Sorry ... I still see it as a taunt from Sherman. Crabtree and his team had just lost, give him some time to cool off and then offer a sincere (which this was not) handshake after the game is officially over - not directly after the play when emotions are still running high.

Then you should see the problem with a sideline babe sticking the mic in front of Sherman as this was transpiring? She wanted controversy and created it.

I’m glad Sherman was mic’ed, the media and its distractors can’t smear him for perceived infractions from this point forward.

I understand and it could have well been meant as a taunt. That is why I said you decide. Yes, there were 22 seconds left, but everyone knew that was it and Wilson would take a knee a couple times and run out the clock. These two knew they were not going to be on the field together again.

In real time, I wondered what in the world this jerk was doing. I appreciate a gracious winner. But it seems that there was more to the story beyond the immediate condemnation.

Good point, even in Hockey the winning team celebrates for a few minutes before the handshakes between the teams.
