The Wonderful World of Former NFL Stars' 2nd Careers

[@HighTopJop]

I was playing ball in Jr. High *watching Frank Gore,* went to HS *watching Frank Gore,* went to College *watching Frank Gore,* went to the league and *played against Frank Gore* (final game of Candlestick), retired and was *watching Frank Gore STILL play.* facts Frank is a man that walks silently in his blessing. He’s hardly mentioned publicly for the work he put in.

[@justinmitiaev6411]

“I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.” Old man frank got someone watching over him

[@CSDonohue11]

That’s what’s up. Respect Due Salute My Brother 🙏

[@mvjr7758]

Gore was never really a flashy guy. At least in NFL, he was All Business. Media likes to twist guys around. But if your not doing wrong, they won't give that honor.

[@paulb4241]

I feel particularly blessed that my comment for Frank Gore is your 49th like. He's a great person. Gave his heart to the game

[@billblaski9523]

And who remembers his career in college. I think he had beaten out Clinton Portis AND Willis McGahee for the starting spot, but got injured in back-to-back seasons and missed the whole seasons

[@LordWafflestomp]

Primetime is hands down the best story out of this bunch. As someone who grew up around a town with an HBCU (Grew up in a town near Prairie View A&M) that never really had a team to draw in big crowds (except during homecoming), Primetime coming in and making a name for HBCU schools and stealing top recruits from WAY bigger schools, it could inspire more recruits to do the same and I love it and I'm here for it.

[@adgee5401]

It already has

[@amonrodriguez3518]

Maybe Gore can join his staff after knocking people out

[@KWILKSP]

I’ve been at PV since 2016 (just graduated). I’ve never seen as much hype surrounding Swac football in general until Prime Time started coaching JSU. It’s really dope man

[@SkunkApe407]

Neon Deon was as nasty as they got back in the day. Glad to see he's putting all that energy, skill, and experience back into the community. I really hope the kids he's coaching realize what a monumental opportunity they've been given.

[@LouieOcean2]

He should get a show the winning time. That would be amazing

[@kuyacopter]

Deion gave up his scholarship in his last year at FSU so that another player could have one (he was already in the mlb at the time). He always been a leader in the spotlight and behind the scenes, it’s awesome to see him do it at a larger scale now. Great video as always! Keep up the great work!

[@joevontebroadnax8121]

Why nobody is talking about keyshawn Johnson or John Lynch

[@josebrown5961]

That was a nice thing to do and I love 21 but what he did was no big deal. Many others have done that. Quite a few football players have had baseball aspirations and have gotten sweet deals from baseball teams that allowed them to drop the fb scholarship. His coaching at the HBCU is great, totally opposite the image he put forth as a player.

[@ParlayParri24]

Now that's a dope fun fact I didn't know about Prime time

Gore was a professional running back for 16 years and is now boxing?? Dude I’m scared for his brain legitimately

That's gonna be a long video. But Pat McAfee hands down is one of the most successful and memed former players ever and I love him for it.

[@diggsfather]

it's crazy to me that some think of McAfee as a media person primarily

I’m a Colts fan so McAfee has always been popular with our fan base. He even pulled up to my high school once in 2014 during a basketball game. He’s legit always been a cool dude

Being 2nd place in yards, 3rd place in Touchdowns while being 8th in catches really speaks to his greatness😎💪I wasnt a big Terrell Owens fan but even I cant deny his stats n abilities. Dude was a beast.

That is why he is my 2nd favorite Wide receiver of all-time

[@robertcabrera4760]

@@danielcoronado6483 dude is good no doubt. But I don't wanna see 50 year olds in the NFL😂😂. Its a young mans game, and he was the best to do it.

[@libertarian4323]

@@danielcoronado6483 If a player is a PITA/prima dona/lockeroom cancer, teams will only put up with him if he can perform at a high level. Once the PITA is only performing at a decent level, putting up with his BS is no longer worth the trouble. TO and similar PITA type players (e.g. Chad Ochocinco, Kaepernick) get kicked to the curb, while no-drama professionals like Frank Gore and Jerry Rice stick around years past their prime.

