Examples of sherman in a Sentence

  1. Trooper Entertainment -RRB- Fanciulli:

    One always blamed the other, if you talked to Sherman McCrary, Sherman McCrary would say it was Carl who was the main guy while he was just along for the ride. But if you talked to Carl, it was the opposite. But I never really heard any kind of remorse. There was a lot of bragging, sidestepping and excuses. But there was never a moment of ‘ I ’m sorry, I do n’t know what came over me, I feel bad for the families and the victims. ’ There was never anything like that.

  2. Sally Hubbard:

    Nothing in Sherman Act Section 1, or Section 2, or the Clayton Act says anything about prices or consumer welfare.

  3. Aubrey McClendon:

    The charge that has been filed against me today is wrong and unprecedented, i have been singled out as the only person in the oil and gas industry in over 110 years since the Sherman Act became law to have been accused of this crime in relation to joint bidding on leasehold.

  4. Donald Trump:

    You've got to be pretty careful with the tanks because the roads have a tendency not to like to carry heavy tanks so we have to put them in certain areas but we have the brand new Sherman tanks and we have the brand new Abrams tanks.

  5. Richard Sherman:

    Adams, who caught two touchdowns and had a franchise playoff-record 160 yards in a win over the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday in the NFC divisional round, now must face one of the top defenses in the NFL and one of the leagues best cornerbacks. Well, I mean, it doesnt change, really, Adams said on facing Richard Sherman. Hes definitely a great player, and people have said a lot about whether hes fell off or what not and I dont see that. I see that hes still the same guy, still making plays. Shermans 35 interceptions since entering the league in 2011 are the most among active players during that span. The 31-year-old is looking to make his third Super Bowl appearance after being one of the key parts to the Seahawks back-to-back Super Bowl appearances in the 2013 and 2014 seasons. Though Shermans resume is longer than Adams, the respect between the two is mutual. Hes very good at beating man coverage.
