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!

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.

Thankful to see the man suit up one last time, will always be my favorite player

@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!

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.

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.

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.

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

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 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.
