeah everybody laughs cause it was hilarious and he'll laugh about it too. But everyone respects it too cause they know he is the best. And if you knew what it took to be an elite corner you wouldnt call him an idiot.

I agree it has nothing to do with race.

But, trashtalking Crabtree in a postgame interview is pretty poor form and shows zero class imo especially after a W, trash talk should stay on the court/field.

Sherman was heated after Crabtree dissed him on the handshake pushed him.... I dont know if Sherman said something to Crabtree though that made him react that way...

But the guy is really emotional and brazen compounding the incident with Crabtree I can understand his reaction because its him heat of the moment.

The only time people may care about the NFL worldwide is for the Superbowl.

I cant imagine the NBA taking over MLB worldwide.

I can understand what Iggy meant but he may not be aware of the confrontation that led up to the interview. But I can see how Sherman's reaction can be taken the wrong way by non football fans from other races....

Sherman went up to Crabtree like 5 seconds after the play and technically the game wasn't over yet and gave him a pat on the butt like he just sonned him. Of course Crabtree isn't and shouldn't be okay with that.

With that said, as a 49er fan, I hate Sherman and hate him even more for that. But that's just the fan in me really. Given the intensity and trash talk of the game, just how long afterwards it was, I don't really blame him.

[cuad]

Iggy spend too much time around dat lightskin sweetheart Steph Curry.

But anyway, it's the NFL. Nobody should be expecting anything from its players or its fans.

However.... the guy graduated from Stanford with a degree in communication. That tells me that he might just be a master trash talker playin' mind games with his opponents. That's brilliant.

Pretty much NBA/Basketball has always been near the bottom internationally. MLB/Baseball has always been the one popular American sport internationally. It's what America has been known for that other countries may have taken an interest in.

Its something that is hard for some people to accept generally because they may not like MLB/Baseball. Like its hard for some NFL fans to accept no one cares about NFL/American football until the superbowl.

Is that what Crabtree said, After the game Sherman tried to son him? You're making a big assumption.

I do think Sherman talks just for self motivation, entertainment and to increase his value and face time.

I really do think (unless crabtree says otherwise) Sherman went up to him to pound it out because it was just entertainment. Crabtree's reaction made it real and took Sherman over the top.

No it hasn't.

Basketball IS and has been, since the late 80's, more popular internationally. Especially overseas.

Baseball, while played in many (often small and poorer) countries, just doesn't have the clout or appeal basketball does. Today? It's not even close.

I dont know how it us anywhere else but in Europe NFL/American Football is as popular as womens golf or something, less probably... the very few ones who do watch something similar to NFL watch the real thing instead, Rugby....

[Burgz V2]

i didn't like the whole Sherman thing, but I have to hand it to him, he put a huge bullseye on his back which takes big ones. Besides, what he said probably pales in comparison to what was said between the lines.

Still, the handshake thing was bush league, I don't really care about the interview. He earned the right to run his mouth, if Crabtree really did talk shit about him publicly (which i have no idea if he did, don't follow either team go Giants :lol)

All I hope for is a good Super Bowl. Hate him or love him, everyone will be watching him now. His teammates can fly under the radar, as is always the case when guys like this run their mouth. If he's fine with the weight of the world on his shoulders then kudos to him.

He had a 4.0 gpa in HS, and scored 1400/1600 on his SATs. He's a Stanford graduate. He's well spoken, but ultra competitive. He talked trash, and backed it up. I really dont get the hate about the interview at all. It was right after an emotional, hard fought championship game.


It amazes me how people complain how soft, and PC every player is now, but then they get some real shit and they get scared.

He didn't use profanity. He was just happy to win the game and was a little too emotional, he didn't do anything controversial. People need to get over the little things others do...lol at people catching feelings

[Rose'sACL]

i'll repost what i said in the nfl thread:
Black person : "black power" . is considered proud of his race. Some radio station actually say this.
White person : "white power". Is considered a Nazi.

[KyrieTheFuture]

i didn't like the whole Sherman thing, but I have to hand it to him, he put a huge bullseye on his back which takes big ones. Besides, what he said probably pales in comparison to what was said between the lines.

