[Enter the status updates I saw on Facebook.]
During the NFC finals, someone who is my friend on Facebook vomited a rant (like what I'm doing right now) about how Richard Sherman is a big a-hole for talking trash during his post-game interview. After the Superbowl, where Sherman suffered a broken ankle towards the end of the game, she was happy to see that he was on crutches and thought it was the "Best.Karma.Ever." and that "Sherman getting injured was the best part of the Superbowl!" Both statements were followed by "HAHAHA." I admit, I am mean in my own way but when it comes to athletes being injured, it really bothers me.
Then I unfollowed her. Maybe I'll cut ties the next time I see her comment on some shit. Here are my reasons:
1-It seems to me that she was never an athlete therefore she cannot understand how sports make people emotional. As a former athlete, I sure know that talking trash before, during and
after the game is pretty normal for each sporting event. Some just talk a
little calmer or more discreet than others. LOL
2-I hate it when people wish something bad upon others or rejoice when they see someone they don't like get hurt. I myself have done it when I was younger and didn't know anything better. Nonetheless, I regret doing that. I have been hurt while playing volleyball and had to miss a week of school. Ron has suffered numerous ankle sprains and it is not funny seeing him walk slow or hop around with his one good foot around. My point here is I am righteous in some ways and this is one of them. It is not fun to break any part of your body.
3-When athletes get hurt, there is a possibility of losing their careers, losing what they've worked for all their lives. It is not funny when people get hurt especially when it involves their dreams. imagine having amnesia and forgetting everything you learned from your job experiences or everything you learned in school.
Oh well...
