the sports reporter now blaming erin andrews. >> final play, take me through it. >> i'm in best in theyou try me a receiver like crabtree that is what you're are going to get. don't you ever talk about me. >> who was talking about you. >> crabtree, don't you open your mouth or i'll shut it for you. >> and joe, back over to you. >> and kevin comes with this piece saying her reaction was more about her than him. it was drama queenish, and she should have been a little bit more composed. what? >> she was composed. she asked him a question, he gave an emotional answer, she threw it back to the anchor, what else was she supposed to do. >> i know nothing about football, so this whole under score -- >> she said who was talking about you. >> he said who was talking about you, he wants her to be more composed saying she was a drama queen. >> i was completely impressed. i liked the exchange. these two should get a morning show. and regis and kathy lee, but with more intensity. >> now that we know what he alleged about her being a drama queen, she needed to be more composed. watch it. >> final pl

and then the reaction from erin andrews was priceless getting back to him like really? serious?> you know they are married now? >> perfect. worked out well. >> it did work out well. andy, please give a fair and balanced take on this story without the balance. >> absolutely. let me start by doing this. a couple of things, first richard sherman is the best corner back in the league. pretty nifty for a fifth round braft pick. he got straight a's and was the first to get a scholarship at stanford. this guy is smart. third, he knew what he was doing. he didn't curse and he didn't stumble over his words. he did this on purpose. fourthly, a lot of the negative response has to do with race, and it would be silly to pretend it doesn't. if a white player had done that he would have been praised for his fire and competitiveness. my seattle seahawks will win the super bowl, lob! >> by the way it is fourth and not fourthly. >> i like fourthly. >> i just -- i was wondering. have i never heard anybody go that far? >> people do three things and are scared to do the fourth. i am not. >> it is li

. >> when erin andrews talked to sherman on the slibs, he was still hot. >> i'm the best one in the game you try me with authority receiver like crabtree. that's the results you are going to get. don't you ever talk about me. >> who was talking about you? >> crabtree. don't you open your mouth about the best. stand up for you real quick. >> sherman's rant triggered an explosion on twitter other social media sites where some people called him the "n" word and blitzed the nfl star with racist comments. >> i was watching the game. i thought what sherman did was rude and inappropriate in the moment but, man, on twitter, he was called a lot of n word tweets but also i hesitate to repeat this on the air, jungle monkey, gorilla. should be shot. i was stunned. >> nothing new on twitter. things like this happen maybe not to this extent. i remember the coe of twitter did an interview with matt lauer in which he sat down and said i want twitter to be a town hall for people. and it's not a town hall sometimes. it's assess pool. >> fine to criticize him because i have never seen a post game interview

fox sports reporter erin andrews didn't even know initially who sherman was talking about. the look is priceless. that made rush limbaugh think about a certain someone in the white house. >> richard sherman thinks that everybody knows. that he's got something going on with michael crabtree of the 49ers, and nobody knows. i'm sure obama, at the end of the day, thinks the whole country is thinking about him every day. some people are so lost in their egos that they really do think that everybody is fascinated with what they're doing and knows intimately everything going on in their live. >> all right, anyone at this table know that feeling? who wants to be the first to raise your hand? was that the first thing that came to your mind? what is going on to make this connection with obama? >> no, i love rush, but i think he's a little off on just this one here. here's what happened. sherman, there was trash talking going back and forth all week. sherman, that game right there is one inch away from being a 49er win. one inch. sherman tipped it with the tip of his hand. >> 48er. >>

was it for the erin andrews interview or was it for this the choke sign that he gave to colin kaepernick to me i'm going to charge you 8 grand just like the nfl did. no, i'm kidding. it is for the choke sign. you can't get fined for what you say in the interview, certainly not for taunting. was the nfl thrilled with the fact that sherman went and followed crabtree after the play? yes, he stuck out his hand and said hell of a game hell of a game. but crabtree certainly took it as him being taunted. that's not why he was find. he was find because after that he also stuck up his hands in the choke sign at colin kaepernick, the san francisco quarterback to intimate that of course he had choked on what would have been the game-winning play. what's interesting about that, sherman said he was inspired in that by reggie miller who of course gave the famous choke sign at madison square garden to spike lee. i worked with reggie on a tnt basketball broadcast earlier this week. he told me richard sherman has shot up to his number one nfl player. >> he shot up for a lot of people, too. some look at h

but compared to what we saw with sherman, from the seattle seahawks, the guy that was talking to erin andrewsent off on a tirade, i'm the best, i -- >> the final play, take me through it. >> i'm the best in the game. when you pair me with crabtree, that's the result you're going to get. don't you ever talk about me. >> no one's talking about you. >> don't you open your mouth or i'll stand up for you real quick. >> all right, before -- >> guys, the testosterone gets flowing in these competitions, does it not? and we're too thin skinned like -- no one has seen two birds fly. and. >> you have to look at what happened with sherman before that, there was an altercation on the field. i've been in the huddle this is a game of men going after each other, testosterone is flying. it was a bad moment for him. >> should we be holding them to a higher standard or be more forgiving? >> i agree with dave on this one. there's a golf tournament incident between the two, there's a lot of issues they took out on the football field. >> how about the poor dutch guy, he lost twice in a row to this you. >> they're

