Right here’s a bit of recommendation for skilled athletes. If you happen to’re out having enjoyable doing all your factor and occur to get into some authorized bother in your approach dwelling, be sure it isn’t violent and that it occurs simply earlier than one other star goes viral. This was the case over the weekend for former NFL participant and present FS1 “Undisputed” analyst Richard Sherman, who was reportedly arrested on suspicion of DUI.
On no account is anybody encouraging any criminality, however we stay in a world the place this sort of incident is all too frequent. Information of Sherman’s arrest broke late on Saturday and by Sunday afternoon had been all however forgotten due to Cam Newton’s brawl at a 7-on-7 youth football tournament in Atlanta.
Timing doesn’t get much more impeccable than this. Clearly, Sherman couldn’t have recognized this battle was going to pop off the following day with Newton on the middle of it however, speak about dumb luck. Whereas Sherman’s incident continues to be pending, Newton’s took the main focus fully off his arrest.
This isn’t the primary time Sherman has been caught up in this sort of scenario. In 2022, Sherman pleaded responsible to 2 misdemeanor prices in Seattle which stemmed from a drunken driving and domestic disturbance incident in 2021. Even when Saturday’s infraction finally ends up being near nothing there nonetheless appears to be an unlucky sample. DUIs have the potential to harm not solely the responsible occasion however harmless folks as properly.
After every week off from his FS1 host duties, Sherman was absent from the present Monday morning, which was anticipated after Saturday’s arrest. And for all we all know he might not have been scheduled for the present this morning anyway. Both approach, Sherman apparently wasn’t talked about on Monday’s present.
No matter occurs in the long run, Sherman’s arrest has already been largely forgotten by the plenty and likely hadn’t even heard about it. Having that information come out actually hours earlier than we witnessed Newton rag-dolling a number of males who tried to leap him was much more fascinating than Sherman’s arrest.
That’s simply the reality of the matter. We probably gained’t hear way more of Sherman’s incident till after his scheduled court docket listening to (Monday) to deal with the circumstances of his launch. Sherman received into some bother and lucked right into a corridor cross as a result of some idiots determined they needed to attempt Cam Newton. Life is unusual generally.
