Him sounding like a broken record is the quickest way to get the media out of his face.

I would have thought that if someone wanted some meaningful insight into the game, they'd avoid Lynch... The reporters should be asking questions to the other guys that want to talk. Unless they were :gasp: wanting these interviews all along.

Exactly, he doesn't want to talk to the media...plain and simple.
I get that, but if people let lynch slide then where does it stop? Someone doesn't want to do this anymore or do that anymore even tho they signed that contract...
If they don't like certain things then don't agree to them beforehand is my only problem

talking to the media is a means of giving answers and thoughts out to the fans of this game which support the NFL and their billions of dollars. Marshawn lynch is a running back making a career of probably 40 millions plus soon by running the ball 22 times a game. You show up at the podium unwilling to have any resemblance of a decent human being but you all about that charity action. Go frick yourself. You are a gigantic douche bag that can't give logical and simple answers to reasonable questions from the media for fans that love your team and support you on the field and off. You are entitled to act whatever the fricking way you want. CONGRATULATIONS. I'm entitled to my opinion of you. You are a conceded egotistical gigantic bitch. You want to limit your responses to certain types of questions fine, but frick, at least act like a decent human being. You're happy to be here, happy for the fans, look forward to playing the game and helping the team try to win a super bowl.

This is very true

I was thinking about that yesterday. How would you word the contract to make sure the players give actual answers. I couldn't think of anything without a loophole.
Stephen A even said you can't control or make the players give a certain answer. That's pretty much impossible

He is following the terms of his contract and what he agreed to.

When that happens, I bet it'll be a huge speech about the Appalachian Mountains and its wildlife. Just completely off topic and a 5 minute answer that fills up his entire interview time

If I ever get that upset over something that petty, I hope a friend kicks me in the shin.

And this is exactly why it's in their NFL contract. The media is the main reason Marshawn Lynch has the type of lifestyle he has now

What has the media done to turn Lynch into one of the best NFL rbs?
How much money has the media paid him?

Serious? So the tv contracts and all that don't dictate how much lynch gets paid?

as passionate as he wants to be about sticking to his douchebag guns and not giving reasonable answers to questions is the same passion i have for my hatred of him. You can have passion over a WR dropping a ball but you can't have passion over a player acting like a douche in front of all the cameras? I'm a fan of the NFL. I hate Seattle. Lynch being a bitch fuels my soul. Don't even get me started on Russel Wilson now.... between the two of them back to back at the podium, holy fricking shite... i hope they move the seahawks to oklahoma as well.
and i don't have irl friends that can actually kick me in the irl shins.

Exactly.
He's just very childish.
