After video review, Richard Sherman's no-shake-Bake story doesn't hold up

San Francisco 49ers defensive back Richard Sherman called out Cleveland quarterback Baker Mayfield for snubbing him during the pregame handshake during Monday night's game.

"What's amazing, and annoying, was him not shaking hands at the beginning," Sherman said, according to NFL.com. "That's some college s—. It's ridiculous. We're all trying to get psyched up, but shaking hands with your opponent -- that's NFL etiquette. And when you pull bush league stuff, that's disrespectful to the game. And believe me, that's gonna get us fired up."

Absolutely. Civility and sportsmanship have always come first with Richard Sherman.
