Hope yall dug the video, had a great time making this one! Im feeling recharged and excited to do what I love again! Thank yall that's been rocking with me on this TH-cam Journey! I got more to say, but I'll save it until the next update video. Maybe at 800k...
Haven’t even finished the video yet I know it’s gonna be a banger 💪🏿 🔥
Love your videos bro! Keep up the good work. Great content as always.
Hope you get picked up by ESPN or some sports network...your show is always excellent! Keep it up!

You didn’t mention he was one test away from season suspension. You reap what you sow
This week, on days of our Steelers, featuring FlemLo Raps
Shoutout to my boy Tree
Tonight, on where’s my liquor. FT: Captain Fat Fuck, Mike Tomlin, LeVeon Bell, Mr. Big Chest, etc.
@@obijuanquenobi1911 lol I can’t wait to hear that during the season
@UCazhpToa5Z07lgnUL6fYdEw like a wise tree once said: Fuck you, Spanos
Yo FlemLo Raps, please make a video on the “whole truth about Ben Roethlisberger.”
"Leveon's exit from Pittsburgh is one of the weirdest things I ever seen."
And it got completely overshadowed by the travelling circus that is Antonio Brown.
I'll bet AB surprised you though...he surprised me.
But AB Balled out on his new team.. Leveon didnt seem to have the drive anymore. And he was on the BEST team during regular season.
@@theman9318 idk about balled out, but he did do good.
AB - 2020 Super Bowl Champion (1TD)
@@stinkytoebeanz9966 to perform how he did in an Arians offense after coming in halfway thru the season is extremely difficult. He definitely balled out. He would of had 1k yards as a slot WR if he was signed at the same time Brady was.
"Don't burn all your bridges, especially in business. You'll never know when you need to cross the river."
My dad....RIP
Big facts bro
As a Jets fan I wanna inform everyone that our play calls when we had Le’Veon went as follows no matter the distance or game scenario
1st down - hb dive
2nd down - hb dive
3rd down - te screen
4th down - punt
🤷🏽♂️ do with this as you will
I mean you can’t sit out a year, decline in skill and expect to still be treated like the best RB in the league
Thank you bruh !!!
Exactly. Gained weight. Lost vision and speed. His conditioning was terrible.
Facts
You cant have a good running game without blocking but blockinh alone won't get you what you need you got have a back that can find the holes when they are there..
Come to New Orleans an take some reps so Kamara can get a breather !
I don't blame the Steelers for not giving him much guaranteed money, people forget during the off season Bell was a ticking time bomb, he got suspended for substance abuse for 3 years straight missing a total of 12 games, then on top with the injuries that added another 10 games. I'm not saying it was right but you can't blame them.
Not to mention How he got caught for substance abuse is one of the dumbest things ever. Smoking weed in the car next to a cop. He and Blount take an L for that.
Facts
I noticed he said he missed games because of injury. Left out he was suspended .
@@samuelorourke3967 well obviously but at this time it’s still something that the nfl goes after you for like Ima heavy smoker but they shouldn’t be smoking knowing they could be risking millions and they whole career
But they pay and give the keys to the kingdom to a washed up fat body, 39 year-old, passive-aggressive, Rapistpornberger beta who can’t throw 25 yards nor work alongside much needed Alpha players who will help the team win championships. Man go somewhere with that.
Steelers made the right move with their offer and not increasing the guaranteed money. Lev continues to prove them right with his PLAY and attitude.
Lemme break this down. Steelers would’ve paid him 45 million in the first 3 years. 90 % of Steeler players signed, play their contract in its entirety. Those who didn’t, were cut a year before the contract end. For instance, Steelers picked up Ryan Shazier 5th year option. They kept their word and signed him two additional years so he could complete his rehab.
Couldn’t of said it any better. Perfect response👍🏽
Then why only guarantee 10 mil 🤔
@@MysticTjay probably structured that way for cap relief but not certain. I know they convert salary payments to guarantee money year to year. For instance, AB signed a 4 yr 43 million extension before the last year of his rookie deal. He totally outperformed that contract. Instead of him holding out for a new deal or them giving him a new deal they kept converting salary to guarantee payment before the season. So regardless of what happened he would be paid for the entire year. Was his deal for 10 million guarantee off the bat? Unsure of.
I don’t think this is the best example, Shazier’s situation is completely unique compared to others. Dude got paralyzed on the field in pittsburgh and was a fan favorite. The Steelers signed him again for the PR move so they didn’t look like assholes cutting a paralyzed man.
