What do you think about players like Richard Sherman who apparently "talk too much"?

I don't have any problem with players who talk trash. In my opinion, that's part of what makes football exciting. Can you imagine how boring every interview would be if all we ever heard was "We were just playing Seahawks football", "[Random Player from the opposing team] is really talented", etc.? That's literally how nearly every single post-game interview goes, and I find it refreshing when I see a player being completely upfront and honest about what he thinks about a certain opponent.

The only time I think players should keep their mouths shut is when the player they're trying to trash talk is clearly superior to them.

    I only wish those players would talk when they're on the losing side. Like Richard Sherman after losing the Super Bowl (and when he trash talked Revis during the Super Bowl to the camera). It's even worse when you call yourself the best and call your opponent "a sorry receiver". You only make yourselves hated by the other 31 teams and you make yourself an easy target when you fail.

    Honestly, I like it. It fires up the team, it gets the team to rally around that one player to back up his statements. And plus, there's nothing wrong with a little bit of trash talk, just as long as if you can back it up, which people like Sherman, Joey Porter, Terrell Suggs, have.

    All those boring interviews are in the name of "professionalism" and often done to keep opposing teams from getting bulletin material. I personally like a dose of reality here and there.

    The only talkers I ever acknowledged were guys who would bee ess between plays. One rival had a guy who would keep the same conversation going from year to year. We would try to kill each other while the play was going on and then were friends again. It was like the coyote and sheepdog in the old Warner Bros Loony Toons.

    The small intestine of the human digestive tract has a main function in final digestion of fats. It also helps in reabsorption of nutrients that have not previously been reabsorbed. I hope this helps and is relevant to your question. Go with god my good woman.
