Awesome! If it gets posted to ESPN and Fox Sports, it should be at a million views plus in no time.

Congrats! If you can do it without resetting your view total I would get a watermark on the full duration of the video, stat. Also YouTube only pays if you select the correct options for your account.https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/72857?hl=en

Closing in on 400,000.

I e-mailed the link to ProFootballTalk*, Deadspin and The Big Lead. Let's get this to a mil.

(*ProFootballTalk doesn't embed videos, but Mike Florio might perhaps write up a stupid reactionary post about the potential injury risk of the post-kick portion of the video.)

Cool, thanks. It's funny to see how many people and sites are trying to co-opt the video or to see some site give credit to the video to some other random site that ran it uncredited. As of last night, if you google Marshawn Lynch kickball, it went 9 pages deep with various links or versions of the video. FoxSports is supposed to run it on tv Monday sometime. It was on the front page of ESPN yesterday, too, but they used their own shortened version with a Bear Insider stamp on it.

Betcha Marshawn would have given a nice interview after if he'd been asked.

Nope. I talked to him really briefly for another story we're doing but he kept it really brief.

The Big Lead posted it this morning in its daily roundup:

NFL.com picked it up:

And this publication owned and founded by a Cal alum just posted this:

Anyone know if someone views the embedded video if it shows in youtube view counts or do they have to use the youtube link to open it separately to be counted? It's up to 632,000 now and the NFL Network asked to use it on tv, too.

A couple friends saw it on SportsCenter but it wasn't on any of the ones I recorded.

I'm very sure that the embedded views count. Otherwise, how would you have been getting so many views?

People using the youtube link to open it to full screen like I often do? That opens up a separate page directly to youtube.

Agree
But not sure how it works if ESPN edits video
Probably depends on what type of permission you gave to them MB

Yeah, I'm sure it's not counted with ESPN because they edited and posted their own version of the video without our credits at the end but rather with a stamp crediting us on theirs and it's not the original video.

Saw it on NFL Total Access tonight in the last ten minutes of the show.

Re. monetizing, if you're only paid fractions of a cent and only for adds opened, doesn't seem like the meager revenue is worth putting people through the hassle of making people watch commercials every time they watch your video.

MB, you're a much more thoughtful and generous Bear than I, that's for sure.
