I think they treated it with the respect this subject deserves.

You mean an ignorant asshole's racist crap wasn't based on sound logic and verifiable facts? Uh oh, this is a troubling precedent to set.

I recently moved from Grand Rapids (Beer GODDAMNED City, USA - according to some non-scientific populous vote), and I found that most the good "dive" bars had been commandeered by hipsters. Now, I ,admittedly, have some hipster tendencies, but the influx of "trendy" assholes really started to kill the vibe at a lot…

Maybe you want to collect your thoughts about the subject before you comment again because you start out with ye old, "I didn't get special treatment so why should they?!" jealously and bitterness bullshit, (hint: they desreve more than you because they are better and more special than you) . But by the end of the…

Devils: So I hear you're looking to make a deal with us, then?

And you blame defense lawyers? Sounds more like the cops' fault.

This is his trademark and how people know it's him. If he showed up wearing anything else, people might ask him how stupid he feels giving Flacco such a huge contract.

Any fashion expert will tell you that you don't have a "look" if it's not compleat.

If Sherman was white, everyone would be talking about much heart his has and how he played. Bunch of racists can't wait to call a black man a thug.

Knucklehead? Why do they think sounding more like Archie Bunker will make them seem less racist?

"I just realized the racial connotations to what I said, and even though I was honest and hold those subtle racial views, I recognize how unpopular they are, so please take them down. I dont like being called out for something that I did, and others recognized before I did.

People are pussies. Everyone is just looking to be offended. Sherman's the fucking man who walks the walk and talks the talk. Smart, athletic, top of his profession, and passionate. This is a person we should be championing, not tearing down.

But what is your point? Howard's point is that talented black men who are also arrogant (in that they recognize their own talent) tend to get a disproportionate amount of hate thrown at them, primarily because of persistent social expectations that blacks will "know their place" and not be outspoken and prideful,…

So you choose to be oblivious or apathetic about issues involving class and race intertwining with sports. You want to not care about important real life issues. Seriously?

Wah, I'm being forced to think about how the wider world is influencing my tiny corner of interests.

Brilliant. Deadspin didn't drive this story. When they posted about it last night, it was just "Look at Richard Sherman acting like a crazy person! How fun!" What drove this story were 1) A flood of explicitly racist tweets and 2) A lot of grandstanding and moralizing that contained barely concealed racism. There's…

A brother can't get credit for shit around here.
