Former NFL star and current NFL Network analyst, Deion Sanders, took to social media on Sunday with a long Father's Day rant. The rant features a list of examples from his own life of what does and doesn't make a man, like sleeping with two women at one time...

quote:
Just because I have a penis doesn't mean that I'm a Man. It simply means I'm a male. I didn't become a man at the age of 18 or 21 when the world deemed me to be legal to drink,fight for my beloved country and to enter a night club. I didnt become a man when my 1st or 2nd child was born. I didnt become a man when i made my 1st or 10th MILLION. I didnt become a man when i won superbowls and played in the world series. I didn't become a man when I slept with 2 woman at a time. I didn't become a man when I had Lamborghinis and several cars in my driveway. I didn't become a man when I bought 100s of suits with gators to match. I didn't become a man when many thought I was the man. I didn't become a man when you called me a role model but I was a model playing a role. I became a man when I accepted responsibility of my life,my ways and others. I became a man when I learned to love me and forgive me. I became a man when I stopped allowing the pain of yesterday to influence me today. I became a man when I realized I don't have to be the perfect father but a present father. I became a man when I learned not to love something that didnt have the capacity to love me back. When I put away childish,simple minded,egotistical speaking,Understanding and thinking I then became a man. I'm certainly not a perfect man but I'm a Good man who's playing his position of a Father like he played the corner. TBE! How could I give more to a game or a fan than I give to my children. When we celebrate Fathers day it means more to me than just a text,tweet,Instagram or email. I had a biological father and a wonderful step father that are deceased. We never exchanged the simple words I LOVE YOU so I don't take this day for granted. All the men that are real Fathers & real Men HAPPY FATHERS DAY. To all the mothers playing both positions HAPPY FATHERS DAY and to all the Grandparents,Uncles and Friends stepping up and in the battle to raise these kids right HAPPY FATHERS DAY. GOD BLESS. #Truth #Deionsfamilyplaybook @owntv Saturday 8C. @RevJahwar @traceyeedmonds

This is all well and good but did you guys see him act like a biiiiotch on that bear gryllis celebrity survival show. He was preachin on that show too. Preachin about survival and over coming, all the while acting like a first class pussy. straight up embarrassing. "yo bruh, I ain't touchin no snake." (as it lays there deadr'n'shite.) Channing Tatem made him look like a school girl. literally.
