I appreciate how you use this platform to show how these are not just athletes playing a game. But people just like you and I trying to cope with the everyday struggles of life. Thank you
Well said.
Agree well said.
💯💯💯💯💯
So what was he? A typical black athlete who had noi responsibility. In spite of income to his puppies/kittens etc etc
@@jamescowan3651 what the hell are you talking about ?
When I was 14 my Dad and I took a road trip to Cincinnati, the city I was born, and went to a Bengals game at PBS (2009). During pregame, a rep from a sponsor for the Bengals selected my dad and I to get on field passes. I was wearing my Cedric Benson jersey that day and while on the field, Ced saw me in the Jersey and made his way over to me to say 'What's Up?' and to thank me for picking his jersey. Just seemed like such a genuine guy and meant a lot to me to get to meet him as a young fan.
Great story bro rest in peace Cedric Benson always liked him
Mack brown said on his last game against Michigan he got his knee injured on the first series. The doc told him it's not worth going back in but he told Mack brown he wanted to play. At the end of the game coach brown said he saw him crying in the corner. He walked up to ced asking if it was knee. Cedric said "no coach, this is my last game wearing this uniform." Forever a longhorn. R.I.P to a true beast.
Hook em. Rip legend!
More than what could be said about Colt!
@@redleader3394 Colt literally couldn't life his arm. He tried to go back into the national championship. I hate this rumor that he just didn't go back based on his own choice
Classic Game. That Started the Legend of Vince Young that would carry in their Undefeated Season and a NC.
RIP Cedric
Couldn't lift his arm? Arm you kidding me? He was on the sideline doing the pump up the crowd shit, both arms moving fine. Him and his dad made a future decision....He has made 18 million off that decision, so it was a good move for him......but he isn't a Texas legend, dude is a quitter, and a shitty pro.
R.I.P Cedric Benson (hookem Longhorns)
R.I.P Chris Henry 🙏🏻
R.I.P Sean Taylor 👌🏻
Last BUT not least, R.I.P Steve McNair. (Titan up)
Don’t forget Pat Tillman!
@@uccghisucks1600 They did Pat so wrong
🤘🤘🤘🤘
Nate Smith McNair died as a ravens right
William Beer yea but majority of his career was with the titans.
Damn, I didn’t even know he died recently.
Great tribute, Flemlo
BringBack JojiVlogs he was killed in a motorcycle accident on Saturday night. He and female. What's so crazy is earlier Saturday evening he posted his motorcycle on Instagram . They say speed and visibility was a factor because he ran into a minivan driver side and the motorcycle burst into flames. People tried to help him and the girl but I think it was too late. I seen one picture of someone with a fire extinguisher spraying it on him or the female. Sad News, May they rest in peace!!!
ME EITHER N IM FROM SOUTH TEXAS BEST RUNNING BACK FROM U. T
Yeah for some reason it is being super under reported.
Alex Bradish it’s being reported you just have too look in them little bars in the black
BringBack JojiVlogs he died the other day...
Brah who tf disliked this? Im a Browns fan, this man torched my team for 3 years and I still will personally take anyone who disliked this to these streets
Reed Naylor cruise it dawg
Everyone has always torched your team.
Reed Naylor of course you will junior
Ravens fan here and he was dope in Cincy
@@pawrestlingchamp False.
I knew him when he was with the Bears, he was a nice dude.... I worked at a gas station and he would stop in, buy stuff and would spend a half hour just talking with me.... Sad news.... Because we would just hang... We're the same age.... We would just talk like normal dudes ... Not only that but the dude would buy like 5 bucks worth of stuff and would tell me to keep the change.....
RIP Ced....
As a Bears fan, the managerial dysfunction is frustrating at times, but stories like this remind me how important good management is for people's happiness. Glad he had the success in Cincy that he did before his career was over. Thanks for the tribute.
Thank you for making this! Always wished he had a longer run with the bears but he was still a great running back!

Jordan Pendley fuck did you just say?
His stay here in Chicago was too long! Only player I wanted gone more was cutler
itscoldinwinter1 yo it’s too soon for that...
Jerk
@@itscoldinwinter1 only a bum would say some dumb shit like tht. Do us all a favor and walk in traffic
One of the first guys I remember tearing it up in college, rip Cedric.
Bro I’m from midland, it’s crazy bro so sad
man I'm from Austin and it's tragic. The young woman recently graduated med school too.
Jacob Valdez yeah bet
Just ummm never did it against Oklahoma.
He seemed like a genuinely good guy. He may not have been perfect but he definitely made an impact wherever he was. RIP Cedric.... run free in the hereafter in grace bro.
Man oh man....Hearts thoughts and prayers...R.I.P. Cedric benson (1982-2019).....
00:00-00:54 is very important and I’m glad you put it at the beginning of the video!