[@LosAngeles941]

If you wanted to do a part 2 on this, you can talk about nfl players turned congressmen like Steve largent, jack kemp, and burgess owens

I’d even add actors such as Thomas Q. Jones and Nnamdi Asomugha.

No it got old quick

[@SkunkApe407]

Prime Time Neon Deon was easily one of my favorite players as a kid, right alongside Bo Jackson. I have a soft spot for dual-sport athletes. That's why I kinda wish Kyler Murray would step it up a bit.

[@billblaski9523]

Lol he just finished his 3rd season, he still has plenty time to 'step it up'. I think he's surpassed the expectations set for him in his 3 years so far. He's improved every year, he has many years to go, my friend!

[@SkunkApe407]

@@billblaski9523 I don't know what you've been watching, but he hasn't played anywhere near what his draft position would imply. That isn't entirely on him though, but his contract antics aren't helping his case.

[@MrJDav15]

I love how you narrated the progression to get your main point which was prime. Dude was a superstar in every phase of his career. He is continuing to be an example to everyone while being genuinely himself and not self censoring. I love how you said what are you going to do in the 2nd phase of your life? Continue to talk about how it didn’t work out in the 1st phase or change it up in the 2nd. Never lose hope we can make our story how ever we want to.

*Video Idea:* Why do average NBA players (Phil Jackson, Riley, Kerr etc) become highly successful coaches/execs, but great players have nowhere near the success???

[@t.bruceford4098]

Coaching and playing are 2 different things. Coaching is teaching. Great players usually have something genetic that helps succeed. You cant teach genetics. So its hard for players to coach people who dont have the abilities.

Bro, been listing to you videos for about 2 years now. As someone in my own personal phase 2, I must say your point is spot on... I've spent too much time competing against the guy I used to be, between 21-40. Now that I'm over 40, been on cruise control and talking too much about 21-40. smh Time to start pushing forward. Great Video.

[@Ky3217]

Gotta be honest, I’ve never liked T.O. Even having gotten into the FCF this year and incidentally rooting for the team he was on for the first half of the season. But I can definitely buy that he was robbed of a first ballot hall of fame bid purely because voters didn’t like him.

[@MusicManSeanB]

I remember back in the day seeing in person, a young Steve McNair lead Alcorn State vs Howard University and Division I-AA All_American, future NFL quarterback, Jay Walker. After Howard went up 38-6, Steve McNair absolutely went off. McNair in the 2nd half threw for 300 yards, had 4 total touchdowns, only to lose to Howard in the end 48-42. It was at that moment, that McNair showed why he was not only a Heisman Finalist, but would be a future #3 overall pick in the 1995 NFL Draft. May he continue to R.I.P.

I think you should do more videos on HBCUs, updates or reviews. I like the ending about HBCUs.

[@Finnegan6674]

Me being a Chicago Bears fan my first thoughts on Dion getting that job was "He better do Walter proud" Walter being Walter Payton. And he has and then some. Great program, great coach and the press that the HBU's have needed and deserved for years. You could feel the love when Prime went down ill and wasn't on the sideline at the end of the season. What many do not know is how bad he was and that he almost lost his leg. Wishing all of these people the best but Coach Prime holds a special place in my heart now even if I hated him as a player...remember I am a Bears fan.

Incredible video as always. 48 years old and your question at the end really made me think. As others have said, I would love to see a part 2 or an episode in general on Pat MaAfee. I live in his home town of Plum Pa and also went to WVU. During the pandemic he donated to a lot of local businesses to keep them going. His telling of potentially getting tackled by Troy Polamalu always makes me laugh. James Harrison would be interesting too. He trains so hard and looks like the same as he did in his playing days and is also acting on a series on Starz. Not too bad for being undrafted and cut multiple times.
