Do some research, and then make a personal judgment. This isn't an isolated incident.

Re: Richard Sherman
Haven't read through all 7 pages but I did see the video. My only opinion was the look on Erin Andrews' face was priceless 
I do have a hypothetical question though: What would America's reaction have been if a similar tirade came from the golden boy QB had the Pats won.

Re: Richard Sherman
I don't think it's fair to say that accusing someone of racism is some sort of ~super serious conversation ender~. a) Racism doesn't have to be intentional b) we all do racist [expletive] and often without realizing it c) calling attention to racism in popular media can help people think twice about unintentional consequences of their words.

Personally, I would have been just as turned off. The reason he's the "golden boy" is because he's never behaved like that. One of the problems with Sherman's incident is that there's really not much to compare it to. It's pretty much off the charts.
In the other thread, someone mentioned an incident from 2006, where Peyton mentioned that his team struggled to protect him (after he was sacked 5 times against Pittsburgh). Do a Google search, and you will see that "golden boy" got called out, even for THAT remark. So he's not above reproach.