Appreciate this bro. Seems like everyone here in Austin is hurting but still looking back on his greatness.
@floyd schott You must not have been a fan then.
Thank you for your real report on Cedric Benson. He wasn't perfect, but nobody is...
I live in Austin. I saw Cedric around town on a few occasions. He was always a really nice guy. Well respected here. He will be missed. Rest in Peace Brother.😢
Damn I had no idea he died. Rest In Peace bro
Cuckhead McGee it was all of social media but Not all of us use that much
Just heard this news. 😢😭. So sad he was a Good play but a GREAT Person 🧡🖤🐯🏈. YOU DID HIM GREAT JUSTICE FLEMLO AS ALWAYS 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah with all these emojis i feel like you dont know him and is just pretending for likes
Great Tribute Condolences to Cedric Benson family and friends. May he rest in peace..
I'm not a big football fan by any means , but I subscribed because of your great story telling .
He is a great storyteller
Me either. Lol I also came for the story telling
I’m born and Raised in Austin TX.
CB was a local legend.
This is a great video and excellent.
jonnycat529 yeah I live in Tyler where Robert E. Lee is. Everyone was sad when we heard of his passing. A true goat
@Xavian Ramirez then there’s definitely two because Robert E. Lee (which is now Tyler legacy because of a bunch of snowflakes) is in Tyler Texas, East Texas
@Xavian Ramirez ohh my mistake
@@Etx_Chris lol theres like 100 Robert E. Lee high schools in Texas. There was one in San Antonio, they were always the doormat of our district, everyone whupped them and they regularly finished the season 1-9 or 0-10 lol
He was a solid RB. He had some good years in Cincinnati. He was beast at Texas.
his 2004 final season at Texas was a hella squad with Vince Young at qb..Vince got the natty the next year
@@fredball8240 facts, that Vince Young/ Cedric Benson spread option attack was lethal
Rip #32 A True Texas 🤘🏾Legend🇨🇱
I was raised in Midland Texas and played football at the same high school he went to. Cedric was about 6 years behind my class and played with friends and family on the 1st state championship seasons and the National High school Championship season. We all were moved at the news of his unfortunate passing. He definitely was a great young man and awesome running back. He will always be a part of our story of life in Midland. In the end, he was just like most of who come across life troubles and is definitely homegrown story from our community. RIP Cedric. We'll never forget you
Thanks for the story my grandad and dad coached Ced in youth baseball and football in Midland. He was always top athlete on the team I remember as a kid watching him hit HR after HR in little league... another Amazing talent gone to soon! R.I.P Ced
He was amazing at Midland Lee. Broke my heart when he died.
Nice tribute and well delivered as always. Love how you always bring balance to your portrayals. R.I.P. Cedric Benson
As a bears fan, absolutely no hard feelings RIP Cedric. I just recently found your channel. You have a great personality and I think you’re very fair in your videos. Good luck to you.
After viewing numerous of your videos, I realized these athletes are just like everyone else, they battle life struggles like depression, anxiety, addiction, mental health disorders and issues, family issues, body issues ectera. Thank you for humanizing them. We see the glitz and glamour as well as when they run into trouble. Thanks to you we get to see them in a normalized light as well as more relatable. You have excellent story telling abilities. I love the fact you try your best to see the good in the ppl you cover. You literally try to understand their stories and present them to us in a way we can understand from their perspective. You just don't take one perspective and go in on it, you cover all pov's that's what makes you unique and your story telling stands out. Keep it up your doing a phenomenal job!!!
This really means a lot to the UT community thank you!
R.I.P to Mr Benson. Motor Bikes are so dangerous. And i hope everyone atleast takes safety classes. And doesnt ride to fast. Many times i drive my car on highway. Im going like 65-70 mph and this Bikers are going right by me like im going backwards. Easily 80-90mph. I have no clue why bikers go this fast around traffic. Either way. Like Paul Walker atleast he left us doing what he loved. 🙏🙏🙏
Unlike cars, that at least have some kind of protection around you if you get into an accident going that fast you're done, you're road pizza. Lets face it though even in a car going 80-90 mph you are more than likely going to die. Pretty sad that this is how he ends up passing away, you never want to hear something like this happening. RIP Cedric Benson and his passenger as well.
@@debsreno911 This is why i never got on bikes or my cousins. R.I.P to him.
This is exactly why NBA players are banned from it. It was a written clause on Michael Jordan 's contract.
It ruined Bobby Hurley and jay Williams careers 2 Duke basketball legends done just like that
Agreed
I remember when Cedric came into the league as I was just starting to get into football that year. I remember him being called a bust, until he broke out with the Bengals. I can't believe how long ago that was. I also can't believe he is gone from this world. I missed the story of him passing and it's too bad as though he seemed troubled, he seemed like a genuinely good dude. RIP Cedric Benson.
