I'm a Raiders fan but Patrick Willis is my favorite LB I have seen played and is one of the few players I'll actually look up to.

[@mr.cheesekake9755]

He grew up in the town next to mine. (His school hasn’t been good since he left and our school are always state contenders, it used to be the other way around)

[@arthurbrunelle9828]

Love these stories.... Very inspiring... Thanks!!

He's forever my favorite NFL player of all time 😁😁😁

[@d.balbas6952]

Patrick Willis is a BEAST. Why so emotional with the "Forever" & "All time" Best LB? Top 3... Edit - maybe *Like if you were pro you wouldn't know how to answer questions from reporters. Stay Koo. I know it don't mean anything...just saying

[@mav367]

DB Balbas there are 2 I’d put above him 1 for sure and that’s Ray mf Lewis and maybe Lawrence Taylor

[@jasonmauldin79]

Yo! Just found your page last night, I dig it man. Normally I don’t like a bunch of uplifting BS, I like yours, I’m saying that earnestly. Yours seems to come from a genuine place where you want to see all of us become better versions of ourselves. Your positivity isn’t clickbaitey, it’s real. So thank you, and keep the videos coming my man. Yes I’d like to see the video of the duo as well.

[@markelkhoury8168]

Ayy, Flem - I SERIOUSLY wish I could applaud this intro even harder. Cheers to nothing but continued health, wealth and success to your boy, and you as well, of course. Cheers and love to all! May this year of 2020, the year of perfect vision, be all our best years yet!

[@metroboomin599]

Crazy how Flem has done hundreds of these types of videos and there’s still hundreds of these types of stories left 🙏

[@jerrymoore4102]

He is a HoF, I remember watching this cat play and it was like the 2nd coming of ray Lewis it was crazy.

[@joej5789]

Pat was just as good as Ray Lewis

[@layne3braysha]

I just discovered this channel today, and can't stop watching. Very insightful stories about these athletes. I love the psychological background. Two thumbs up 👍👍
