A lot of people defend the guy with how he doesn't talk to the media and what not. But to me he really seems like a little kid or a gangster who thinks he's above the league. He grabbed his crotch yet again on tv after wanting to wear his gold cleats. If he keeps it up should he warrant suspension?

I actually like the guy. He's basically telling the NFL to fuck off every chance he gets. It's kind of funny.

Plus he does a lot of work in the community, much more than an average player.
 
Probably every team the Seahawks beat because their defense can't stop Marshawn Lynch is sick of Marshawn Lynch.

Meh. I know he's a great player. And obv never can he be suspended for the super bowl. But I don't see it as him saying fuck off anymore. He just is dumb as a box of rocks.
 
Yesterday just before the game I was coming home from my boxing gym and stopping at the liquor store I heard on the radio something about the league threatening to suspend because of the color of his shoes or something. First I had heard anything about that.

I have never heard of him going around and beating people up off the field or anything like that.

I suppose if the camera was on me virtually all the time it would catch me scratching my own balls when the itch from time to time.
 
More players need to be showing their displeasure with the NFL. They are the ones who are dumb as rocks most of the time.

You can't go around wearing any gear you like. Like the NFL or not, it's a rule that makes sense.

Okay well, didn't it get resolved or something?

Isn't his team, the Seahawks, responsible to say "hey Marshawn, these are the color of the shoes that we were with the Seahawks uniform? Those are the league rules, and if you won't abide by them, we're not going to put you in the game."

Solution seems simple. He wants to play, he's got to play wearing the shoes the team tells him that he has to wear. I mean they wouldn't let him go out on the field wearing the uniform of the opponent, would they?

The whole thing seems pretty stupid.

And actually you'd do yourself a favor to educate yourself on marshawn off the field. He has had many issues off the field.

So if the team says it's okay to wear a vikings helmet, not the NFL team, the NFL has no say? Or he can wear gold shoes, the other guy can wear an arm band hat says kill the QB, and a third guy who wears Michael Jordon cleats?

It's not the SSHL, it's the NFL. The Sea Hawks aren't going to suspend him in a game like that..So to answer your question I have no idea what they would allow..maybe to them it's okay for their player to buck the system.

And its obvious because Seattle didn't seem to care he wanted Gold Shoes.
 
I don't mind him......but I only have to deal with him in limited doses.

So he doesn't like to talk to the media??? Who cares.

Neither does Greg Popovich. And that guy takes it a step further and actually goes out of his way to be an ass to some guys! (I did see the piece ESPN did on him and Craig Sager .......Pop actually is a nice guy off the court).

No I think it's up to the team to uphold the league standards. If a player won't abide by the league standards then the team should not let that player play.

The only exception is if a player wants to, instead of wearing his own name, wear the name "He Hate Me," I think that should be allowed.

Only one "He Hate Me" per team though.

Maybe instead of wearing gold shoe, Marchon Lynch should just differentiate himself by wearing the name "He Hate Me."
 
First off look at Seattle's coach. Do you think Pete Carrol would care about gold shoes? He could wear pink patented leather shoes and he wouldn't care. He's not the GM or the owner, but it's his team..It would surprise me if he gave Lynch the idea of wearing gold shoes..
 
Of course, the one incident I did like was when Charles Martin displayed a white hand-towel with a list of Bears offensive players' numbers that he wanted to get. That was pretty funny at the time.
 
I don't get why it's the NFLs right to force players to talk to the media. Pretty fucked up in my opinion.

The weird thing is that it is so unlike Pete Carroll to turn a blind eye away from a rules violation.
 
Best thing ever..

I like that he doesn't talk to the media. There's really no reason for it whatsoever. You either say something clich? and boring or you say something stupid out of anger and then social blows up about it. Either way it's pointless. Popovich and Belicheck and all those guys are smart as hell to not say anything. Give them nothing.

As for the crotch grab celebration, it's stupid and he's been told repeatedly to not do it. Clearly he's going to keep doing it. Not sure if they can do it, but they should tell him he'll be suspended 2 games the next time he does it. I wish the NFL would let guys celebrate a lot more but I can't think of a good reason to defend the crotch grab celebration.
 
I didn't know that him grabbing his crotch was a "thing." Maybe he's channeling the late pop singer Michael Jackson, I don't know.


As far as him talking to the media, when a game is over I turn on something else. I don't care what any player or coach has to say; the game is done.
