Yeah, hard to imagine Crabtree immediately smacking his hand away and demanding a duel. Probably stems from some bad beef from their numerous divisional matchups

The short version is there was a tradition at the Stanford dorms where, early on Valentine's Day morning, the guys would bang on the girls' doors, get them all into the common area, give them flowers, and serenade them with a ballad. Sherman's year, it was "I'll Make Love To You," by Boyz II Men. Somehow, this sparked an insufferable undergrad email chain about how the tradition is insulting and heteronormative, which culminated in this:
This is exactly right on most levels, and exactly Richard Sherman on all levels.

Cowher dismisses impact of 'Spygate'

PITTSBURGH -- Bill Cowher has a message for Pittsburgh Steelers fans who think their team was cheated out of a trip to the Super Bowl 10 years ago: Get over it.
The Steelers were drummed by New England, 41-27, in the 2004 AFC Championship Game at Heinz field, a loss that came under suspicion a couple of years later when the Patriots were caught trying to steal signals and formations by illegally videotaping opposing teams.
“We didn’t lose the game because of any 'Spygate,' because of them having any additional things,” Cowher told 93.7 The Fan on Wednesday. “[If] they’re guilty of anything they’re guilty of arrogance because they were told not to do something but it was something everybody does. They got caught doing it with a camera.”
Cowher, who coached the Steelers from 1992-2006, said what the Patriots did happened regularly in the NFL before the league allowed coordinators to relay plays to their quarterback and defensive signal-caller via a helmet radio.
“Stealing someone’s signals was a part of the game and everybody attempted to do that. We had people that always tried to steal signals,” said Cowher, whose 2004 team won 16 consecutive games before losing to the Patriots in the AFC title game. “What happened when we lost that game is they outplayed us. It had nothing to do with stealing signals or cheating or anything else.”
Cowher, an NFL studio analyst for CBS, interviewed Patriots coach Bill Belichick last week, and he said the two talked extensively afterward, the first time they had done so since they were both NFL assistant coaches.
Cowher professed his admiration for Belichick and the sustained success he has enjoyed in the salary-cap era.
The Pittsburgh native also made it clear on Wednesday that he won’t be matching wits against Belichick -- or any other NFL head coach -- anytime soon.
Cowher reiterated that he has “no interest” in returning to the sideline even though his name has been linked to head-coaching vacancies every year since he retired from the Steelers in January 2007.
Cowher, who went 149-90-1 and won a Super Bowl in 15 seasons with the Steelers, acknowledged that he has received his share of inquiries about returning to coaching.
“It’s flattering but it never gets very far,” Cowher said. “If I ever want to get back into coaching I should be calling teams they shouldn’t be calling me. That’s when you know you really want to do it.”

I think they both got overly femotional to be honest. Not impressed at all when a grown man "lashes out" emotionally because somebody did something to him that he doesn't like.
That's feminine. We're supposed to have better control over our emotions than those that harbor vaginas. *shrug*
What he said in the interview was neither clever nor etherous like what an Ali, Deion, or even on a lower scale -- a Mayweather -- would do or say. It was just a dude with pint up emotions (and maybe a few substances) spewing it out. And because it was unorthodox and brash, impressionable nikkas were impressed.
And as for Crabtree. Payback. I knew that bish nikka from way back. He been a homotional, cocky, asshole since Taco Tech. He high steps, shucks and jives when he's balling on you, and then lashes out when the tables are turned.
If anything, what we saw yesterday was a male version of some ghetto reality show confrontation.

It's not about the shit talking with me, players talk shit all the time. That's fine. I just don't like the instigating, games over do your interviews and mind your business. I just wish that was Boldin or Andre Johnson so he could get that Courtland Finnegan treatment. But I do stand by my statement that Peterson and Haden or better. They doing it with less help.

His reaction was seperate from "winning the NFC championship". It was 100% personal, and emotional based on being shunned on national TV by an opposing player.
If Crabtree would've shook his hand - this would be a non issue. Reminds me of when a nikka tries to holla at a broad, she disses him, and suddenly he start poppin' shit about her like she's suddenly the ugliest/wackest bish he ever seen in his life ---- just because he's butthurt.
This reaction was identical with how he handled the Roddy White situation (which he lost in more ways than one) and the Trent Williams situation (which was just a wild card win.) and the Tom Brady situation (which was just a early regular season game.)
The nature of the game had nothing to do with it.

The fact that we pretty much gave the game away last night is gonna fuck with me until the playoffs next year and hopefully Niners are in position (again!! smh) to go to the Super Bowl and win it
Gotta take advantage of these opportunities when your knocking on the door 3 straight years. NFL is too up and down to know if the team can make it back to this point next year.
