Marshawn Lynch famously doesn't like doing interviews with the media. He's explained why he doesn't like talking to the media. And yet he has to, per the terms of his, and every, NFL contract. Everyone has to talk to the media, if requested, or at least make themselves available to speak to the media for five minutes.
So when Marshawn "talks" to the media, which he doesn't always do (he's been fined $100,000 by the league for refusing to speak to the media), he's often difficult with them. He'll give the same one-word answer to every question, or he'll give the same one-sentence response every time. A select recounting:
- Thanks for asking
- I'm thankful
- I'm just here so I won't get fined
- You know I'm here
- [He just lays into the media]
Seeing Marshawn Lynch pine for Flo from Progressive is just...weird. But seeing him crack up at the Skittles questions is hilarious. "Do you wish the football field was 200 yards so you could have a 200 yard touchdown?" Gold.