They let him stay on as a “coach” but I’m pretty sure that has ended now as well.
@@MysticTjay Because he was always one bong hit away from a league suspension and the organization didn't trust his judgment.He had the DUI and failed drug test. Flemlo didn't mention these things but they certainly factor in to an organizations long term financial planning.
An NFL running back really cannot afford to sit out an entire season in his prime at $14M per season considering the running backs have on average the shortest NFL careers. Sometimes an athlete can overstate their value to the detriment of their career. With Bell, it's like he was saying " I'll sit out before I play for a measly $14 million"...
Yea he fucked up big time
Bet on himself and lost…
No guarantee money = no guarantee career
@@Dakidpepe With his multiple suspensions they were spot on to not guarantee him big money. This low sure money made him have to step up and make changes in his life.
WELL THE BODY IS LIKE A CAR - YOU CAN'T JUST LET IT SIT THERE... - U MIGHT AS WELL GET MOVING - SITTING ON THE BENCH - PULLING SPLINTERS OUT YOUR A** - SAYING "WELL I GET PAID 14 MILLION A YR FOR 7 YRS - GUARANTEED - IF I PLAY OR NOT" - IN REALITY - IT'S JUST NOTHING TO B PROUD OF - AND - WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING NOT ONLY 4 YOUR CHILDREN - BUT OTHERS COMING N2 THE LEAGUE - ?
Imagine holding out as an RB to see your position turn into the most expendable in the league. He took a gamble and it did not pay off.
Its turning into a 7 on 7
It was always an expendable position because there body's take a beating. It's only special cases do RB's make it longer then avg.
@@NickJaime this is true, I grew up watching Emmett smith and then I came to realize he was a freak and not the typical nfl RB. We’ll never see that again.
@@Cured_Ham Emmett, Barry, Adrian Peterson, Jerome bettis
@@realmontana6838 Adrian Peterson was a freak of nature who provided running backs with a dream. Running backs are 4 to 6th round picks.
Best explanation I’ve heard for the “he’s getting millions, he should be grateful” crowd
Man, the wisdom you interlay with these true sports stories is so uplifting. Didn’t think that watching Rutgers NCAA 14 content 5 years ago would lead me to a point where I’m getting schooled and led to be a better man all this time in the future. Appreciate your impact FlemLo.
You forgot to mention the suspensions for illegal substance that Bell had, on top of the injury at the time. Steelers felt he needed to earn the money every year and I couldn’t have agreed more. Bell really hasn’t earned his keep since leaving the Steelers.
Thank you as a Steelers fan some people didn’t notice
Good thing you don’t cut the $14 mil checks huh
It's a very valid point. I believe his next drug related suspension would have been a year long.
I think people don’t give coaches enough credit, imagine having a team with 60 or more players with different personalities and 1/2 of them have the I AM GOD of my position complex. And you have to get them all to play as a team and get along to reach a common goal! No wonder half of coaches from pee wee all the way up to pros have some kind of medical health issues. Mad respect to all coaches of all sports, I appreciate you!!
I appreciate your comment, but you definitely sound like a ref trying to give yourself some recognition 🤔😂😂
The Steelers centered the offense around Bell, the Jets didn’t utilize him, and the Chiefs really didn’t need him. Now he’s past his prime.
The Jets o line didn’t help either
He lost his snaps to Williams and Clyde in KC. Must means something he supposedly had starter talent 🤔
What do you mean? They’d hand him the ball on first and second down soooo much people were getting mad they weren’t throwing cause the run game obviously wasn’t
It wasn't that he wasn't utilized by the Jets so much as it was that they couldn't. Le'Veon's greatest strength as a running back was his vision; he was excellent at exploiting openings created by the offensive line. In Pittsburgh he had a strong line that could give him those opportunities, but the Jets' weak line wasn't able to do that and so Le'Veon struggled.
Big Ben, Bell, and AB were an insane trio 😎
When betting on yourself backfires.
Did it though? I will bet on myself 99.9% because even if I don’t get everything I wanted. I promise you I will definitely be walking away better than when I walked in until the end.
@@savageamerican7908 I mean, he a Top 3-5 RB in the league, then he chose to sit out a whole season and it led to nothing.
@@LeroyzkiSmithsonian this...you cannot recover that lost year and he still aged one year.
Bet with confidence not arrogance
@@savageamerican7908 he would still be on the steelers roster getting paid now if he would have stayed. Acting like the decision he made was the right one is just irresponsible at this point
Good quote, " the guy with the most patience is now running out of time."

