Primetime taught us how to be confident in ourselves. Quoted as saying 'The first thing people say is don't let the money change you, but personally the money is going to change my address, my phone number, my car, it's going to change my sneakers into gators, and my library card into a credit card'.
When I think of bravado I think of Deion Sanders. While there have been many iconic figures in football in the past 15 to 20 years, who stands out more than Primetime? Swagger is an overused term, but fits Prime in every way possible.

Who is the only athlete in history to have appeared in both the World Series and the Super Bowl? Who is the only pro athlete to hit a homer and score a touchdown in the same week?
Who scored so often he invented his own dance on touchdown runs and didn't even play offense for the most part of his career? Who played another pro sport (Baseball) as a hobby? The answer to all these questions is simple Deion 'Prime Time' Sanders.
