Words cannot explain how beloved this man is in Philadelphia. Its impossible not to be inspired by his passion and honesty towards life in general.

[@claymorekwaramba6937]

Admiration and respect for B Dawkins transcends much more than team sports. This is from a lifelong Cowboys fan . I always liked his passion when he played . Then, I learned more about him in documentaries. What a humble dude and an inspirational man.

[@junejaffejoffer376]

WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH IN PHILLY. BECAUSE HE EMBODIES THE LOVE, PASSION, GRIT AND DRIVE OF THE CITY

Him and Ray helped me stay focused growing up in L.A. They were men's men, believers, high passion and positive at the same time.

[@SevenSevenSeven_]

I knew B Dawk WAS CRAZY. When I saw him walking around the ball in circles before the game started and he was saying “YA GOTTA COME SEE ME TODAY! YA GOTTA COME SEE ME TODAY!” 😂 the amazing Era of physical football!

[@mhzigga]

Giants fan, Dawkins was the definition of “bout that action”. Was an honor to watch him compete on the field

[@JTZIII]

Eagles fan here, I feel the same way about Strahan. But yeah, Dawkins is a class act in every sense of the word. Just listening to him speak makes you want to be a better person. He has rare character traits you don't see in the average human. Much love to you my brother.

[@dirkstuff5820]

Lifelong Eagles fan here, 80s kid, fortunate to have gotten to watch Dawk’s entire career. Never got to fulfill my dream of seeing a home game with him and Westbrook on the field. I’m not a religious person, but I absolutely admire the passion, dedication, and faith he’s carried through his life. Not only a GREAT player, but a GREAT person!

[@RSMoreno]

I am the same age as BDawk and was lucky to see him play in college (I went to an ACC school). I was stoked when my childhood favorite team drafted him. I didn’t think he was going to be a HoF caliber player though

[@DIYD]

Saw them in Washington with Donovan at the helm; good God!!

I'm just now starting the video, but I really hope they gave him a Super Bowl ring out of respect.

[@vinnyninja3552]

I haven't even started this, but I wanted to say, the reason I am an Eagles fan is because of this man. He was always very full of bliss off the football field but when he became the animal all know on that field, get out of his way! Love this man as a person and as a player, so you can imagine my excitement seeing this pop up in my feed. FLY EAGLES FLY!!! 🦅💚🦅💚🦅

What an encouraging testimony! I am a lifelong eagles fan and Brian has always been my favorite player. I went to the Giants/Eagles playoff game a few weeks back and was sporting my Dawkins jersey. I appreciate Brian for not only what he has done for football.....more importantly his investment in people and carrying the torch for the kingdom! Keep shining the light Brian!

As a new view of the podcast I have to say this was so impactful, uplifting and inspiring to see and hear B Dawk’s perspectives and outlook on life this was an instant classic episode.

[@aarondennis2285]

Lifelong bucs fan here. Watching Dawks all those years I had nothing but respect for him. He was the baddest dude in the 2000’s. My favorite matchup was always the Bucs/Eagles, especially in the post season. That was my starting point of knowing about B.D. After this podcast I have so much damn respect for that man. He is an inspiration as a man. ✌🏻✌🏻

[@mramirz922]

This was a great podcast, Dawkins was and is still my favorite Eagles of all time. His pre-game speeches were legendary, I still get hyped listening to them to this day. He was a pure leader for the defense all those years and gave it his all every dohgarn play. I got to meet him at a player meet and greet in 2003 when i was 15, and it felt like I met god that day. He shook everyone's hand and thanked us for being Eagles fans and supporting the team. He is truly an amazing player on the field and just as amazing of a person off the field.

[@30215PAPE]

My brother worked at a sporting goods store where he was doing a signing. I was at practice till 8PM, which was when his signing got done. My badass older brother asked Brian to just stay a little longer so I could meet him, and he did. He waited a half an hour longer just to meet a pop Warner kid. Love you Brian, you’re my hero, and thanks for this podcast. You continue to inspire and will forever be a bird.
