Richard Sherman of Seattle Seahawks thinks NFL-proposed N-word ban is 'atrocious idea' - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10544881/richard-sherman-seattle-seahawks-thinks-nfl-proposed-n-word-ban-atrocious-idea)

What a f*cking idiot.

Still one of the best players in the league. Def was the best corner last year. Hopefully Revis dethrones him. But honestly, who wouldn't want Sherman? Would Easily be the best player on the skins if they had him. Only man that comes close punched him the face.

It helps that he plays with an elite pass rush and a pair of elite safeties (Chancellor & Thomas).

Doesn't take away from being the least targeted player in the NFL... while leading the league in interceptions. He is either the best or one of the best players on the best team in the NFL. He also may go down as the best player on the best secondary ever... but obviously they have a long way to go for that to be true.

Either way he is the best corner in the NFL. Almost every statistical category proves that to be true.

I wasn't questioning his talent. Just that he is taking a two sides of the coin approach when it comes to the Redskins name. You can't make a statement like he did about the Redskins name, after you said taking the N* word out of the field of play is racist. It just doesn't gell together very well, and if the Onieda nation wants that as their poster player for removing the Redskins name then they will have made a mistake.

So Sherman speaks out against the Redskins team name but THIS is okay? Football has gone too far with it's ethics policies. Players are paid to PLAY THE GAME. If they don't like the trash talk they're hearing from the other side of the ball they can quit and leave the league at any time.

I understand there are ethics involved and obviously if a White player were to use the N word in an obvious discriminatory nature he should be penalized more than 15 yards BUT, that's rarely the case when these guys have grown up using that word as an endearing term their whole life.

The NFL needs to get back to what they're there for, FOOTBALL.

No lawyers writing up new rules and penalties to drive their bank accounts up.

No letters from congress asking to change your teams name out of the blue.

No censorship on the field when we live in a "free country."

LET THEM PLAY THE GAME DAMNIT!

i understand that these guys are competitive and may be sour grapes ... but i cant discredit what current nfl players are saying (he only plays cover on 1 side, doesnt match up with no. 1s all game, has beast players around him, etc ...

my take on sherman is i hate him bc i hate what the seahawks have done to us in the playoffs

i hate him bc he was acting like an ass after our game when trent punched him

i hate him bc he used the NFC champ game to act "shocking" and try and brand his name for marketing at the expense of being true to his fellow nfl players

i hate him bc it seems like he runs his mouth but doesnt want to back it up when confronted (softball game and trent) .. and yeah i understand that its a game and he is a professional and he shouldnt be getting into fist fights but .... if you run your mouth and that person takes offense to it, you should oblige that person with a mutual affray.

we arent talking about tennis players here.

It would cost a boatload of money to change the name. A boatload.

Yeah but they'd probably make 2 boatloads if they changed the name.
