THIS!! And that goes for any football team. The Team takes on the personality of their coach and Tomsula is a clown way in over his head and it shows every game.

Niners and Cowboys players were always cordial to each other after their games in the 90s. Let's not read too much into this. Honestly, the emotional "hate" for a rival team should be left to the fans, IMO.
Post game confrontations are for High School and College players, hopefully the NFL players are too grown up for that crap.

Yeah it was real cordial when Richard Sherman was talking s**t about our team/mediocre receiver (even thoigh he was right) and signaling choke signs at Kap and the rest of the team.

The Seahawks dont care because they own us and they know it so theyre happy. Our team is a bunch of guys who know theyre on a sinking ship..but they get nice fat checks anyway. I bet if this "rivalry" was a bit more even and we were fighting for something that mattered the Seahawks wouldnt be so buddy buddy after games.

It's not the WWE. The games arent scripted. And I do have a problem with the postgame lovefest, as recent history reminds us that Seattle's players sure went a long way to take cheap shots at us every time they beat us these past few years. They're all BFFs now because we're the little loser brother they feel sorry for.

There was an interview with Michael Jordan a while back on ESPN. The question was what he thought about Melo, Lebron, Wade, CP3, Durrant hanging out together at a restaurant/ club. And Jordan said something along the lines of that during his hayday, he didn't want to hang out and get all chummy with his competitors eg Magic, Bird because they were the enemy. He felt that players had gotten soft in the current league.

I have no problem with sportsmanship, but I do have a problem with getting ass raped on national tv, then watching our guys take pictures with the opposition with smiles on their faces. This against the team whose idea of "sportsmanship" a couple years back was to make choking signs and call our players garbage and mediocre.

Sorry buddy, doesn't fly with me.

Somebody posted on here that there was a death in the family for Boldin.And also Brooks was his first game back after he lost his sister. End of the day they are humans like me and you.
Half these guys are friends off the field and the other half wasn't around for the rivalry games. Besides I'm sure both teams are extremely disappointed at this season's outcome, no need to hate on each other.
Ted Robinson shared the same thing this morning on KNBR. I was just as surprised to hear him react as he was to see this post game camaraderie.

It's called weak. This team oozes it.

All I noticed were Seahawks players yuking it up with the NFL Network crew on our field after a brutle loss. It was Thanksgiving Redux...

Oh, you have to listen carefully, it might take a couple of tries. But if you listen carefully you can hear one of the Seahawks ask as he's walking up to the interview table,"Wait, what do you mean there's no turkey leg!" Not sure if it was Sherman that said it.

After the game, all the hugs and smiles between Niner and Hawk players.......far from a rivalry game.

Don't know how to respond to that........cry maybe?

Seahawks feel pity for us now. Not even worth trash talking.

Yep, this!
Yeah i noticed that.. Whole team prancing around smiling and giggling like that loss was nothing.. They just didn't care or show it..
And while i don't expect them to chuck a tantrum and not shake hands with the opposition I expect my team to at least show the loss bothered them a little bit.. Show that they have some pride in wearing the uniform.. Not walk around smiling and giggling like it was nothing..