His whole demeanor changed onced he started talking about the bangals
Man I remember him on that bengals team, the cardiac cats, those weeks were fun
I live in Odessa Tx 15 miles from Ceds hometown. He was a great kid at Midland Lee.
FlemLo Raps you the goat, road to 500k i been watch you since 7k subscribers rip cedric i wish I could watch him play.🤞🙏
I just _happened_ to stumble upon your channel while scrolling, and _OMG,_ guy, I _love_ your spot!! Your non-judgmental and "justhafax" approach, is very much appreciated, in a time when so many of us confuse our opinions with truth! Now let me hit up this Patreon thing! LoL💯
ps. You _WILL_ go on to even _greater_ things!
Thank you sooooo much flemlo thank you just thank you CB32
R.i.p ced. I can't believe I went so long without this channel. Sped through all videos in like a week.
I'd like to see the Lawrence Phillips story. Most disappointing running back story EVER.
Not only do I love the story telling skills but what I TRULY LOVE THE MOST IS, ALL THE LIFE LESSONS U EXPLAIN AND DRILL INTO YOUR VIEWERS MINDS (at least u do for me)! U probably won't even read this but if u do, I salute u
Grew up playing in Texas in his Era. He was the one we would get the paper for and look to see what he put up. He was amazing...RIP
Great upload and very good respectful explaination of Benson's career. Peace and blessing to everyone R.I.P. Cedric Benson
Wow for someone I never met it hurt to see Cedric passed. RIP thoughts are with the Benson family.
Thanks once again for helping us understand the Man, and not the legend!! RIP Ced! He was an amazing talent!
I so appreciate the time and research on your topics!! I never watch without coming to a much better understanding of the guys you feature! Please keep up the fantastic job!! No politics, no judgments, the facts in a very neutral way to give all of us the true story or at least enough to see how some of it played out in their careers. Both good and bad!
Mad Respect Flemlo Raps!!!💯
Appriciate you doing the vid on him . watched every horns game he ever played and thoroughly enjoyed watching him . rip 32
Big Salute bro..✊..ESPN ain't say nothing
I read the title n instantly looked his his name to see what happen...Wow 😦😦
Yes they did...
Jimmy James why do you have to use dumb emojis
As a Longhorn myself, today is a very sad day. Rest In Peace brother.
🙏🙏🙏 bro you are so inspirational. I can listen to your videos all day at work without even looking at my phone. You know your stuff! Kudos to you!
I'm an OU fan and man Cedric gave us some real headaches but I always loved the way he played. He was a good man taken too soon, RIP 32
Thomas jones is a actor now he’s pretty good you should do a vid on him
Love me some Thomas Jones! Great suggestion
@Jimmy The Abyss Walker he was on netflix's Luke Cage.
@Jimmy The Abyss Walker he was also in straight outta compton.
Went to high school with him R.I.P.
Reaper Blue Gaming yeah totally not lying
@@astrostrashcan1223 ...and your proof? 😂
Yeah Midland Lee Rebels
I used to live in midland but I obviously didn’t see him I’m 13 but I am a longhorns fan which is know grueling cause I live in Oklahoma City and all these people are ou fans
I went to school with him also played a little with him as well. His brother Dominic and my sister dated. They whole family was cool. RIP Ced. Running Rebels baby.
Glad you did this. Not being in Texas and not a big fan of the National Felon League I missed this in the news. I remember Cedric at my alma mater, he was a great team member and contributed to the Longhorns success. Sad to hear of all his problems, and his tragic death, but good to remember him. Hook 'em! The eyes of Texas will forever be upon him.
Much respect King this is definitely a dope piece on one if the greatest running backs i grew up watching S.I.P Cedric Benson 🙏🙏🙏
do a video on the Minnesota kicker that got set up and jumped while playing for Baltimore
What was his name?
Kaare vedvik
He a dawg
I am really curious about this, it's weird how everything was swept under the rug. I think his teammates did some hate crime shit on him and drugged him so he wouldn't remember. The Ravens worked something out with Kaare to not try to find anything out that could fuck up the organization....just my theory.
bboa15 You have an incredibly eloquent way of speaking.
I watched Cedric benson play in Highechool at midland Lee HS
That's my high school they havent and I bet they never will no matter what
You need to go back to it
S!lEnTdUB yeah bet
Towel Gang yeah he went to my school
@Fuzzy Hoping in Texas they welcome that kinda shyt.
Excellent work as usual, I love this way you tell these stories with respect to the players!
Thank you. This helped me. One of my favorite players. Guy had so much heart.
Played baseball against him in highschool. Hit 2 inside the park homeruns in 1 game! Dude was legit.
