    You didn't see the post where I said who posted it?

    Are you Rich Walsh?

    Oh I see - your first post said "Zagoshe" - to which I was going to say, um, you will have to point out where I said that because I don't recall ever saying that. I just said he should be fined

    No problem with him being fined, it's the hysteria that goes along with it that's comical.

    Oh, I think he kinda does. I think Lynch very much wants to be noticed and seen and puzzled over and talked about. Randy Moss, as anti-media and misunderstood as they come until he joined the media, wasn't much different.

    The all time extreme example might be Bill Walton

    I don't know why people object. I can only take them at their words.

    I know why I object - because it doesn't seem like that big of an imposition to me to talk about football with other humans for five minues.
     
  7. Let's say the Seahawks win Sunday and Lynch is the biggest reason why. Let's say he rushes for about 150 yards and scores three touchdowns. Does the assembled media not vote him MVP out of some shitty principle?

  9. I would say I agree with you but then I look at the baseball HOF voting....

    Don't forget fan Internet voting is part of the Super Bowl MVP process now.

    I wonder if George Hendrick would be a media villian in this day and age because he never did interviews.

    Here's the video Rhody was talking about:


    After watching this, I'm pretty sure we can call the social anxiety thing bullshit. I found him extremely funny, charming and engaging in this video.

    I think he is doing it because he assumes if he keeps doing it like this, people will stop asking him to show up. Like when your parents used to give you a chore to do and you would do it poorly, hoping they wouldn't ask again.

    In other words, he is just being childish because he doesn't want to do something he has to do. Welcome to being an adult.