@Percocet Pastor I blame his privileged upbringing personally. But no worries, this comment will surely cancel him for life! See, the good guys do win.
@Percocet Pastor But thank you for your bravery in calling attention to this dastardly behavior. I know of that sacrifice, and fear.
@Percocet Pastor am I missing something? How's anything in Logan's comment racist?
@@jesusisc0mings00n3 They're just joking lol
Being a lifelong STEELERS fan, all I got to say is LeVeon & Antonio did it to themselves.
Antonio got a zuperbowl ring with with bucaneers.
@@uglyhobo4602 that’s because of Brady not caring about integrity and only caring about winning so he didn’t care if he played with a clown that eventually threw him under the bus lol
I love how you always look at all perspectives when you do these videos man. It’s refreshing to watch an unbiased and objective video when it comes to sports. Very hard to find that nowadays. Keep up the great content 🙏🏼
Yo shoutout to Kawaii Fried Chicken for planting this idea in my head over in the Flemlo Raps Discord! If yall already in show him some love! If you haven't joined yet there are still spots open discord.gg/DGNRU3agFY
Honestly, running backs should have bigger contracts on their rookie deal. Their shelf life is so small compared to other positions, and get used an abused for their first contract that it’s hard for them to get the money they earned.
I totally agree with you and didn’t understand why that wasn’t negotiated in the Bargaining deal last year. They are the one position that gets penalized for having a big year or two - many teams don’t want to pay big for that second contract worried that the back won’t have prime years in that 2nd contract. I also think teams should only be able to franchise tag a player one time. Then the next year they can’t - it’s not fair to the players - I’m saying this a football fan that loves my team.
I definitely agree with you. They're constantly getting paid for what they have done. Rookie deals for running backs should have a clause where the running back can negotiate after year 2 maybe even year 1 cause we all know right from the beginning what they can do
@@danielblack8056 but what would stop wideouts from demanding running back contracts? Good idea, but not easy to execute
THIS!
@@symptomofsouls average career span....can you compare any to running backs? Not even close
Hey Flemlo, I’ve been following you for a minute and have to say you’ve come a long way. You just keep getting better. Be proud of yourself and keep moving forward. Great job young sir!
I need a basketball version of flemlo raps, I literally hit this dude page up more than Wikipedia these days
@Stuntedgrowth
As a Steelers fan, I hate the way things played out. He was my favorite player for a couple years and I hated seeing him leave the team. Same goes for AB
I agree with what you said I thought we were super bowl bound but it didn’t work out his hold out hurt him and the Steelers just wish he would come back to help the Steelers we could use him with Harris now that would be a great one two punch
Yea thats why nfl players need to get out of this NBA mentality.. in football a players success can be amplified by scheme that particular coach installs for that player...nothing says they will always have the same success else where.
Had the same feeling I loved Antonio and lev but eventually they became cancers and the Steelers recognized it and made the smart move
This was like quitting your job, before you buy a lottery ticket, I mean just crazy, leaving $$$, on the table.
These are very young men who’ve spent their lives consumed by a game, not by finance. Their agents deserve a lot more side eye for these bad business decisions these young men make. Shady.
That’s why whatever our kids careers are are up to them, but a minor in finance is required. Learn how to count your own money.
Beautiful video man! It’s definitely different than your usual material, but the points you hit on, from the facts to your interpersonal advice (which can be applied to any situation)... great work!!
POV: Me:After watching and loving almost all of Flemo's content, and it took a rad t-shirt to inform me that it's not, "Cue the Way" . Hand plants on face.
Brother, you deserve that Netflix bread. The way you break it down and keep it fun. Insane production value. I've learned more from your channel as a 41 year old die-hard football fan, than ANY other source. Thank you my guy. Much love. Mad respect! Cheers! 💚👽🤘Cue the Wayne!😂
Also I don't blame Steelers players for being mad that he didn't show up, alot of them took pay cuts to make way for Le'veon bells contract. That is something that is never reported. How would you feel that you donated money (that you can't get back by the way) so your friend can move into an apartment and he never shows up, he doesn't even call you to tell you why either, you would feel some kind of way. Pouncey, David Decastro, Stephen Tuitt, Cam Heyward, and Big Ben all took pay cuts so pittsburgh can offer that 5 year 70 million dollars contract.
