Marshawn Lynch - The Antidote for Richard Sherman

The greatest interview of media day bar non - Dion Sanders with Marshawn
Lynch. The coolest guy in the room. Left the podium within 5 minutes and went
and hid behind curtain. Sanders tracked him down. He looked like the unibomber
with his hood up.

Anecdote?

I remember Lynch being great at the combine. When did he get difficult? In Buffalo, or not until he got to Seattle?

 

"I'm just about that action boss"

That may have been Ton Loc.

 

Many of you are too young to remember a guy named Duane Thomas who starred for the Cowboys. He reminds me of him.

 

Duane Thomas was a good running back and an even better football player.

 

Duane, are you that fast?

Evidently.

 

Come on, somebody come up with something better than "How long have you been a black QB?"

 

I can see that but Thomas seemed a bit more aloof and farther out there. Lynch
seems locked in but just does not want to deal with the media.

Given the era I also think that it was highly possible that drugs played
a roll in Thomas erratic behavior.

Thomas was part of one hell of a backfield with Mercury Morris at West Texas State.

 

and Calvin Hill with the Cowboys

 

PFWA issues strongly worded letter. "Extremely disappointed." Lynch may never recover.

I saw it all packaged only for TV, but I thought it was damn hilarious.

There are only 105 other player profiles to do this week, in addition to zillions of team-related, trend or other. They can live without Marshawn Lynch.
