Erin Andrews may have had her share of crazy antics from football players as a Fox Sports reporter but the 35-year-old journalist was still taken aback when Richard Sherman started a screaming tirade about another player in the middle of his interview.
Seattle Seahawks' Richard Sherman went ballistic on Erin Andrews shortly after winning the NFC championship on Sunday night, losing it completely when she asked him to say a few words after the Seattle-Seahawks-San Francisco 49ers game.
As Andrews approached the Seahawks' player for an interview, Sherman immediately started showing apprehension and grumbling angrily against a player from the opposing team, Michael Crabtree.
"I'm the best corner in the game!," the footballer screamed at Andrews (and then the camera). "When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree, that's the result you're going to get. Don't you ever talk about me. Don't you open your mouth about the best, or I'll shut it for you real quick."
"Who was talking about you?," the Fox sportscaster said in the midst of his tirade, attempting to diffuse the situation.
Sherman, however, ignored Andrews as though she wasn't even talking and continued screaming, completely talking over the 35-year-old reporter.
Before Sherman's big rant, the Seattle Seahawks player ran over to Michael Crabtree once the game was over, slapped him right on the butt and got in the 49ers player's face.
Crabtree shoved Sherman away, riling up the Seahawks player even more.
Despite Sherman's crazy snap-off, Erin Andrews handled the tension-filled situation like a true professional.
After the game, Andrews tweeted, "Richard Sherman gave a candid response seconds after an emotional game..looking forward to a great Super Bowl matchup."