Wow dude idk that part I feel some type of way as well on that
Dude was a selfish player considering how terrible he was with the jets I think it’s safe to say the Steelers had the right idea not paying this clown.
You forgot that he was in Miami and throwing a hissy fit during his holdout.
Probably my favourite video yet. Great job as always bro
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
It's funny how people from humble beginnings can find it so hard to actually Be humble
16:44 - love the "tears" effect! As a Chiefs fan, I appreciate the insight into Bell's story. I didn't realize the Steelers did him like that with the contract, however sounds like he could have been a bit better teammate. Certainly wouldn't recommend calling everyone out on social media as a free agent, he's not making things any better for himself.
Facts
If I was making decisions for the Steelers I would have been cautious to give him the payday as well...how many suspensions for substance abuse did he have while there.
Victim mentality. It’s an epidemic in today’s society. Sad.
Idk man, "we: (steelers fan here) offered him $70 million for 5 years. The deal he signed with the Jets paid him more guaranteed money, but he ended up making much less than if he would have stuck around the burgh. I see both side's argument and can understand where both were coming from. The Steelers didn't want to give him all that guarenteed money given he was aging and has had plenty of issues off the field and in the locker room. And Bell wanted to get the maximum money that he could with his remaining "Prime" years. It's just a shame it all went down the way it did. He was one of my favorite players on the team and a ton of fun to watch play.
@@papplays5968 This. Although Brown was my favorite at the time. As a Steelers fan it sucked to have both these guys end their careers with us on a horrible note. Wish both sides could have come to a middle ground on the contract.
Flem man, absolutely amazing content. You're one of THE BEST on youtube. I get real bad football withdrawal in the offseason and you're content gives me the "fix" I need.
Love the channel, I don’t know too much about football but I like coming to this channel and learning about past players, you’ve made me a football fan thanks 🙏🏾
Talking accountability.
One reason the Steelers may have not wanted to guarantee as much money was that Lbell had 2 drug suspensions.
I didn't follow him closely, but given his running style when I did see him play, I felt there were very few lines he could run behind, and the Steelers were obviously one of them. I always felt it was their line far more than him.
Nothing but facts
He was great at finding holes. If there aren’t gonna be any there he’s not a guy that can create on his own and make people miss. He’s too proud to realize his success wasn’t all him.
Agree facts Levon just took advantage of that great online
@@TEFLONDONTRUMP2024 nah man the best backs in the league average 4-5 yrds per carry but there is a lot things that go imto their successful running game you gotta have, good playcalling, good blocking up front and a back that can take advantage when he sees the opening courtesy of (JOHN MADDEN)
@@TEFLONDONTRUMP2024 a strong oline is the 1st and most important step to an effective offense
I thought I was crazy when I treated everything like it was my fault!
All my family issues, my personal shortcomings, my friends struggles. I know I was blessed to do great things to change situations and I knew I had the power to actually make a difference. Dvmn Flem u got me again... ✊🏾
You do a great job of breaking the info down so others can understand👏🏾👌🏽. Thank u for doing your research and having an amazing delivery. Oh, and everybody stay in your own pockets, and the world will be a better place!😁
LeVeon had it made everywhere he went (maybe except the Jets) yet he manages to get in his own way. Hope he gets it together and gets back to being a solid RB.
He should’ve signed that contract with the Steelers.
the franchise tag would’ve been a better choice imo. But anything is better than what he actually ended up doing
He should've played and went to free agency instead of sitting out.
Nah. Rigged deal. Not a secure contract and no guarantee on the deal.
@@sb-ns8bl he should've played the 1 year then went to free agency.
@@kflow1379 no he was disrespected with that contract he was a top rb and they didnt want to pay him he wanted a bigger deal
You always deliver such inspirational threads in your accounting, you have so much to say.
Glad you brought up the accountability piece (or lack of it). The only thing you could’ve added to the vid was how James Conner played a role in the situation during 2018. Conner was providing 60-75% of Bell’s production at a fraction of the cost…
As a chiefs fan I was rooting so hard for Levon to make an impact. Hope he gets a shot somewhere.
Flemlo goes,” If you made to the end thank you so much”
Us: “it’s 22 minutes of Flemlo of course we watching the entire video” 🤙🏻
I don't care how long it is, I'm watching Flemlo and Tree to the end
ur vids have been so tuff for years bruh appreciate everything you’ve been doin
Just randomly found your channel man, and I gotta say, I really enjoyed it. Great video, keep em coming!
Bell's biggest praise comes from his patience. His patience was born of the Steelers O-line. Proof is in the tape.
