How Does Richard Sherman Use Twitter?

Richard Sherman

Richard Sherman is a superior football player, and he’s only 26 (it never fails to amaze me that I’m so much older than the football players I like to think are my same age…it hurts a little). The former Stanford football player didn’t get the opportunity to play for one of the top football in the country (We’re looking down here at the SEC, not that there is anything wrong with playing for the wonderful Stanford program) but he still managed to make a name for himself at his stellar school. And now he’s part of the not-current Super Bowl winning Seattle Seahawks. He’s an impressive guy, and he’s got some serious skill on the field. His downfall is that there are a few people in the world who find him a bit difficult at times. It’s been said that the nurse in the delivery room where his girlfriend recently gave birth to their child found him insufferable and grew tired very quickly of his barking orders at her and there are plenty of people around who are quite happy to nod in agreement that he’s a bit on the difficult side. But, you know, we can’t all be perfect; though that’s no excuse to be difficult. So we were wondering if Richard Sherman has anything at all to say about these things via Twitter. What do you think? Is he speaking up or is he tweeting about other things? Find out now!

We think this is pretty interesting, don’t you?

When owners chase money, they're called shrewd and successful. When players chase money, they're called greedy and selfish.

I get this. At the end of the day, aren’t we all just looking to do what we love and make a successful career for ourselves? Do any of us actually work – even work we love – for nothing? Um, no. I guess that the desire to pay our mortgages and send our kids to college is greedy these days. Oh, well.

So, I have mixed feelings about this one. I often tell myself after an encounter with someone that doesn’t appear to like me that when you make enemies and people don’t like you for no reason it’s probably because they are envious that you’ve been so successful and they’ve not been. On the other hand, I think it’s also something we tend to tell ourselves to make us feel better when someone doesn’t like us so that we don’t have to think that we are just not all that likable, you know?