Great dude! No young boy is coming up and hugging on you if your a bad dude!! RIP man
Right! ...that struck me too, rip CB
Dude been watching ur channel for a couple years now, and I always enjoy for output and dedication to making new stuff. Thanx Flemlo you a GOAT
I went to the same high school as Ced back in the desert. He's a legend and meant so much to the community. You did another fantastic job here! Love it. As a fan, and a fellow Lee Rebel, Thank you.
Yuhhhh. 1:24 I’m in the vid!!!!! Sachse Mustangs. 🤑🤑🤑 RIP to the champ tho Frfr. Mad respect to that man
Iraxks 23 yoooooo thats awesome
I've only been in Paul Brown stadium 2x. One was at the Bears game where Ced ran wild!
Man your channel is addictive I can't stop watching your videos wish i had this kind of motivation in high school when i played ball
Thank you for making this. Ced was one of my neighbor's for a while became good friends. Will miss him. Him and my mom would still do lunch from time to time.
Thank you Flemlo Hookem Horns!!! Midland Lee destroyed us in a playoff game in High school and Benson almost did it by himself. Could you please do a video on what happened to Ron Dayne?
El Paso schoool?
@@henryjw15 yes
RIP CED. Great work. LONG LIVE FLEMLO!
Love how you gave a quick shout out and R.I.P. for the passenger as well. Their life meant something too. Much respect Flem
Thank you for your tribute to Cedric Benson. We Longhorn fans greatly appreciate it!
R.i.p to Cedric benson. Thanks for doing this video flem. I've been asking for it. He was one my favorite running back
Good tribute man
RIP Cedric
Thanks for adding this broke my heart to hear this phenomenal man R.I.P
Luv how thorough you is when you break shit down fo ppl. Deff one a the more official channels on the football biography side
One like equals one prayer for Cedric.
Damn!! Crazy I was just telling my son he run the ball like C.Benson
Represented Midland Texas well. He was a hometown hero here for his incredible high school career with the Lee Rebels! Rip Ced B
Rip a legend ❤️🙏🏿
I have a patch of Cedrick.. never thought I would cry over it 😓😓 and ima panthers fan
Cedric*
Bro your my favorite youtuber. I love your knowledge and your presentation. I love your vids! Im that kinda kid who would eat and watch you.
Glad to hear the kind words from a fellow ced fan, a lifetime Longhorn fan i appreciated everything he did for us and im sure you feel the same as a Bengals fan. Bigger than football, he had a good heart.
Loved him when he joined my team the packers.wish he played more for the green and gold. R.I.P.
Me too
Jessica Thill dumbass its yellow
Looking forward to the “ what happened to Andrew Luck “ video 🔥
Subscribed for the content, the fact you a humble honest Bengal fan is a plus.
Always liked this guy. Thanks for making a great video tribute to a good man.
Bear Down!!!!!! Once a Bear, always a Bear.
RIP brother Cedric
Bear Down Bro...
He was a star for the Bengals though
@@organizedconfusionkd discovered by Chicago tho even if he wasn't a major part of their system rebuilding. His holding out prior to signing his rookie contract also hurt his chances in Chicago and because so, he didn't play any preseason games in his rookie year but he still made it to a Superbowl as a Bear.
No matter the team he played with, he deserves to RIP.
Rip to ced hopefully see you on the other side coming from a Clemson fan one time hook em 🤘
Dude, Ireally appreciate your story telling and how articulate you are, you have me as a fan sir!!! Thank you
Huge Cincy fan from southeastern Indiana! Benson is a legend here!! Love your channel, bro!
Was just watching the bengals hard knocks for 2009 damn
Same. Shit is sad as hell now
Right, me too
The sad thing is that the day before on his instagram story he posted a picture of his motorcycle
R.I.P Cedric Benson
The same day actually
It was the same day, not the day before.
NotProudMexican ! Wow. Sad.
Your the man fr!! I love all your videos I’m big into sports and I learn a lot off of your videos so please keep up the good work
Great video.
Thanks for going into details about Ced’s life.
15 thousand dollar tv!!
Damn!!
I go to Roy Miller high school and ours is Buccaneers Stadium in Corpus Christi
Can you please do the story of Anthony Miller just a suggestion
Guy man Guy man they are still playing dude
Have you heard Anthony Millers story and flemlo makes story’s more interesting
Many thanks for the video, may he Rest In Peace. I loved him as a RB for the Bears. I got to see him play while I was on recruiting duty in Chicago. Me bringing my kids to stand on the sidelines is what made my son go after his dream of playing in the NFL and now he plays for the Eagles #58 LJ Fort
I'm a huge Longhorn fan and I love watching replays of ced tearin' it up. R.I.P Cedric Benson 1 and a half years later
Day 5 asking flem to do another ncaa 14 dynasty

I’m 16 and a bears fan and my first ever jersey was Thomas Jones but I don’t remember watching him really I do remember Cedric Benson though RIP
