Before: “Golden Tate is a mediocre receiver at best..."

"Don’t you ever talk about me, Golden Tate!”

The practices leading up to the Super Bowl are largely just to keep players sharp, not really to learn anything too ground breaking. So, naturally, Richard Sherman will have to continue to stay sharp on his postgame trash talk, after he goes up against his own receivers in practice.

Before: “I apologize to Golden Tate…”

"I do charity work.”

Of course, he’ll need to keep his publicist on the ball as well, in case of another outburst.

"I’ll be live tweeting the Super Bowl."

Sherman’s social media followers are growing exponentially, and it’s important for him to take advantage of that.

Justin Verlander tweeted that if Sherman was in MLB, he would get a high and tight fastball. Here’s the rest of Sherman’s potential quote:

“But for real, tell Kate Upton that I’m the best pitcher in the league. But don’t be a funny man, and just say I’m the best pitcher in the league because then she won’t know... just make sure you say Richard Sherman is the best pitcher in the league. Ok? We’re cool, right? Follow me on twitter @RSherman_25.”

"He would have gone to Stanford.”

Hard to trash talk Peyton Manning, so the Stanford thing is likely a fall back option.

Again, everyone suffers from jitters early in the game. Even Richard Sherman, and his trash talk.

If a Bronco receiver drops a ball, expect Sherman to compare them to Michael Crabtree.

In response to the heckling he will for sure face from New York fans.

“I mean I hate Michael Crabtree. Well, I just hate wide receivers. And I hate quarterbacks. But I’m not a hater. And I hate Tight Ends.”

“The Broncos are the best, and I need to play with the best.”

After a Win: “My Post Super Bowl Party is at the Manning House…”

Richard Sherman
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

“because I own it. Michael Crabtree is not invited. Neither is Peyton. Eli is cool to come, he gave a lot to the cornerback cause this year.”

After a Win: “I Apologize to Richard Sherman…”

Sherm

“for Apologizing. Don’t ever apologize for being the best.”

After a Win: “Disney World is the best!”

Sherman

If Disney World is smart, they will use Sherman as their “I’m going to Disney World” spokesperson after the Super Bowl. Here’s the rest of the quote:

“I’m going to Disney World! Six Flags is mediocre at best, at best! Am I going to go to Six Flags? That’s a joke, right? I’m going to Disney World, because I’m the best.”