Still, the handshake thing was bush league, I don't really care about the interview. He earned the right to run his mouth, if Crabtree really did talk shit about him publicly (which i have no idea if he did, don't follow either team go Giants :lol)

All I hope for is a good Super Bowl. Hate him or love him, everyone will be watching him now. His teammates can fly under the radar, as is always the case when guys like this run their mouth. If he's fine with the weight of the world on his shoulders then kudos to him.
Honestly it's helpful to the team to put the spotlight on him and not Marshawn or Russell

[Rose'sACL]

Also, if you are looking at historically then blacks are more athletic and pretty much all intelligent white guys will agree to that.
At the same time it is considered racist to say that whites are more intelligent. History, IQ tests and studies show that.

Those people have to be from OKC

[ABfor3]

All the hate he is getting just shows how pathetic our country is, come on you interview a player right after he made one of the biggest plays of his career and expect him to be "chill, and calm" about it? Fck no, let him talk all he wants. It's not his fault they weren't throwing in his direction the whole game and when they finally do, he makes them pay. I'm so tired of people being soft, sports is entertainment in the end, why would we wanna watch boring interviews time after time? It's about time someone rejuvenated the Deion sanders type of play, and style. He is the best at what he does, he graduated from Stanford , and his team is in the Super Bowl. Y'all just mad lol go watch opera if you want a class act. This is football, a physical sport.

[CelticBaller]

NFL players are so unlikeable. The NFL is full of roided up freaks smack talking each other all season, and committing murders/crimes in the offseason.
And you're an idiot

Lol at you catching feelings over my comments. See that can go both ways.

He trashed talked Crabtree in the interview is what I dont like. Im not catching feelings, I just don't like that shit, keep the trash talk on the field. Dude would of came off so much better after making that play if he had of shown some class, instead he just came of as a dumb ass with a massive ego.

Its a shame cause someone just said he is a stanford graduate and actually pretty smart, he shouldnt dumb himself down like that.

[Dubs510]

Dre is a huge 49ers fan so not surprise by his comments. His son loves crabtree

players have won soccer world cups and talked in a classier way. this wasn't even the super bowl.
Just because you have low expectations from someone who is talking on the tv doesn't mean everyone does.

Smart people acting like this isn't rare, so I wouldn't say he is dumbing himself down. Why should Sherman have to prove his humanity to people? CEOs and whole boardrooms have been known to act silly after big deals(snorting coke, screaming for hours etc.) but no one cares. Emotions get high at certain points when you are competing. But, nothing that happened necessitated the response we are seeing. Quite frankly, the responses but from guys like Iggy and the racial slurs are far more telling than the actual incident. Iggy shows that he is ignorant, something that Sherman outburst was far from showing. And the tweets show the sad side of this country.

[moe94]

Wait, what?

How is this game not bigger than the World Cup in the US? I'm not saying no one watches but this guy is acting like dude was tripping over some regular season game and just because soccer players kept calm during the World Cup, he should calm down as if it's inherently pointless. Dumb thing to bring up.

Im not American so im not seeing any of those tweets and im not talking about his race, so basically none of your comment applies to me besides the bit about smart people acting stupid being common, which isnt news to me.

Im just saying he came off as a classless, arrogant clown, thats all.

Even in Australia this guy is getting negative press for that terrible interview, and 99percent of Aussies never heard of the bloke and dont like NFL.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, I could not give a shit about what the Australian press says about 99.99% of things that happen outside of Australia.

He showed emotion literally two minutes after making an incredible play. Guess we are different, I don't expect a whole lot of class from my athletes. When it happens it is great but its not expected. On top of that it seems like he came off the way he wanted to..Now he is the most talked about thing going into the Superbowl and has the Australian press...seems like the Stanford graduate with a BA in Communications made a good move.

Did you read the sentence preceding the one you bolded? "This is America". In the USA, football is king. The superbowl absolutely dwarfs the World Cup, it's not even close.

You have missed the point re the Aussie press.

You were saying a lot of the tweets and outrage in america says more about america then it does Sherman, Im just showing that it isnt just americans with the race issue(be them black or white) on their minds who find it distasteful.

Anyway I expect some class from everyone , especially a stanford grad. I often am disappointed though. Anyway like you said we are different, there is nothing wrong with that.

Agreed. I don't want to touch upon the race issue but...

