It's in the standard contract. That's life. Sherman's little show does not change the fact that the source of his big new contract is because the NFL makes big money from the networks covering them and the CBA requires players to be available to the media.

Don't like it, make it a negotiation point for the next CBA. In the meantime, his bit was just silly.
