What has happened to this guy in the past that has left him feeling so persecuted by the media. Sherman takes trash talking to a whole different level, I would venture to a unproductive level at that. But I don't know anything about these players except the little exposure I see on TV. Don't really care if they wear their pants around their ankles or can't sit down in their skinny jeans, whatever floats their boat.
These guys are not role-models in any way except their performance of their craft.
Gotta disagree. Nobody in this forum is here when they're giving back to their communities or working hard for their various charities. And when I go back to the hood and try to show the kids a better way I don't see anybody from the forum there either. But just because I don't see you doing good things doesn't mean you don't do it. It's pretty easy to do research on what Lynch and Sherman do outside of football though. YouTube it .

I guess I should have added,
and don't really care to.
But I hear what your saying.
My point was the reactions that these two players generate are a direct result of what people like me see with the limited exposure we have. If they are better people outside of this exposure, great. But don't get mad that most people have a negative reaction from the image they project in the national media when they are in front of the camera's.
I didn't see them nominated for the Walter Peyton Man of The Year award, but hey I didn't know anything about the guy who won that either, only "what I saw on TV" when the camera's were on him.

But on that note, hell he may kick his dog and beat his wife off camera, who knows.

I don't tend to prop up players for their community service and their gracious nature because I'm smart. I know it is by design. Tax stuff you know? I doubt most would be so benevolent without 7 figure salaries. It is what it is. I'm sure you're aware.

But it's why I DO like guys like Roman Harper. He gives me a 'for real' vibe where frankly most others just don't.

And let me also say I will teach my son to have more respect for his fellow humans than to walk around with his pants tied off just below his azz, regardless of whether or not he is covering up said azz with boxers, basketball shorts, or a tattoo of the rebel flag. And my daughter will wear clothes that don't cause men to think she's easy. I will teach them that respect isn't a given - you earn it with your behavior. Bet on that sir.

But that's just me, and I'm prepared to agree to disagree, but you know, you don't HAVE to pull your pants up Rez. Go ahead and go to work with them tied off below your azz and see how 'the man' reacts. Because after all, all this 'dress respectably' stuff is just another case of the man keeping you down, right?

Baloney! And what "hood" is that? You do far more damage to the "hood" by the phony BS persona you & your perceived buddies represent than any good you & your perceived buddies think you accomplish ... you crack me up, ... I wish you lived in my neighborhood, the 'real brothers' would jack you up quicker than sh!t, .
