Seahawks: Foul or no foul, Richard Sherman is my kids' hero

I do not understand why the media seems to attack Richard Sherman. I cannot think of an individual that we should be more proud of; his academic accomplishments, his athletic accomplishments, and his dedication to the education of our children make him the complete mentor for our young people.

You can say he fouled this guy or that, but it has never been blatant.

How many times has he been fouled and didn’t get the call? Do your homework because it is significant.

I think Richard Sherman is a person our children should look up to because he is the real deal.