Fck Sherman, obviously he had a problem with Crabtree I had no idea why he had to take that **** off the field and bring it to the media. Yeah the Seahawks outplayed us (and Kaep sucked 4th Q) in a good, close game. Sherman should have showed some class and sportsmanship instead of talking mad **** about Crabtree and spouting off about how he's the greatest.

[BigMacAttack]

You really took that to heart? Doe? Really?

Haha ok you were trolling then my bad, it is still a very stupid comment from you.

[pezt]

mlb is still more popular than nfl and nhl outside the US.

Not true. Nobody I know neither in Germany or Turkey watches Baseball or has any clue about it. In my entire life I have never ever met a person that has watched a Baseball Game.
On the other hand the NFL is gaining some serious popularity here.

In Europe
NBA>NHL>NFL>MLB

I'm not quite sure what that has to do with the topic but still.

I think the inference was too subtle. I really don't give a damn about what the Aussie says about an issue that has made its way into the spectrum of race. Sorry, that isn't even close to right country to use to illustrate that point.

You expect class from everyone? that is very naive of you. Yup, we are indeed very different.

It was too subtle for you, I am begining to see this. I tend to expect a certain level of intellect from people as well, sadly I am disappointed even more often in that regard.

[moe94]

Stop fighting about class. LOL

[longtime lurker]

Lol @ the guy claiming that soccer players have class. Did Suarez show class when he called another player a ****** or is it classy when fans throw bananas on the field at black players. Or maybe class is punching a ref or kicking one of the ball boys.

You can't be this dumb surely, he never claimed all soccer players are perfectly behaved or even that they all have class.

[Rose'sACL]

That sherman interview was one of the most disgusting displays of classlessness in the history of sports

I was a proud and loyal Seahawk fan. I cannot stand behind what Richard Sherman did. I was with the whole family celebrating the game when he started getting interviewed. As he started with his blood curdling yells, I had to instinctively cover my young daughter's ears. She instantly started screaming and crying and questionably coughed blood all over my carpet. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. My wife started yelling, "NO! NO!!" at the TV in absolute horror and disgust and also questionably started vomiting blood all over the same carpet. I tried calming her down, but I couldn't speak over the sudden oncoming of tears rapidly falling from my face. We had to turn off the tv. After I went into the bathroom and threw up myself for 20 straight minutes. We burned the Richard Sherman jersey we had in the backyard, sold our seahawks merchandise to some Mexicans in the area and even went to the extent of banning the word "seahawks" from our household.I don't even know if I can stomach watching the Super Bowl after this.


From this day forward starting next year I am officially a 49ers fan and a broncos fan for the remainder of this season.

The Seahawks have ruined my family.

He could have easily have said players have won superbowls and responded in a classier way. He's insinuating that soccer players have more class than Sherman. If you're going to get on a soap box and act all high and mighty then he'll rightfully get called out for it. Then he has this classic gem below:


okay. then don't expect me to call him intelligent for doing that. if he has to behave like a savage to play good defense then be happy with being a savage. he makes a lot of money and i am sure teams wouldn't pay him less for that interview but i am sure even his own coach laughed at that video.


Behave like a savage? :roll: all off a post game rant? He talks yet follows the sport with the biggest piece of shit fans in perhaps all major sports.

He was saying that athletes have been interviewed after much bigger achievements on much bigger stages and handled it a lot better.

[RedBlackAttack]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRjBhbH3y38He sounds like a dumb stan. Resorting to attacking instead of answering the question.
That video is totally edited in a manner to make Sherman look like he's going at Skip for no reason. They cut out most of what Bayless said. Also, I may be wrong, but I believe that was the culmination of several back-and-forths between these two guys on various media platforms, during which time Skip predictably insulted Sherman's game. Then, when faced with the man one-on-one, he took on the role of victim to the mean football player.

I'm not a fan of the way this Sherman narrative is playing out. The post-game interview was funny initially, but not a big deal at all. Emotions run high on a football field. The guy was put in front of the camera seconds after making the best defensive play of the season and he's a highly emotional guy as it is.

People will cry about robotic, canned responses until one guy has a real moment in front of the camera... then, it becomes clear why athletes go to such lengths to be vanilla.

This is a ridiculous overreation (Iggy included). It's not that serious.
