He has a point though. It has replaced the N word. And it's always linked to black athletes. Never to actual thugs. People can say whatever they want, Richard Sherman isn't a thug, he is a whiney asshole but not a thug.
I agree. using thug to describe him is stupid. He seemed like an idiot when he went crazy. I was surprised to hear that he went to stanford. But, it seemed to work out good for him…he's in a commercial because of that stupid rant. Americans praise the weirdest people. The more outrageous you act, the more famous you get.
