In case you haven't noticed by now, Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman is a guy who isn't afraid to speak his mind. But earlier this afternoon, he started a press conference by revealing that he did not write a Black Lives Matter post that was published a few days ago, even though his name was connected to it. He does have some thoughts on Black Lives Matter, though, so he shared them with reporters. And while there are going to be some people who don't like what he had to say—specifically with regards to his thoughts on black-on-black crime—Sherman didn't hold back.
