Yeah i would agree with this... Maybe it is because i'm constantly around arrogant people and have been around them most my life. They don't bother me because i love to watch them fall from there high horse :)

You're missing the point. Its different with Hamilton because McLaren raised him and taught him everything he knows, and to just piss that away and go to another team just because you cant wait another year is greed.
Yes they sponsored him. Do you think theyd have thougt twice about dropping him if he didnt measure up?? It was a two way business deal with each hoping to gain and each looking out for themselves.
Greed?? It was ambition confidence in his own abilities. He would have driven for nothing. You mistake what drives him. Money is secondary.

You're a fool if you believe that. Ron Dennis treated Hamilton like a son. A family, let's be honest about it, is just a means for children to safely grow up. When you're independent enough, you just don't completely disappear on your family. You still rely on one another. Hamilton has a debt of gratitude to McLaren. He should fulfill it.

Also, the point is being missed here about Hamilton's lies. He does not need to churn the old "McLaren forever" stuff out, for we know it's not true!

Going under McLaren's nose to sign a contract William's is not looking out for McLaren.

If I'd had the same opportunities in life as Lewis and had the same career to date, I'd be 10x cockier than he is. He believes he's better than everyone else on the track . . . and why shouldn't he?!! He's young and extremely talented so yeah he's arrogant, especially after the last two races were he was a step above everyone else in the field!
