OT: Richard Sherman is my new hero

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
What did Skip say about this dude earlier in the show?
 
Skip is such a master troll. So many people get so butthurt about what he says it's hilarious.
 
Lol Sherman sounded like a retard on the air. Said his goal is to be "all-pro first team" then realized he already accomplished it and tried to cover it up by continuing to ramble on.

You guys sure he didn't graduate from Stamford College instead? :chuckles:
 
I honestly have very little issue with Skip Bayless. He's succeeding in his field because all I see is sports people on forums whining about him.

Sherman is an idiot.
 
Sherman let Skip get under his skin and it was pretty evident. If he believed half the shit he was saying to Skip, he wouldn't or shouldn't feel the need to address Skip since he's so above him right? Why explain yourself to someone you feel is beneath you? And not only explain yourself, but appear so butthurt about it too... Beta shit.

"Is not afraid to say what he thinks" - there's a lot of idiots in sports media that aren't afraid to say what they think and I still don't respect them because they are stupid

I give Skip a pass though because he believes absolutely nothing he says, it's what ESPN tells him to say.

So many of you must be really young, and I'm just getting old. Skip has been doing this for YEARS, well before ESPN even existed. This is who he is. Yes, ESPN loves it and takes advantage of it because its such a ratings grabber.

But if you think he's just playing a part, wrong.

I agree, he says some really idiotic things at times that makes you say WTF. But I respect that's he's not swayed just by popular opinion, and is willing to go against the grain. That's not an easy thing to do. No matter how luny tune it can be at times. Most national media personalities just scoop up the latest hot buzz in sports, and eat it up with spoon regardless of what they think.

The best thing these guys can do is pretend skip doesn't exist. It sucks that so many people tune in to hear skips over the top opinions on sports. Sherman didnt accomplish much but he did destroy skip. Is skip really using his education when on first take?

How in the world did he "destroy" Skip? He sounded like an angry 12 year old playing Call of Duty. "You can only inspire to be those two things." "I'm better than you." "I'm better at life than you." "What you say isn't credible because it's your opinion" blah blah blah. The dude talked shit that had absolutely no substance yet somehow he "destroyed" Skip Bayless?
 
I initially said Sherman destroyed Skip as well but I'm starting to fade back on that. The more I watch this the more Sherman comes off as an total ass clown. Is this really a hero to you? He fell right into Skips trap, and I bet nobody loves this more than skip. Maybe Richard will accomplish a torn ACL in the future. A pro athlete shouldn't present himself like that. He basically told skip he's god to him.

Thought he said aspire. Sherman's butt hurt yes, but I don't care about skips feelings. Fuck Skip and Sherman.
 
Smooth, please reconsider your life if this guy is your hero.

Who are you to tell someone to reconsider their life? Didn't we go through the whole "its my life, I'll abstain if I want to" thing with you already?
 
I think Sherman's plan was to out troll Skip Bayless. He found out thats not possible :chuckles:

Because seriously, if he really believes half the crap he said he is just a dumb immature kid.
 
Sherman just showed his immaturity, 10 fold with the "I'm better than you." comment. At such a young age, the pompous/egotistical is shining brighter than the sun. He's on top of his game, now. But football players do not have longevity. It's what 3-5 years, tops? And how long have we known/hated Skips ability to troll? Sherman has accomplishments, but Skip has longevity.... You can troll for years. Sherman can't dominate, in the long haul. There's always someone younger, faster.

Name me someone who annoys you more than Skip. It's such a love/hate affair. I follow him on twitter, just to get mad at his tweets. WTH?! :chuckles:
