Those are the only sport related interviews worth watching. The awkward moment when they have to interview the losing coach can also be entertaining. Did anyone else fear for Pam Olivers life? I swear it looked like Harbaugh was trying to choke her out with his mind a la Darth Vader.

You come up with some good ones!

Exactly. It doesn't make sense.

And then, well, I find myself yelling at the TV, and that's just embarrassing.

Adios America! down the drain.

During the game, to ensure that the risk of an NFL player not talking smack, every player's mouth will be tape shut. The special tape will be developed by some mediocre company that also designs today's helmets. Also, players will be banned from having any social media account. The punishment, although extreme, will be death as wished upon by a certain someone in here

That oughtta fix America!

Haha now Sherman is still talking in his post game presser. He made it a point to call Crabtree a mediocre receiver every chance he got.

Let me guess, you want to put everyone that doesn't share your world view on an island and nuke it until it glows? If the people that longed for the mythical good ol days of America had their way there would be a lot of radioactive islands out there.

Andrews missed her chance, that was a perfect time to throw out a "lighten up, Francis."

Any news on Bowman? That looked similar to how AD's knee bent, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a multi-ligament tear. Hopefully it isn't as bad as it looked.

"Coach Jim Harbaugh said after game that the preliminary diagnosis was a torn ACL"

Bowman is feared to have torn ACL. PUP list for sure for next year. Guy is a stud

Iupati has broken ankle.

I like trash talk and I know the emotions were high, but Sherman was classless. Anytime you see 49ers beat a team you see guys like Willis or Davis say "They're a great team" even though they might have blood with them. Cliches can get old but Sherman just made himself into a villain.

What's the difference between what he did and what Kaepernick did mocking Cam Newton?

But it's acceptable for Kaepernick to mock Cam Newton and Kaepernick was very "classy" in his post game press conference

Richard Sherman - DB - Seahawks

Richard Sherman's brother says Michael Crabtree tried to start a fight with Sherman during a charity event last summer.

The 49ers threw at Sherman twice on Sunday, once being the memorable play that saw the All-Pro corner break up a potential game-winning pass intended for Crabtree with 22 seconds remaining. After that, things got ugly. Sherman drew a penalty flag for giving the choke sign to Crabtree and called the receiver mediocre in various post-game rants. The antics have become standard for Sherman, but apparently there's some personal history here dating back to Larry Fitzgerald's charity event. After that offseason dust-up, Sherman vowed to "make a play and embarrass him."

So his brother told the Seattle Times this story? Oh, ok.

Good article written by Sherman on the interview/Crabtree/etc.

‘To Those Who Would Call Me a Thug or Worse …’
I show passion on the football field—but that’s only a small part of who I am. If you want to judge me, I can handle it.

To those who would call me a thug or worse because I show passion on a football field—don’t judge a person’s character by what they do between the lines. Judge a man by what he does off the field, what he does for his community, what he does for his family.

I don't know about a "thug" but he is seriously deluded. I saw that play. It looked pretty obvious to me. If he thought that was a BS call, what have the refs been letting him get away with??!!!

Even on the play he made (last play of the game, which provoked his celebratory antics and outburst) I thought he had questionable contact w/ Crabtree. If it hadn't been the playoffs he might have been called for it.
