The Most Arrogant Athletes in History
The next player on our list of the the most arrogant athletes in history is the loud Cornerback of the Seattle Seahawks, Richard Sherman. Sherman has been known for his antics on the field for the past few seasons leading to his label of one of the most arrogant athletes to date. He first got this mark after the 2014 NFC Championship against the San Francisco 49er's in which he grabbed the microphone from one of the ESPN sideline reporters and went off on a rant about the 49er's recievers and how bad they were on National television. After this Sherman was labeled a thug by almost everyone despite the fact that he was a graduate of Stanford University and extremely smart, despite this the label stuck. He kept this reputation due to the fact that during games he is a constant trash talker in between snaps to play mind games with his opponents and keep them angry so their game is thrown off and they can't play due to the anger he puts in them. Some quotes that show Sherman's arrogance is real are "U MAD BRO" followed by a picture of tom brady after defeating them. Another is "I was making sure everyone knew Crabtree was a mediocre receiver. And when you try the best corner in the game with a mediocre receiver, that's what happens. I appreciate that he knows that now." This was a quote of his in his infamous postgame interview in 2014. "What challenge?" this was his answer when asked if a receiver would challange him in an upcoming game. Those are just some things that cement Sherman's place on the most arrogant athletes of all time. Next athlete on our list is the first female to break onto it...