The oline change their blocking to fit his style
We all knew Flemlo was going to make a video about Le'Veon 😂😂But I'll still watch it
Damn FlemLo you awesome dude. ALWAYS bringing a positive message to your videos. Much appreciated, Brazilian Fan here
Love the unique angles you take on the league, and your unbiased opinions. I was a student at MSU while Bell was there, and there was very little indication back then that he would spend so much time in the spotlight for off the field stuff...but this vid really helped put the big picture in perspective. People are complicated, and that’s not always a bad thing! Curious to see how the late part of his career works out. Much love!
Bell's most recent mistake was going to the Chiefs instead of the Bills.
He dropped to 3rd string in KC we had high hopes him and Clyde play off one another since Clyde was a rookie. But when Clyde went down they still had him on the bench. It's something he's doing
Ravens
@@laydklela9111 I don't know if it's something he's doing. Andy Ried just doesn't like to run the ball.
Nobody expected Josh Allen to turn into what he did
@@StevelyBruckShut We did in Buffalo, but outside of here? Hell no. Allen was a dud, not a stud.
Leaving the Steelers killed his career
He did it to himself, no tears.
Fuck Lb 😂😂
We got najee Harris. Time to get back to business
😭 hilarious
he prefers his rap career over his football career, no one should cry for him
How do you know Najee Harris won't turn into the next Le'Veon Bell? You don't know that. These players have absolutely no accountability. Most are raised by single mothers who also have no accountability. Just a bunch of big babies playing a game and complaining about not being paid enough. It's pathetic.
Dig your content, always an interesting insight, with a mildly philosophical tint to it. Well done Flemlo, keep ‘em coming, I’ll keep watching.
Yo dude, I'm a big fan of football from FInland. Your content is pure gold my guy. I found ur channel like a week ago and been binging your videos every single day!
As a Chiefs I wonderd y the Jets just cut him in the middle of the season. And then his first few games in KC I saw he had no burst, no quickness and no speed he once had in Pittsburgh.
Also no desire, no passion, and no reason to be afforded the opportunity to sign with any other NFL team at this point.
That $15/hr v. $9/hr guy comparison was profound. Great perspective, Flem 👍🏾
Always respect your videos bro. Love how you always have an open mind and look at things from multiple sides. It’s something rare in todays world.
One of the best vids from Flem. Great job
Leveon just keeps burning every bridge he gets to. When you do that, options start to close off real quick.
Appreciate you bringing up the Goggins and Jocko mentality brotha
As always, incredible content with incredible music.
Yo, that transition into your sponsor was smooth. Keep up the good work my guy, these videos are 🔥
I made a highlight mix of him just a few days ago , he one of my favorite running backs I loved the way he run just so smooth and PATIENCE and then he had power but then the downfall hope he can get back on his feet 🤞🏾
he acted like a diva, and then didnt produce when he got the money he wanted. went from maybe a top 5 back to an afterthought in a season or 2, and he did it too himself. love seeing ppl like this get hammered
I wonder was there not an agent around trying to explain basic finances to him. He wanted this massive per year deal but couldn't comprehend that going to a trash team to get it would mean his stats would suck and he would never make the money he could have got if he just stayed put and played for 5 years on a slightly smaller per year total. Dude was just delusional all around.
Yo
@@dash4800 agree, he couldn’t comprehend going to the jets would kill his career.
This was a great video lev bell is one of my favorite back of all time he from around my area and he needs to take up for what he’s done so far but still has a lot of talent that could be greatly used. HEAD IN THE GAME BELL YOU GOT THIS💯💯
I do enjoy these videos. You do great work. I don't always agree with your take, but you present them well enough so that I can understand where you're coming from even if I disagree.
"CUE THE WAYNE" WEEKEND EDITION 💪🏽🔥🍿
As a steelers fan. This is such a rough situation. I watched dudes like Redman and Dwyer tote the rock HOPING for a leveon Bell..
Then we got one. And Pittsburgh did not want to pay him. Then they pay AB.. allow the team to raid his locker..
Hard situation as a Steelers fan... and Bell fan. Hardest jersey to retire..
Still hoping to get it signed one day. I'll always have love for Bell.
Just another awesome video from Flemlo
Outstanding as always Flemlo
LeVeon is running his mouth more than he’s running a football 🏈 !
ouch... that hurt...

Thank you Flemlo I really need to hear the whole story
Bro this was a dope video just like the rest of them. Keeo doing your thing.
