During the Patriots' Super Bowl parade yesterday, LeGarrette Blount and his teammate Brandon Bolden were spotted waving a T-shirt that said "Bitch Mode" on the front of it. The shirt was clearly created to allow Blount and Bolden to take a shot at Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch, who goes by the nickname, "Beast Mode." And it didn't sit well with at least one of Lynch's Seattle teammates Bruce Irvin, who took to Twitter to address it:
But after seeing all the hoopla that the T-shirt generated, Blount decided to address it on Twitter. He didn't really explain why he decided to wave the T-shirt around in the first place. But he did say that he has "100 percent respect" for Lynch and even @-ed Lynch in his tweet, just so Beast Mode would see it:
Something tells us Beast Mode isn't going to care. "100 percent respect" or not, Blount still held a T-shirt in his hands that said "Bitch Mode" on it and seemed to be well aware of what he was doing during the parade. But we'll be sure to let you know if Beast Mode responds.
