Take a look back at one of the most passionate Pro Football Hall of Fame speeches in recent memory by former star defensive back Deion "Primetime" Sanders.
I'm in tears right now. I use to be ashamed of my parents because my mom was a maid and my dad was a janitor. Neither graduated from high school. I'm Registered Nurse now. There struggle s motivated me to do what they didn't have the opportunity to do. This really hit home.
God bless you! This speech should have so many more views. Prime is a real one for being so honest about his childhood and what motivated him. Gotta admit I was cutting some serious onions too!
I’m glad you realize that our parents have made great sacrifices. My grandma had an eighth grade and education but she made sure we were all college educated so I’m glad that you realize the sacrifices your parents may God bless you.❤❤❤
That means you have great parents. They made sacrifices so you didn't have to. My dad worked two full time jobs to keep a roof over our heads. I never understood why he drank so much coffee but now as an adult, I understand why he did, lol. He didn't graduate high school either, but did his best to take care of me and my siblings. I wouldn't be the man I am now if it wasn't for my dad. Also, congratulations on becoming an RN! That's a great accomplishment!
Hey guys, he was a great player deserves the Hall of Fame but I think that whole speech was ego. I mean to bust out his mother like that in front of the world to apologize I don’t know.
Facts!!! Watch his video when he was in the hospital 9 months ago, even when he thought death was lurking he was still letting God speak through him. & look at him now! Still pushing for change. God’s child.
Prime Time has never changed . His faith, confidence and marketing ability has always been his trademark. He also happens to be an eloquent speaker, mentor and motivator. JSU was blesse to have the caring man as the Head coach to their football team. 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️💪🏾💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾💕💕
The glory of a child is their parents (Prov. 17:6)....those who mock parents especially to their children are mocking God the Lord maker of heaven and earth. amen.
@ Dr. Edwconr. Unfortunately that’s not always the case for every child. Some parents are merely portals/gateways for us to enter this realm through. My biological parents Never Once taught me Anything constructive, or helped me with anything. only abused me in every way, tore me down without any stimulation for healthy growth development. Therefore my innate Creator, having favor upon me, redesigned i and became both my Mother/Father. All Praises To The Most High. 🌞😇🙏🏼🙌🏼💪🏼
What's interesting is that after watching this speech and understanding his passion, he's doing it again as a coach, putting it all on the line, in a sense starting down a new path. He doesn't need the money and he's grossly underpaid at Jackson State but he doesn't care because it's about the game and about winning through dedication. This is a very special person.
I'm not ashamed to admit, I'm shedding tears for you prime, because my mother did the same thing for a college, I'm not in a position to give it back to my mother on a money level but I sure as hell give it back by how she taught me to treat people.👍👍👌🏾👌🏾
Mr Sanders speaks more eloquently and with more passion than most pastors. I appreciate this man for so much. Especially for what he’s doing for young black men🙏🏽
+Damian Manzo got me too. that's why I love primetime cause he's not just the best DB/PR of all time, but he's also a perfect example of how to use life's experiences to become a better person
that.damian. kid No. That's is all black athletes ever say. "I'm going to help my moma" or "I am going to do this for Moma." They act as if their mothers is their wife.
Deion made me cry talking about his Momma, GOD knew Deion’s Momma was strong enough to raise DEION. GOD makes NO MISTAKES, thank you MOMMA for sharing PRIME TIME with us!! STAY BLESSED!
If you're here because of JSU & now Colorado! He's not new to this but True to this! You know now, he's about to shock the world again. Not as player but now a COACH!
Thank you Jesus to live a private affair intelligent man that was a nice week I’m proud of you but your mom needs to do and they did to get up take it out of me as one of my fans go pick it up with me I’d have my first graded it can you stop crying too
First if you compare any corner to sanders thats playing now and saying he will be better go get a mental evaluation seriously this man came back and played with the ravens at damn near 40 and led the league in pics at one point. Prime time baby..
Such a great player and such a great man. He has such great character that's why he is my favorite player of all time. God bless you and love you Deion Sanders!
I can’t stop laughing at the statue! Who is that? Every time they show it it’s gets laughing so hard just thinking about what Deion is really thinking about it! Lmao
And to think his true calling hadn't even been realized then. No he's showing young men the way and that was his true calling all along. God Bless you Coach Prime 🙏
2021 This speech never gets old. When I feel like there is no hope in my life. I myself was a shame of me cleaning bathroom, teenage mom. People talking down on me. Today I can say this video is my come to along with a little faith. That for ever set back is a come back. One of my favorite NFL player. Thank you Mr. Sanders:)
Majority of his speech was about his Mama, and that's unique, authentic and clarifying as far as the backstory to the persona we call PRIME TIME! LEGENDARY speech, LEGENDARY player, LEGENDARY leader and more importantly, an even MORE LEGENDARY SON TO HIS MAMA!
Wow.....what a speech. Kudos to Deon for realizing how he got to where he is...that is God and the others who helped him in his journey along the way. God bless you. May God continue to bless you.
As an avid watcher of Well Off Media RU-vid channel it’s crazy to see them as young as they were. Coach Prime was up there preaching. He was a coach then as he is now.
I always loved Dion his energy has always resonated with me much love & respect beautiful dedication to those who made you you a great person CONGRATULATIONS YOU DESERVE IT PRIME TIME 4 LIFE😘
I love this guy. As an Atlanta Falcons fan, I love that he entered the Hall as a Falcon. I love that he has never stopped learning, that he has humility, that he has wisdom and has chosen to serve the youth within his reach to try to make a difference, to sow positivity, to try to help the youth of today know what it REALLY MEANS TO BE A MAN. Deion Sanders is a great American.
One of the best speeches I've ever heard..my man Dion..the players in back then played with passion. Total different players today. They have nothing on players in the 90s, 80s, 70' and 60's.. Today everyone trying to showboat, with a dance or beating on their chest and it look so bad..Dion showboats was natural and gave u the chills. Probably the best NFL player of all time. Definitely the most exciting of all.. And he's representing God and Jesus. Primetime..
Their doubting coach know because of what he's doing at Colorado they're saying it's not going to work and that he doesn't know what he's doing on and on Coach prime is one of the most honest people I have ever seen if you listen to what he's saying he will tell you what he's going to do and you can run with and talk trash about him or his family or you can sit back and watch him show you . Because that's what he does "Primetime" will definitely show you! #SKOBUFFS 💪💪 #WECOMING
