Zirin, Dave. 2014. Richard Sherman defends his dirt. The Nation (April 3): http://www.thenation.com/blog/179183/richard-sherman-defends-his-dirt .

The NFL traffics in rank hypocrisy often without consequence. Profess concern about head injuries, while demanding an eighteen-game season? Decry racial slurs while profiting off of a team called the Redskins? Say you are role models while ignoring domestic violence? Profit from publicly funded stadiums while maintaining nonprofit status? This is Roger Goodell’s shield and you can smell the rot from outer space.
