You are ignoring (or possibly have no understanding of) the timing and context of Sherman's words and are definitely ignoring his body language and as I said earlier, actions. It was inappropriate. Hence the flag, fine, and apology. That is all.

That you can't taunt someone and expect not to get pushed. Sherman was flagged, fined, and apologized. You still defend him and say Crabtree was wrong? For what, minding his own business? You are wrong and I am getting bored.

Holy moly, yes. When TO spiked the ball in the Cowboys' star at midfield, he didn't even say anything. It is still taunting and still out of line.

Maybe we come from different places, but if someone is openly taunting you, in your face, it is OK to push them away. Sherman got the flag, not Crabtree, I think you are stretching here.

Ya, doesn't matter. Actions speak louder than words? He was flagged for taunting, fined, and apologized for his actions. He was out of line. Don't worry, it wont' make you racist to admit it.

Did you watch the game? Crabtree didn't run over to Sherman and shove him out of the blue.... Sherman was openly taunting him after the play (he was flagged for it), and he was the one who touched Crabtree when he smacked him on the butt and tried to shake hands. The interview was only part...

It might not make him a thug per the strict meaning of the word, but for people who had never heard of him before, its not unreasonable to perceive him as one (or a dick, jerk, or some other similar description) based on that interview alone. No one watched that interview and thought...

LAW and AT-4 trainers are made from expended tubes of live rockets. They are converted and retrofitted as trainers. The LAW trainers are sub-caliber rockets and still produce a back blast. Each trainer can be reloaded (it loads from the rear) and fired over and over, but due to the nature...

I know that. Besides, I have never worn the barracks cover, so even if it does change, I will still, never wear it. All joking aside, the USMC Dress Blue uniform is a very well recognized and admired uniform and is said to be the #1 recruiting tool we have. Changing it, even the just the...

There are fewer than 200,000 Marines. Its more like $40 bucks each. Which is a couple cases of beer. And we don't have to look stupid. Deal.

It is pretty clear that Iran senses weakness in US foreign policy after the Syria debacle and seeks to capitalize.

Rockets are generally considered a form of artillery.

What, I thought we were against a strike here? Form, I thought you, of all people, would find that comment humorous. And some might consider it cowardice. So take your pick, cowardice or incompetence. For me, though, I am not a Syrian, and not facing the murder or terror of Assad, so my...

Its a good thing there is a competent world leader out there who can face down an insane dictator hell bent on bombing another nation and convince him to come to the table and negotiate peacefully.

No, as reindeerthistle pointed out, the red line comment painted us into a corner. It was not necessary to make any such comment, whether we meant to bomb them or not at the time. First gaffe that set up the humiliating run of bafoonery I have been mocking this entire thread.
