Marshawn Lynch has an epic background, humble lifestyle, extreme brand of play, and a unique media presentation. He is open with his battles, and that makes him more endearing to me. More public figures should pattern after him.
He gave us some great memories here in Seattle, I am happy for him, I will still cheer for him even as a Raider. A great running back that actually puts his mouth where his money is. I will still watch the replays of beast-quake and hope to see him end up his career how he wants on his terms. Just remember we still love you in Seattle.
Billy the Bandwagon IQ is a result of community consciousness. Blacks have a community of disadvantaged consciousness... Scarcity mentality. But 10x worse because of American trauma programming done to blacks
SmithN' Wesson lol I doubt that bro. You can't stand blacks like that you mind as well fly yourself to mars bro because nobody is going anywhere anytime soon...have a good one ✊
Jeremiah Carter brah ill admit u good but dont be talking like that online coaches see that ass inmature and coaches look for skilled mature players and they also check your grades keep it up but keep that in mind to
I been watching him since his dreds was 👂 length... I'm proud of him! Oakland is a tough place but anything and anyone that makes it out is always the best at what the do....from the rappers to the athletes... I'm from Indiana but I just love the bay they slang and they folks!
@@mastermind0981 we humans we not going to make just one mistake and never make another. Idc who you are mistakes are human he was young. Obviously he grew up with time
@@jqday4567 I am watching Marshawn play right now against San Francisco, don't even watch football ever since the kneeling incidents. But, glad he is all grown up. But, if ever he makes a mistake don't come up with, oh I grew up in the hood. We need to say it was my fault, apologize and do better. Lots of people grew up under difficult circumstances, but, didn't go on to make mistakes. That's all. Happy new year.
@@mastermind0981 obviously you never grew up in his situation so I can see why you would say that but trust me not everyone come from difficult up bringings I wish they made a machine so you could experience life from someone's else situation. But happy new years
as a life long, die hard seahawks fan, i love what that man did for my team and i respect the shit out of the man he is and what he does for his community. I am happy for him to be back home and getting to rap up his powerful career where it all started. BEAST MODE!!! One of a kind man right there.
Marshawn Lynch is a great example of what a real man is. I have nothing but mad love and respect for this young man. He is an inspiration. Mistakes. Everyone makes them. Not everyone learns from them and turns things around to the positive. Marshawn has done that and more. What a wise old owl he is. This is a real man. Period.
@4:25 Marshawn: "Oh my God, if my linemen wasn't so good! Oh my God, I don't know what to do." BEAST MODE his whole career has always be regarded as the ultimate TEAM player. There's footage on footage to back it up too when he's been Mic'd up. RESPECT!
"where you think you learned to be so untrusting?" Have you met humans? I dont think a lot of folks understand how privileged they are to walk around in safety. But it makes you naive.
As an NFL fan i love the fact he is coming back to the game he was always one of my favorite personalities. He reminded me of T.O and Ocho Cinco just people who were absolute animals in the game and did not care what anybody had to say. As a Chargers fan...... i'm dead on the inside.
Great interview and video - I had the pleasure of playing basketball with Marshawn (along with fellow Oakland native Marcus Peters) back in 2018 several times. I was just telling that story to a friend yesterday so I popped on and found this video because it reminded me of that. This describes Marshawn Lynch so perfectly - the man is nothing but authentic and real and loyal.
You are an inspiration to all the young kids in the inner cities you survived and made it. Respect to you and your mother . As a fan of football you are fun to watch Beast Mode you are the real deal.
He seems like such a solid dude even when I've seen him make appearances on Conan O'Brien or other stuff like that, he just seems like a funny, down to earth guy and would be a blast to chill with...big props to this man.
I absolutely cannot imagine what it's like being a little kid living in the horrendous projects, not eating every day, & having to wear the same clothes every day for a week. That he was able to graduate high school with no police record, all of his limbs, & put his mind body & soul into being the best HS football player he could be, then to achieve even greater feats at Cal, says a LOT about a man! Hopefully he has enough Jesus in his heart to finish his life safely, enjoyably, & charitably. I've never met Marshawn, but I believe him to be good people!
