For those who aint familiar with American football, Sherman is a defensive back for Seattle covering receivers trying to catch passes from the quarterback. Seattle won and Ricard Sherman went on TV to insult one of the receivers he covered.
I saw what he did and my reaction was he's Bush league, meaning poor sportsman. Cant even win with grace, he's gotta trash talk a member of the losing team. But some people are calling him a thug and he's deftly playing the race card.
He's got a point though, slimy no-class trash talkers aint thugs, not even in the same ballpark.
If he did that and was "white", would white commentators call him a thug? Does his skin color create the difference? And does this mean Sherman just called black folk thugs?
