Losing hurts. Emotions of the moment will get the
better of you. It happens. It happens when you win, too. Opposite end of the
spectrum; extreme states of mind.
Richard Sherman and Bill Belichick both spoke from
the heart last Sunday and Monday. Sherman’s now infamous post-game rant lit up the internet, crowd-sourcing a discussion on everything from
Erin Andrews’ cred as a sideline reporter to the not so comfortable reminder
that middle-aged white America still isn’t ready for an angry black Jesus.
Bills Belichick’s view that ex-Pat Wes Welker took a deliberate, illegal and
immoral shot at Aqib Talib didn’t generate nearly as much discussion. It was
just Bill being Bill; a mean, bitter, petty spoilsport.
