Since when is trash talking classless? It has been is part of the game for decades. It’s now just in front of our faces with all these twitter posts. Annoying yes, especially if it’s not your team. But classless, nope. Not classless because you don’t like it.

Such fan sensitivity for a sport built for tough men. If Sherman were to only praise him, he would be put down for being soft. And you all know it.

I think Sherman is angling for a trade to the Jets.

I don’t know if Megatron is gonna do anything. I’m a huge believer of the Madden curse.

Wow. Never seen so many conflicting posts all be right.

Goofy to nickname yourself.
Dum that Calvin needs this motivation.
Relax! The guy is just having fun.
Why motivate the sleeping dog?

@trollhammer20

Living up to your name I see. Yeah, you have it right, Calvin was pacing around the training room having a panic attack from anxiety because he just HAD to “look to the media for motivation”, and it wasn’t there until Sherman’s quote. Or its the fact that ANY competitive athlete, especially the great ones, get fired up when they feel any sort of perceived slight from an opponent. CJ was gonna bring it next game like he always does, no matter if anyone said something or not.

I’m a Lions fan, but I thought Tillman was given the Optimus Prime nickname after Monday night. Sherman is a little late.

If there’s ever a time for Megatron to break out it’s now. Would love to shut up this loud classless fool and his stupid coach.

At least Holmgren was a winner. These guys are haven’t done squat!

He changed his Twitter name as a joke?! WHAT A CLASSLESS MONSTER!

Gah. Lighten up. Sherman may talk a lot, but he’s still light-years away from Ndamukong Suh territory.

I’m glad Sherman did it. With any luck, Titus Young will change his Twitter name to Starscream and Brandon Browner will change his to Smokescreen. Earl Thomas could be Bumblebee. I mean…I don’t see why anyone would be against this.

Now we know why Sherman has such a problem with “bullies”. He goes out of his way to antagonize the bigger kids on the block.

You’re getting paid how much to play football, and you have to look to the media for motivation?

That’s almost as sad as not catching a TD pass from your starting QB six games into the season.

I’m a bit disappointed that you know the plot and characters so well, Alpo.

You’ve just messed up and turned Megatron into Galvatron

It’s still a game. Quit being hurt that Sherman is having fun. If it was you playing a quick pickup game, you’d do the same thing and people would laugh and keep it moving.

I guess the No Fun League extends to the fans too sometimes, lol

The clown behavior starts from the very top..aka Pete Carroll. So we don’t expect anything less from a Seahawk.

Most classless organization in the NFL.

==================================

If you think this is classless, you must be a very sensitive person. Also Sherman was Jim Harbaugh’s player first.

Also how was the twitter name Optimus Prime not already taken?

Sad when you need to give yourself a nick name.

Whether Sherman says anything or not Calvin should be motivated to play this game. What is he gonna play halfassed if Sherman doesnt change his name but now hes gonna give areal effort? Doesnt matter
just play the game.
