Sherman Signs Record Deal

I would never argue that. I think he is a fantastic football player. I just don't care for him as a person. He doesn't portray the image I would want my son to look up to, and I think that's a big part of being in the NFL. Ultimately, the fans pay that salary. It's my personal opinion that players have a responsibility to those fans to set a good example.

Personally, i disagree with that. As a fan i'd pay to see a good game and excellent players, i don't care if a player is the worst person of the world as long as he's not "oj simpson" kind of bad, of course. I greatly dislike manziel, and by greatly i mean a lot, but i'd still watch his games if he was electrifying.

And well i'm 24 and have no kids yet thankfully, but i'd never want any kid of mine to look up to any sports player for anything other than how to stay fit (and not even that in some sports, football included).
