I was a little surprised on his take on Lynch not speaking to the media. Here is a one of the many statements he made.

He's right on a couple of different levels...this is probably the first time I've agreed with him on something.

It's like I woke up and took crazy pills this morning to see the amount of support Lynch is getting.

frick Steven A. Media always gets pissy when people do not want to talk to them.
Also, notice who the media calls the "good guys" those are the ones who power their asses. The guy could be a wife beater or child molester for all they know, but he is a "good guy" for talking to the media.

I feel the same with the amount of hate he's getting.

How is Marshawn wrong? He showed up, talking is optional.

I want to be surprised by him taking that stance on the ML situation, but he is in the media, so this is the stance he's "supposed" to take I guess.

I figured he'd be all "MarshOHHN Lynch is a close personal friend of mine. We played red light, green light at my grandmaw's house growing up. Leave the man ALONE."

Its a different generation of viewers - now being disrespectful and degrading the sport and fans that pay you the millions you earn is considered funny. The media is eating this shite up because they know that everyone under 30 loves this crap attitude.

If his teammates and people all around the league support him so damn much, then take the same baby approach and pout for 5 minutes without answering a single question

Such a petty thing for an NFL fan to get bothered by. It's quite funny to watch.

I can't believe that people actually care enough about this to either support Lynch or be angry at him.

It's hilarious to me.

Personally, I think it's an elaborate troll job in order to gain attention to sign some endorsements.

I guess I shouldn't be shocked at Trent Dilfer's support of Lynch , he is such a Seattle homer. Normally you would hear you have to be professional blah blah coming out of his pie hole

No, but it makes for great discussion with idiots on sports message boards...other wise we'd have to talk about the resurgence of the Cavs or how the top seeded teams in each conference are squaring off in the Super Bowl.

People don't like it because it's just childish and immature behavior. That's all there is to it.
