CNBC referencing Honey Badger Video - Kernen, Cramer,Quintania, all quoting lines from Randall's video. No ref to LSU or TM7 however. Pretty hilarious video blasted into national attention thanks to TD's MikeLinebacker

It was viral many months before TD.

But it went mainstream because of MLB/TD/LSU.

Madden '12 had voiceover work done by Ben Affleck among others.

He actually references the Honey Badger in that commercial. Way, WAY before TM7 took off with it.

I don't know how much more mainstream EA Sports & Ben Affleck can be.

Yeah, I remember it being a pretty big thing 6-8 months before TD. In fact, I always thought the ONLY reason MikeLinebacker did the mashup was because it was so well-known. It wasn't like he plucked some youtube video out of obscurity. He picked it BECAUSE everyone already knew about it.

The NCAA keeps warning LSU that the shirts have to stop. What can LSU do about it except ask people to stop.
