Not a lot of smack talk between teams, as you'd expect. Both are class organizations with respect for the other team and their ability to get to this point, and not a lot of bombastic personalities.
Of course, after the media commitments for teams was done for the week today, Kaepernick decided to spew sour grapes over Sherman, talking about if he threw the ball a foot further, Sherman would be the goat, and that Sherman was scared of SF receivers, and that Sherman was disrespectful in talking about himself in the interview. Also, Manning was going to easily decimate the Seahawks secondary...this coming from a QB who's lost 3 of 4 games in his career to Seattle and thrown over half of his interceptions this year to Seattle players...and as far as respect goes, a week earlier mocked Newton in the Divisional game.
Broncos are classy, wouldn't say the Seahawks are.
Today Sherman was talking about Manning "throwing up ducks, blah blah", with his usual talking nonsense. Manning handles it with pure class, hard not to root for Peyton, easy to love and cheer for him.
Kaepernick is just sticking up for his receivers. When a guy from an opposing team (rival) goes off on one of your teammates like that after a WIN, you almost have to say something. But at the end of the day its a huge rivalry and thats expected to happen.

To quote what Sherman said before Crabtree pulled his sore loser bull ####.
"Hell of a game, hell of a game."
Yeah, he sure deserved that shove. Crabtree was a whiny bitch and got called out on it by a better player. End of. Let it go.
"Tell [Bowman] I hope he alright." What a classless ####er. I tell ya. 49ers could learn a thing or two from Sherman. Keep the hate on the field. Not at off-season events or after-season radio interviews.
Edit - I appear to be lost. How did I end up in this thread with emotional attachment to a team.

May the GOOD team win on Sunday!
Kaepernick comes off like a whiney baby, but when you consider who his coach is, that hardly surprises. And sticking up for his receivers? How? By throwing them under the bus with this one?
Quote:
“Playmakers Denver has on offense are better than some of the guys in [Seattle's] nickel defense. Opportunity for a lot of big plays,” Kaepernick said. “If the Broncos can get [the Seahawks'] nickel defense out there, they’ll have some great matchups.”
Since the 49ers lost, the implication here is that the 49ers don't have the playmakers to exploit Seattle's defense. Said it before but in the short term at least the 49ers made a mistake dumping Alex Smith for Kaepernick. Based off Kaepernick's immaturity (Being called out by Cam freakin Newton of all people? Ouch) and poor development as a passer, it might be a long term mistake too. Unfortunately for him he doesn't get 16 games against the Packers a year.

How is Kaepernick whiney? Because he sometimes comments about the way flags are thrown during a game? Every player in the league does this. For example, Sherman always complaining when a flag is thrown his way for holding. If Kaep is whiney, everyone is whiney.
Kaepernick >>> Smith and its not close.
Kaep's has played 1.5 SEASONS in the NFL and has gone to the NFC championship and Superbowl. His talent is incredible, he will continue to get better with experience. 49ers made a great decision. I was and still am a big A.Smith fan but sticking with a more talented 25 year old vs. a 31 year old is simple.
Kaepernick simply stating how talented Denver is. And yes they have more weapons that San Fran. More than any in the league. Thomas x2, Decker, Welker is unreal. Not throwing his receivers under the bus whatsoever. Your reaching for nothing here.

If you think Sherman is classy then you have zero basis for any argument.
Sherman goes up to players after the Seahawks win to "congratulate" them. His intentions are to sarcastically rub it in their faces. Crabtree was walking away and Sherman runs up behind him. Hes done this to Tom Brady, Washington Redskins players etc.
i find it funny how we avoid commercials all year except tomorrow
Well in Canada we still have to avoid them. CTV will put on a couple American commercials, but generally we'll see the same crap as we always do. Can't wait to see the commercial of CTV promoting the sporting events they still have (now that hockey is gone) a million times over and over again. Or needing to be reminded of what terrible show they have on after the game.
I don't care about the commercials, they'll be on youtube right after they air if they aren't already there.
I just don't want to miss any more plays while CTV tries to squeeze in the rest of a commercial.

Lol if you don't. C'mon Wise Gamble, this is simple stuff.
Unless you're dealing with a small-time bookie or a middleman for the mob, Las Vegas just wants to make money and with 10% juice they're guaranteed to do that in the long run with divided action.
Sports books in Vegas haven't done well lately but they aren't going to chase losses like a degen trying to make everything back in one fell swoop for the Super Bowl. With the amount of action placed on teh super bowl anyways they'll make their money with sheer volume at +110.
Curious to hear your conspiracy theory.