For you folks who never had a dad or he was not around for you. I feel bad. My dad was married to my mom for 63 years before he passed . He was a great man and a great father.. I wish Marshawn could have had a father like mine.
Will always be my favorite player. One day he rented out the water park I lifeguarded at so that a bunch of kids from Oakland could have a chance to get out of the city and enjoy some summer fun. He knew most of the kids by name and you could really tell he cared for and loved them.
I love the love you can feel when his mom talked about him. And that his coach knew him. I also like how awnrey he appears to be. I just wanted to thank you for being that great.
Marshawn, poet, dancer. philosopher, counselor, philanthropist, athlete... comic. such deep places you can call home. You'll always have a home in Seattle. Stop on by and dance the warrior dance with us this next super bowl.
Marshawn is God gifted with speed, strength, and resilience, honed to perfection through hard work and dedication. May he stay on the humble path and have many successes in Oakland with the Raiders. I'm grateful to be alive to witness his true talent.
I hope Marshawn can reach new heights now that he is in the Silver and Black. I am sure it means more to him to be playing for his home town and we are really happy to have him.
ML aka "beast mode" thanks man. You a diamond out the salvage yard, yet you showed kids "hard work is the key" from oak-town to NY. International playa real OG.
It was good to hear him talk and tell us about himself because sometimes all we know is what we 👀 but I do believe in knowing a person before judging them
If you ever want to know what winters are like here in western NY, just look at Marshawn's face and how speechless he was at 5:00 It's real! I love this dude... he's a foxhole type of brother.
Beast mode i salute him, gives back to his community & he made the struggle look good.... He bounced back from all that growing up as a child....... Now look at him......... Can't be stopped BEAST MODE.........
I was born in East Oakland,it's a beautiful place.The issue that's plaguing certain parts of Oakland is that there aren't any recreational programs for the youth and not enough positive male role models,the youth wants fast easy money but that only leads to death or time in the penitentiary ,Knowledge is power and education is the key tons of young men in women that are as smart and as talented as they come unfortunately most get caught in a vicious cycle ,products of their environment and unless you've lived it you don't know it,so pray that things change because the youth deserve it.
David Mazzini I wouldn’t say beautiful I feel like north oakland and parts are beautiful but what you said is very true and only a couple come out on top and those are the ones that work hard in school and never give up.
From west oakland acorn projects, use to have knocks and sell that yatta but met some great people who turnt my life around through turf dancing. Today you barely see turf dancing, if only turf dance came back active it would prob lower crime rates. I remember going city to city sac to Frisco, Vallejo, rich, and new York to battle or watch the battles. Turf dancing have tooken teens and adults out of the street and put them in a batter path through out northern cali.
I know what it’s like to starve, wear the same dirty clothes while living in a tent with my dad homeless and still stayed in school. Life’s hard af but there are such beautiful moments in the end now I hold the roof over my own family’s head. I’m now a proud loving supporting father
I'm not a Raiders fan but if my Eagles don't win the Superbowl i hope that the Raiders do. Knowing that they're moving and for Lynch to unretire to help them win a Superbowl will be a story for the ages especially after they didn't give him the ball and forced him to retire. He loves his city man !!
The Answer to that is NO, since they didnt do it against the Chargers and Derek Carr threw a INT in the endzone that was ultimately the nail in the coffin for that game
![Lp. Сердце Вселенной #60 РОЖДЕНИЕ ЛОЛОЛОШКИ [Финал] • Майнкрафт](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/YoR0pAV9FVQ/mqdefault.jpg)
His response to being called a thug was "Spot on!!!" Well said!
That is the most intelligent answer I’ve ever heard about being a “thug “ He will always be one of my favorites.
And also very honest and self-aware.
Marshawn lynch, real af. Dude is just one genuine person.
WoW.......never judge a man until you hear him speak.
Then decide if you'd walk a mile in his shoes.
Proud of your accomplishments BEAST MODE!!!!!
From a Pats fan, I love Marshawn. This man is as real as can be and he know his roots.
Marshawn Lynch has an epic background, humble lifestyle, extreme brand of play, and a unique media presentation. He is open with his battles, and that makes him more endearing to me. More public figures should pattern after him.
Well said

