Yeah so you named 5 people, I only knew of 2. So you named 3 more.

So 5 people off the top off your head, so that's half the league now? You know how many people are in the league right? Did you fail math? Smoke too much? Or just have bad parenting?

I got no reason to be mad about Seattle. They want to be where my team is. They want the success we have had. They want Pete Carrol to not call that timeout so they could beat Atlanta.

So in retrospect when we look at the original article, and the actual transcript, its obvious Sherman got duped into providing a quote for the writer.

Re read the original article again, sherman has one paragraph. Take out his paragraph, the rest of the story is the POV of the writer. Sherman's quote provides the article credibility. It takes it from an "opinion" piece to a "description of life in the NFL."

“About half the league takes it and the league has to allow it," Sherman said of Adderall use in the NFL. "The league made a mistake in my case. Obviously, I didn’t do anything, but you have to go through a process to prove you didn’t do anything. There are still naysayers out there who don’t believe me. But I accept it. If everybody loves you, it probably means you’re not much of a player."

compared to

Sherman: “Not really. It was what it was. I think the league made a mistake. Obviously, they cleaned up their mistake by repealing . . . repealing? . . . taking it away. That’s what it was to me. Obviously, I didn’t do anything. But you have to go through the process to prove you didn’t do anything. Once the process played itself out, it ended up being true.”

Beamish: “There are players who actually have to take Adderall, because people have ADD and ADHD.”

Sherman: “There’s about half the league that takes it, and the league has to allow it.”

Beamish: “It’s like you have a prescription, if you’re a diabetic.”

Sherman: “Exactly.”

Beamish: “So, are you on any medication that way?”

Sherman: “I’m not. But there are players that took it. We all got tested on the same day. There was kind of a little mix-up with that.”

Beamish: “So, it’s not like you’re flying around all the time and you have to take it in the morning. Did it embarrass you? You seem like a
guy who’s good with people. You’re very good with public relations. Even though you were absolved of it, it still kind of hangs with you. Does it bother you that way?”

Sherman: “Not at all. In the NFL, you always have people who don’t like you for any given reason. If you do anything well . . . If you’re the president, if you’re anybody of importance or with any kind of fame or notoriety, there are going to be a lot of people who don’t like what you do, who don’t support you. And you have to embrace it. You have to almost accept that there’s going to be naysayers for everything. If everybody says ‘I love you’ you’re probably not doing much.”

Says the man with low enough self-esteem to use a quote about himself as his signature.

E-validation, e-reputation the hallmark of a nobody.

Breh, @Jutt never said it was half the league like Sherman, he just disproved your accusation that Browner and Sherman were the only ones.

He claims to be so dfukkin smart, but failed at comprehending what was being said.

Thinking I accused those 2 of being the only ones is just a lack of reading comprehension.

I said they're the only 2 I know of off hand.

Dude named 3 more.

I didn't say there wasn't anyone else, I said I only knew of 2. And the real idiot here is Sherman for saying something like this.

You take adderall because you are **actually** stupid? :what:

"Let me break it down for you again." -- L. Hill
  • better mental focus --> faster reaction time, quicker reflexes, increased confidence / delusions of grandeur
  • increased metabolism --> jump higher, run faster, exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen quicker than the NON-stimulated competition

It is morning, and I need an omelette. Did NBA playoffs start while I was stuck in depositions? :fight: FML

Again, speaking as someone who uses it I don't experience quicker reflexes, faster reaction time, or delusions of grandeur.

I also had no idea that an increased metabolism increases athletic ability to make one jump higher and run faster but I'll take your word for it. :beli:
