Richard Sherman Turns Into Booker T

It was like something out of an old WCW or WWF/WWE Monday Night Raw. Richard Sherman had just broken up a pass to seal the NFC Championship for the Seattle Seahawks. He starts talking smack to Michael Crabtree of the 49ers, as the two presumably don't like each other much. Erin Andrews goes over for a post-game interview and Sherman morphs into former pro wrestler Booker T, as Andrews looks like she just stumbled into the middle of Compton circa 1992 while Sherman angrily rips Crabtree.

  

It will go down as one of the most memorable post-game interviews ever. It's also safe to say not many neutral fans may be cheering for the Seahawks to beat the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII from Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. Sherman was just caught up in the heat of the moment though in the few minutes after his clash with Crabtree. Anyone else would have been just as fired up with their adrenaline still pumping.

The Broncos beat the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship. Patriots coach Bill Belichick called Wes Welker's block on Aqib Talib "one of the worst plays I've seen" and "deliberate". Maybe so, but the hit looked technically legal by NFL rule though, it happened while the ball was in play right nearby, not after it was already gone. By the way, it was also deliberate to spy on opponents to gain an advantage in the Super Bowl. Funny that the Patriots haven't won a Super Bowl since getting caught with Spygate, basically becoming the 1990s Buffalo Bills since then.

Peyton Bowl 2012

The Denver Post reports Peyton Manning will visit the Denver Broncos then the Arizona Cardinals and then the Miami Dolphins. He wants to make his choice by Tuesday. There is still time for other teams to get involved, such as Houston or Kansas City. Houston would probably be the favorite, though they would have to cast aside a solid young QB in Matt Schaub and hope Peyton stays healthy. Not the smartest move.

Word is Denver, trying to replace Tim Tebow, will set the bar and the Cardinals and Dolphins will without a doubt offer more money. The Dolphins will probably offer the most. The Broncos would have to make a really outstanding pitch to Manning in order to beat out Arizona or Miami. If the Texans come in and drop Schaub, you have to think he will go to the Texans if they get involved. Right now, they are not involved.

Fun fact: Dolphins legend Dan Marino, #13, retired on March 13, 2000. Peyton Manning wants to make his decision on March 13, 2012...Dolphins fans can either have a great day or March 13 could be one of the worst days in team history for the second time. Of course, he could wait until after Tuesday as well.

Also, Reggie Wayne has been recruiting Peyton Manning to sign with the Dolphins along with himself, so they can both retire in Wayne's hometown of Miami. We'll know next week. If the Dolphins don't get Manning, you will find me listening to those sad Sarah McLachlan songs over and over while sitting in the fetal position.