On a wild card playoff game nonetheless

Thankful to see the man suit up one last time, will always be my favorite player
I love how he broke down that run with his life struggles, at the end "TOUCH DOWN", well said my brother, well said.........100 SALUTE
You can take a man out of Oakland but u will never take Oakland out of a man
Bad job referencing this special run multiple times but not showing it.
That's weak. You showed his other runs, why not his best?
Agree

Mistakes are supposed to build character. Learn from them. You're good Bro.
"where you think you learned to be so untrusting?"

to all you seattle fans , he always had the oakland in him . the BAY runs through his blood
Hawaiian Flip no doubt. I'm a Seattle fan but all love if he goes to Oakland...
u mean L.V ! that buky larson looking owner is a d bag fa reals !
Mar Par all honest bruh oak town don't take under as the bay if you really know bout that
Oakland is considered part of the bay idk where u from but obviously not from the bay

I like your understanding. But remember,there's over half of the world 🌎 that has no common sense or understanding outside of their own understanding.
He said we "being short changed by watching the video", well imagine how ripped I feel looking at photos lol 8:40
For you folks who never had a dad or he was not around for you. I feel bad. My dad was married to my mom for 63 years before he passed . He was a great man and a great father.. I wish Marshawn could have had a father like mine.
Your past doesn’t define you. Look at Kevin Hart. He grew up without a father and he’s one of the most successful comedians in the world
No one cares about your father lmao
None of what you said has any value. You were just stroking your own ego at someone else's expense. Evidently, your father didn't teach you humility.
Y’all tell us about the run that defined “BEAST MODE” without even showing it, great job ESPN
Will always be my favorite player. One day he rented out the water park I lifeguarded at so that a bunch of kids from Oakland could have a chance to get out of the city and enjoy some summer fun. He knew most of the kids by name and you could really tell he cared for and loved them.
"i would like to see some of the mistakes they would make", such a good answer. most of us would go off the rails.
I sure did on just 20k that I made fishing in Alaska. It took me 5 years to break out of that fishing, party loop!
I love the love you can feel when his mom talked about him. And that his coach knew him. I also like how awnrey he appears to be. I just wanted to thank you for being that great.
Prayers for him to be the best person he can be. Be blessed brotha.❤🙏💪
I jus loved his answer about him being thugg 💯🤘
I wish nothing but the best for this man I hope he continues his success and it reach out to those in need God bless you
“Idk- idk how to go into beast mode”😂😂his face
Love this dude. I love his bluntness.
Marshawn, poet, dancer. philosopher, counselor, philanthropist, athlete... comic. such deep places you can call home. You'll always have a home in Seattle. Stop on by and dance the warrior dance with us this next super bowl.
his reaction to snow is hilarious
Marshawn is God gifted with speed, strength, and resilience, honed to perfection through hard work and dedication. May he stay on the humble path and have many successes in Oakland with the Raiders. I'm grateful to be alive to witness his true talent.
This might be my fav story in sports right now tbh. Like if he possibly came back. Marshawn is just awesome and everyone loves him.
//// Um...yeah me for me personally. I respect LeBron's impact though.
Jimmy butlers story?
savage t Aesthetic Knight he'd back.
I relate to Mashawn on so many levels. Even tho I’m a Charger fan I still like watching him play.
I hope Marshawn can reach new heights now that he is in the Silver and Black. I am sure it means more to him to be playing for his home town and we are really happy to have him.
ML aka "beast mode" thanks man. You a diamond out the salvage yard, yet you showed kids "hard work is the key" from oak-town to NY. International playa real OG.
6:45 the chuckle of a man who learned first hand.......How this world is truly ran!!
david Core so true!
That kid at 9:40 had me 💀 😂😂
THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN
It was good to hear him talk and tell us about himself because sometimes all we know is what we 👀 but I do believe in knowing a person before judging them
2:13 Narrator had me thinkn Marshawn lookd just like his Pops
6:35 when you're thinking of an answer after the teacher calls on you
thats it, im moving to west side Chicago
If you ever want to know what winters are like here in western NY, just look at Marshawn's face and how speechless he was at 5:00 It's real! I love this dude... he's a foxhole type of brother.
D Jones if he thinks winters in western New York are bad than he should try playing in Green Bay or in Chicago.
Niners fan, but I will always respect Lynch for being himself and staying grounded.
😂😂.... this foo keep cursing lolol... too funny
Come to where you belong Beast mode, Oakland!
Now, he belongs to Las Vegas...
Welcome back to Oakland beast mode 🏈🏈🏈
dont you mean las vegas...lol
Juan Castro not going to LV for 2 more years. ponte las pilas and get it right
Bailey Webb noooooo he deserves to stay in retirement he did well in Seattle
Beast mode i salute him, gives back to his community & he made the struggle look good.... He bounced back from all that growing up as a child....... Now look at him......... Can't be stopped BEAST MODE.........
When u make a custom running back, Lynch is the outcome