. >>> all right, kids making fun of richard sherman's meltdown after the game with erin andrews., lou holtz is with us, what was your reaction to that interview, if you want to call it that? >> well, when is first saw it, i had great respect for richard sherman, what he accomplished. number one, he went to stanford, and had to have good morals. however, he violated three basic rules, rule number one, if you're any good, you wouldn't have to tell people. if you have to tell people you're good, they will tell you when you're good. rule number two, it is when you receive recognition, somebody gave you the opportunity to do something. he made a great play and saved the game. but that is because ten other guys on the seattle football team did what they were supposed to do. rule number three, it is important, show respect for the other people. michael crabtree, i felt so bad for, one of the best receiver news the nfl, an individual that has been injured. i just think when you show respect. when i was on the sideline, i knew how much the other coaches worked, were away from their family

here's some of what he told erin andrews. >> i'm the best coroner the game.you try me with a sorry receiver like crabtree, that's the results you going to get. don't you ever talk about me! >> who was talking about you? >> crabtree. don't you open your mouth about the best. or i'm going to shut it for you real quick! >> before -- and joe, back over to you. >> the seahawks' richard sherman sunday night caught up in the excitement of the game. that led to a number of twitter comments, one calling him a street thug. another saying, proficient that you can go to stanford and still be a thug. andre iguodala of the golden state warriors wrote, we just got set back 500 years. sherman, who was a communications major, said he was mature and regrets those words. >> we've seen this, we've seen deion sanders and terrell owens and you can go much further back, michael jordan, muhammad ali, we've seen guys get excited in the moment. but what interested me what happened to you was the reaction afterward, the way it mushroomed and the fact that race so quickly became involve

sherman was understandably fired up when fox sports' erin andrews caught up with him seconds after the the game. when you try me with a sorry receiver like crabtree, that's the results you're going get. don't you ever talk about me. >> who was talking about you? >> crabtree. don't you open your mouth about the best. i'll understand it for you real quick, l-o-b. >> those remarks sent richard sherman trending worldwide. a lot of the response was shockingly hateful and downright racist. people called sherman a thug, a monkey, and many used racial slurs. richard sherman is a 25-year-old stanford graduate who majored in communications. he just made the play of his life on the biggest stage of his career. sherman didn't use any profanity whatsoever. he just maybe wasn't as polite as maybe some people expected. not low volume. in a postgame, sometimes we get a lot of pablum. we got some real passion from this guy last night. man, this is the biggest play this guy ever made. i'm sitting at home watching this thing thinking no, no, no f-bomb, be cool, be good. he didn't swear. i mean, in the he

erin andrews obviously wasn't prepared for it if it was me, i would have kept it going. i would have loved it. but i don't seening he said. he ripped michael crabtree. that's great. players do that all the time. i don't know what's over the line in what we do in television. >> i simply want to see humility. i think we want to see humility. i think we want to see people who we like to see compete and achieve excellence be humble, be gracious, be courteous. tom brady said it today we try to win and be gracious. he has gotten in tom brady's face. if you can't get along with him as a competitor i don't know had you ho you can get along with. it was so jarring and so unnecessary. here is a guy making an achievement of a lifetime. really he? is going to start screaming at michael crabtree. he already showed up. he already won the game. >> where does it play in his eyes. there is is is a few seconds before the game ended or as it was ending, there is a picture where sherman is extending his hand out to crabtree and crabtree looks like he is hitting him in the head a little bit.

it's when reporter erin andrews asked him to describe the last play. niner wide receiver fired back. here is what crabtree responded with. he said the film don't lie. nfl, network, espn pull the tape show me where this guy is the best. so russell is a class acts. sherman on the other hand, if he played baseball would get a high and tight fast ball. emotions running high this morning. >> the stories we're following right now some passengers aboard the asiana flight filed a lawsuit against boeing. the suit claimed negligence. the suit said boeing should have known it had inadequate auto pilot control. the suit says boeing also should have known the airline's pilots were improperly trained. >>> the city of san francisco is being rescued from paying the cost of staging the bat kid fantasy. philanthropist, john and marsha goldman are picking up the city's entire tab, $105,000 is what the city paid for allowing 5-year-old mile scott to fight villains. miles has leukemia and his wish to conquer came true in november. the make a wish foundation organized it an

. >> and erin andrews seemed to be perfectly fine with the interview and she thought the emotion was great. i guess entertainment value, boy, did they get it. >>> wusa9, your place to watch the grammys this sunday, a lot of unexpected things from that as well. after the break we'll look at the favorites in the most popular categories. >> plus is he stronger than the storm? new jersey governor chris christie explains why his recent controversy may actually help him run for president. >> reporter: it's all about getting out the vote for a special election to determine the balance of power in the virginia state senate. i'm peggy fox in sterling. i'll tell you what they're doing about the appr >>> we have issued a red alert for tomorrow and why not? winter storm warnings cover the entire metro area from the mountains to the case. it's not going to be a case where you'll have snow north and west and rain south and east. this is a snow event for everybody, even you folks in la plata, calvert can, pure snow event, dry fluffy -- calvert county, pure snow event, dry fluffy snow. slippery in t