This video was amazing 🔥, again master at delivering a story 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
The sad reality is that RBs are a dime a dozen and their careers don’t last long in general ( exception Peterson and gore). Teams can pick up an in drafted RB to do the job a lot cheaper. Plus, RBs are only as good as their O line. Just the reality of the game.
2 things before I watch the video, 1 ask Utree, and 2, in my personal opinion, he should've went to the Bills who were not only playoff contenders, but actually needed a RB, which imo would've saved his career.
Now, onto the video!
I agree with what you said but I think it's always best to watch the video before you comment because the video may show you something that changes how you feel about your comment.
@@eugenecaldwell9619 Oh I watched the video, and neither were mentioned, although I do see I'm not alone on the Utree comments XD
Love your videos man just out here doing great work keep it up big dawg we here for you!!!!
Always great content delivered in an unbiased, professional manner.
He’s my all time favorite running back, he’s an inspiration to athletes like myself who aren’t born with elite speed and explosiveness. Hopefully he can turn it around
He's an inspiration? He's the quintessential example of having talent doesn't make you elite. Working hard does.
@@jcore0981 how you knocking his inspiration
@@sizzurpgaming8928 Idk I feel like any possible inspiration he might have had was lost when he became a brat.
Research Walter Payton. A real football player
@@clarkhull7546 See he makes sense to me. Walter was a stand up gentleman along with being a great player. Bell I feel sets a bad precedence to a younger generation. Don't appreciate what you have, cry until you get what you want, then say it's someone else's fault.
“If you are negotiating 15.75 instead of 15, there’s somebody making 9 who feels like you shouldn’t complain” PREACH! Folks don’t think about that, everybody at whatever level they’re at, wants the most from that level. There’s always somebody doing worse who wish they could have what you have.
Yea I felt that was a good point too... til thinking that the ppl @ $9 & $15/hr are both low-income... whereas Bell & superstar athletes are making in a day/week, what those low-income ppl make a year. So yea, it's still hard to fault ppl who criticize Bell's financial decisions.
I get what you're attempting to say but the commentary of "comparing incomes" of your average working class versus the athletic bourg is slightly lacking and kinda lazy.
The same $9/hr is fighting for $15 or more themselves.
@@BmoreAkuma I think the MAIN point is that pocket watching or judging some for wanting more money is dumb. The 9 to 15 reference speaks more to the “everybody has it worse off” and it’s easy to do rich athletes that way…when literally all of us know at least one person who’d think it is dumb for us to complain about money because they have it worse
I see a lot of y’all are purposely missing the point lmao It’s not that deep: it’s wrong to pocket watch and it’s easy to judge people trying to make more money, when it’s not us.
We're not "missing the point". The commentary is so basic and such a low bar in income comparisons.
So good as always thank man I really love the content and attention to detail.
I love your videos , because I love to get your un-bias back story but you always have a moral of the story.. like life lessons that the people involved hopefully see and that we can implement in our daily life 🙌 hats off to you and hope you have great success with this channel
This is a pure example of betting on yourself, and it not paying off in the end...
I feel like some athletes forget the "Professional" part of their job title.
Unfortunately this observation can go so many ways when it come to job titles.
Great narrator! Love the way you broke down the contract as it does get a clear perspective of what he actually gained in terms of guaranteed and not (if all goes well). Nice segment.
I love your show , I love your insight , and Compassion!! Please keep up the great work!!
I was a huge Le'Veon fan but now that we got Najee Harris, I'm good.
The way the NFL treats RBs it’s surprising kids still play the position.
It's a good position to learn if you are a small kid though
I know. Paying them millions to play a sport. So horrible
FlemLo, you never fail to help me understand the other side of the argument. In turn, completely changing my original opinion. I appreciate the hell out of that. I think so many people need more understanding in today's times, rather than digging their heels in proverbially with their opinions. God bless! 🙏🙏
I really liked this type of content from you fam. This was different. I hope this topic of "how did we get here" type stuff can beca series in itself.
I think he'd be a great fit for the Panthers. I could only imagine having him and McCaffrey lined up in the backfield together not knowing which one to cover in the flats.
No, Leveon wants to be the star back and he wouldn’t want to share touches with someone as dynamic as CMC who would get a majority of them
“What ever happened to Eric Berry”. It’s gotta come sooner or later
He actually did it 🥲
Cancer
Probably the best video from FlemLo ❤️
Clear and concise and thorough. Damn fine job!
