Richard Sherman loves talking, and isn’t afraid to respond to the haters, but after winning the Super Bowl on Sunday, he had the best response yet to a Twitter troll or hater.
A user with the Twitter handle @SnBEternally, who has since deleted his or her account, wrote to Sherman after the Seahawks cornerback called Peyton Manning “the Classiest person/player I have ever met!” Apparently the user, whose name was *, didn’t agree, or at least didn’t think Sherman was telling the truth.
* wrote, “Everyone who heard you dissing Manning before knows you don’t mean a damn word of this, you pathetic disingenuous punk.” The user added, “Take your phony praise and shove it up your drugged out a**, you worthless scumbag.” And if that wasn’t enough, he or she continued, writing, “Seattle beat Denver, but you contributed nothing and got carted off with an injury. Karma’s a NASTY b*tch, needle D*ck! :P”
Despite having hundreds of thousands of Twitter followers and thousands of mentions, Richard Sherman found the time to respond in what could quite possibly be the best way ever.
@SnBEternally 🙂 feeling good

Yep, that’s the Lombardi Trophy, the one Sherman helped his team acquire before he had to leave the game with a high ankle sprain. Twitter users generally appreciated the player’s response, with one user calling it “the best reply to a troll in the history of twitter.” While it might not rank number one, it’s definitely up there.
