Eloquent good sportsmanship is the exception today. <br /><br />Remember the days when there were no end-zone dances, and no silly displays after a quarterback sack? Football has become a live cartoon, and other sports are all following suit, it seems.

I did read your published article (way to go, Jim!)to enlighten myself. The Sherman diatribe reminded me of why I crawled into that shell in the first place.

That said, Sherman would've been better served, in my opinion, to let his play speak for itself.<br /><br />Unless, of course, his entire purpose was to draw attention to himself during the pre-Super Bowl hoopla, in which case . . . mission accomplished.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794712479594188124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329973.post-7297586215407482292014-01-21T15:53:58.234-05:002014-01-21T15:53:58.234-05:00I agree that Richard Sherman acted like a complete...I agree that Richard Sherman acted like a complete tool, but I can't assume that the 49ers wouldn't have done/said similar things had they won. Colin Kaepernick's self-love celebration is as obnoxious as anything I've seen since Terell Owens was pulling sharpies out of his shoes and spiking the ball on the Cowboys' star (actually that as kind of cool). <br /><br />So at least we get to see a different jackass in this year's SB. That said, I hope Peyton Manning & co. shut Sherman up.
