Nate Burleson on Calvin Johnson's Crazy Bench Presses | Simms & Lefkoe: The Show Extended Interview

[@OptimusPrime-dz9md]

Burleson really is exceptional at speaking and telling stories.

[@oskarramirez31415]

Optimus Prime I hope I’m wrong but I feel like “for a black guy” was missing in this sentence.

[@oskarramirez31415]

@Bitcoin is LIT Google "coded language" before you snap, Mr. Triggered. I just find it interesting to see people struggle with calling a black man intelligent; often opting for words like "articulate', "interesting", "charismatic", or "thoughtful" instead.

[@S0ulinth3machin3]

@@oskarramirez31415 if someone is good at telling stories, you don't say "that person is intelligent". You say "that person is a good storyteller". Burleson didn't dazzle us with any sort of superior intellect in this video. He told some good stories and he did it very well. I enjoyed it.

[@oskarramirez31415]

@@S0ulinth3machin3 I never stated that he should be referred to as an intelligent person (though I've heard him say enough intelligent things to believe that he is), I was just making an observation about the way people describe black athletes, and black people in general.

[@OptimusPrime-dz9md]

@@oskarramirez31415 I was not implying "for a black guy" I was captivated by his stories and so I made the comment plain and simple. He is better at telling stories than Simms and Lefkoe and in my opinion better at telling stories than anyone I can think of at this moment. I didn't initially respond because I ignore racist trolls but it seems you actually think that is what I meant.

[@busyrand]

Great nugget about breathing and having "late hands" as a receiver. I've been pleasantly surprised by Nate Burleson's post-NFL Career and always enjoy him during broadcasts.

Yep and is the exact reason they don't have super bowl championship. Ur players are only as good as u pay them. Regardless of how much talent they have money is a definite motivator

[@18Dnick]

Calvin Johnson is the greatest wide receiver of all time

[@RamboSlice1995]

I can listen to his talks all day dawg

[@MattPawlowski]

Megatron is the best and most gifted WR ever. Longevity and health are his only knocks against him. Had he been as fortunate as the others, there's no doubt he'd be widely considered the best. Plus look at the surrounding talent he had compared to the others. Everyone knew the ball was going to Calvin and double and triple teams just couldn't stop him.

[@Langley-Outdoors]

You da best

[@Nobo35]

Randy is the most gifted, short or long term.

[@MattPawlowski]

Nah. He couldn't cut across the middle and absorb the hits Megatron could.

[@Nobo35]

Randy had the most raw talent ever.

[@MattPawlowski]

Raw speed* for sure.

[@MrAndrewaziz]

Megatron is in the same convo as Moss, TO, and Jerry: change my mind

[@joerogaine7984]

What is there to change? I believe megatron and moss were more explosive than the other 2 though
