I just got back from grocery shopping at Kroger. I was wearing my Seahawks jacket and have been getting nothing but positive comments for the whole season about the Seahawks from Memphians...until today when the law of averages came into play.
I was at the checkout stand and this guy a little older than me (I'd say around 50) notices me and pipes up "Is the league going to fine Sherman??"
I smiled and said, "Hi. No, they are not going to fine him."
"Well then I hope the Broncos break both of his legs!!" :roll:
I said "Come on, man....you shouldn't wish injury on anyone. That's excessive, don't you think?"
He cowed a little, then said with a smile "Okay....maybe just a little fracture then..just so it takes him out of the game."
I just shook my head and said again, "You shouldn't wish injury on any player, man. Not cool."
The checker and bag boy were both looking at him with this :141847_bnono: look and shaking their heads. He just harrumphed and walked off.
Great example of an uninformed casual fan who saw the interview but is oblivious to the follow up apology, Erin Andrews' support, etc.
Haters gonna hate....but you know what? It still felt kinda cool that he cared enough to hate us for it. It was an altogether new experience to me.
Go Hawks!!!
