Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman sealed a trip to the Super Bowl for his team, and then stole the show and headlines. First he ran over to San Francisco 49ers and got in his face and likely said something that was intended to be rude, cocky and generally inconsiderate. It likely stemmed from Crabtree avoiding saying Sherman was the best cornerback in the league when asked by reporters.

Then, he shoved Sherman in the face. Sherman went on a rant in a post game interview talking all sorts of trash directed at Crabtree like he was cutting a WWE promo. Crabtree wasn’t there to respond, but he did send out one tweet and it is likely to upset Sherman. He continued to claim Sherman wasn’t the best and called him fake in the process.
