Marshawn Lynch is about to take this Super Bowl to another level — while pissing off the NFL in the process.
‘Money Lynch’ is raking in the dough this trip — he won’t speak to the media — but he did sit down with Maxim to discuss his new clothing line, and Tom Brady’s wife, Gisele Bundchen.
Well, Tom’s wife certainly has fantastic style. As for Tom, I would like to see how he looks in some Beast Mode!
Lynch discussed his new clothing line, and the inspiration behind it.
This is how I know: I went to Starbucks and there was a guy in there working. I don’t drink coffee, but he was in there putting together some mocha lattes or something. And he saw me and he was like, ‘Beast Mode, this for you! I’m going into Beast Mode!’ This guy was mixing up whatever coffee drinks he makes. I was just like, ‘Damn, this is a guy who’s taking his job and maximizing it to best of his potential.’ And I realized that’s exactly what Beast Mode is. It’s something off the field that can come out of just anybody or that is just in somebody.
When I go speak to these kids through my foundation and am able to sit down and tell them some of the things that I’ve been through, they can look up and relate to me and they can understand the feelings I had that are similar to what they’re going through and feeling. They can connect to me and the conversations we can have, it’s not something you can just make up. Beast Mode ain’t something you can sugarcoat or water down. It’s all just natural.
Lynch told Maxim that whe he was younger, playing Pop Warner, his coach and Delisa his mother used to call him ‘Man Child.’ Lynch said he was a little scrawny dude.
To see me actually playing with the kind of heart that I have and how physical I was, she used to say, ‘That boy a man child.’ As I got older, it evolved and one of my boys said, ‘Damn boy, you a straight beast.’ And then it just kind of formed into that, you know.
