After the Seattle Seahawks defeated the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman gloated and attacked 49er receiver Michael Crabtree.
The Internet exploded after the bizarre interview. Many reporters hopped up and began passing judgment. They said Sherman was out of line. He was disrespectful to the game. He was acting in a manner unbecoming of a professional athlete. He was called a thug.
Today Richard Sherman held a press conference. He told reporters “thug” is the new “n-word.”
Really dude?
