Marshawn Lynch Takes the Injury Cart Sideshow Back to Berkeley, 10 Years Later

Whoever decided to line Marshawn Lynch's appearance with real live human beings, though, probably should have thought that over. He nearly takes out half of them.

If there's anything more entertaining than Marshawn Lynch's career as one of the better running backs to grace the game of football, it's his retirement. This man simply knows how to draw the nectar out of life better than you ever could.

Oakland's native son was just hanging out in The Bay, giving back to the community, generally being awesome, and taking care of his mom—as he is wont to do—when apparently somebody at his alma mater tapped him to let him know that 10 years had elapsed since he took to Cal, Berkeley's field on a golf cart and went dummy AF at that injury cart sideshow. So they gave him the keys to his old whip at last night's game between Cal and the Washington Huskies, and set him free.

Now, let's not get it twisted: unlike what those Walnut Creek pundits are saying, this is not ghost riding. This is just some lightweight sideshow Town Business. Whoever decided to line his cart appearance with real live human beings, though, probably should have thought that over. He nearly needed to use the cart to haul half of them away to a medic.