Oakland like any large city has its good and its bad. Name me a big major city that doesnt have any rough, rundown slums.
So good to have you back EAST BAY Playa. OAKLAND stand up! Gonna be a fun couple of years!
The harder the life lessons, the smarter and harder the individual 🚒
There should be a four part doc on this man. Incredible person and an incredible person.
that's. a big ass coach
why you looking at his ass. You should be looking at him.
Talk about morbidly obese!
how somebody even get like that man 😭 unc built like a bounce house
All I can say is I understand and their is so many people that if giving a chance would be as great as this man !!💯
who else is here cause of the lynch to oakland trade?
ayyyye
D Avila you gayyyye
It wasn't a trade

It wasn't a trade he retired and then came out of retirement to play for the Oakland raiders

Wow powerful words ,”I guess you can say that run is symbolic of my life.”
the real question is.....will the Raiders run the ball on the 1
The Answer to that is NO, since they didnt do it against the Chargers and Derek Carr threw a INT in the endzone that was ultimately the nail in the coffin for that game
& the cowboys game

Beast mode is the MAN! Best ANSWER ive ever heard regarding his portrayal of being a "THUG"!
I bet 99% of these seahawks fans didn't know he was drafted to the bills and not the seahawks
Vixmah I'm pretty sure everyone knew that dumbass I'm a Seahawks fan and I have been for 11 years. You know before they were a bandwagon team
Vixmah Haha so funny dumbass
Vixmah I did I'm a Seahawks fan
Vixmah most people know that 😒
Vixmah right hella ppl don't know that...BTW imma seahawk fan
Just a real dude that gives back!!
Much love Lynch 💚💙
Seattle loves and respects Marshawn Lynch, no matter where he's from.
This dude 27? he looks like a buff 21 savage with braids
Dxpressed Soulz LOL
2:40 I’m so dead 😂😂😂
He's humble not a very common trait among football players
Who doesn't love Marshawn? Realist dude, who isn't perfect, but has the heart of gold.
he was the hardest to TACKLE... thats what nfl players said!!!
Wow really speak from the heart like it should be spoken, for the world to known and most of all for life of what it is!
Watching this before he comes back to the Seahawks 😐
Sweet Andrew same
wow he's back now
I'm hear because I heard he is coming back
it will be a beast quake just from him running onto field... can't wait
Oakland is love... I glad that I’m from Oakland
Michael Zegu Is Oakland all that bad or is it only certain neighborhoods that are rough and rundown.
Someone needs to change the batteries in their smoke detector.
that interview room need to change the smoke alarm
Pete Carrol didn't give him the ball after getting them in scoring position to win Bowl. Haaaaa better off not in Seattle. Beast Mode Oakland !!
Yep, he knew it s time to move on then. Pete clearly did not want him to have the MVP award and it cost Seattle a title.
Pete didn't call the play
rly, kearse made the better play. Caught a crazy catch for like 40 or so yards that put them WAY closer to the endzone
Best running back, ever. If your name is synonymous with "Beast Mode" then you're 1.
Miss you Beast Mode! Come back and show Ezekiel Elliot what a real running back is!
Pablo For real
Pablo bro elliot showed you what a real RB is. Stop hatin. lynch dont got much on elliot this time around.
Jay Jay you're funny bro 😂 Zeke isn't even a #1 RB just a bunch of cowboys fans rooting for someone they never knew until g out in the cowboys jersey
Jay Jay u Dallas fans dillusional lol
Ezekiel Elliot is better than Beast mode what you thought
Absolutely GREAT, insightful, mature answer he gave when asked about his opinion on people thinking he's a thug... Who can judge Now?
No matter how successful you are, how much money you make, or how big your house is, never forget where you came from. 💯
Got that right. Marshawn is the real deal. He will never forget Oakland. I love this young brother.
2:39 you can tell that when he was a kid he would get whooped if he used profanity... just by the reaction lol good shit 😂😂
Idc what anyone says, this guy is a role model...much respect sir
Much love for Marshawn. Don't forget us up in the PNW. #12
