In reply to the discussion: Richard Sherman was Mice'd vs Crabtree [View all]Ken Burch
(50,254 posts)13. Crabtree SHOULD have just shaken Sherman's hand.
Sherman hadn't done anything dirty or illegal on the play...it was a clean deflection with no real contact with Crabtree(who clearly lived up to his last name on this one)at all.
Crabtree was just being a pissy loser, and Sherman had every right to be torqued about it.
I think most white folks who freaked about Sherman's postgame thing(let's face it...anti-Sherman feeling was almost exclusively a white, male thing) did so because they thought he was screaming at Erin Andrews-the "that n----r is scaring a white woman" thing kicked in with them...even though Andrews herself knew from the get-go that she wasn't Sherman's target.

Whining is not winning. They will get beat in any big game that isn't played in Seattle.
