It started with one tweet and turned into a Twitter firestorm. Delisa Lynch, mother of Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch, is very active on Twitter most days. She, like many of us, watched Richard Sherman’s introductory press conference Tuesday and had an interesting response to it.

So rest easy, Raiders fans. Beast Mode will absolutely be pounding the rock for Oakland — and only Oakland — in 2018. Though, based on the tape, it looks like Beast Mode 2.0 might soon be joining his big bro as a nightmare for opposing NFL defenders.
