    What big, important question did they have that wasn't answered on Friday?

    So you're equating "everyone else" to the Commissioner of the NFL?

    You think he's busier during Super Bowl week than the coaches and players?

    This is so great.

    The player should sit there all week long and answer whatever weird, wild question comes from one of 2,000 reporters.

    The damn commissioner of the league, after probably the worst season of off-field headlines in league history, can do a one-timer where he gets all snippy to questions he doesn't like, and then he can wash his hands of it.

    That's mighty white of you, tony.

    And what big, important question did they have for Lynch?

    They had a lot of questions for Lynch, none of which were answered. Goodell answered all of the questions on Friday. Don't know how you could have missed that and claim to be informed.

    So tony ... why does NBC interview players before each SNF game? All those players have a media availability session during the week, why doesn't the telecast just pick that up?

    Didn't miss it moron. Why does Goodell only have to speak once?

    The great majority of those interviews are actually done during the week -- usually on Friday or Saturday.

    OK yeah ... and? It's pretty obvious the commissioner has (or should have) a greater responsibility.

    The problem is Goodell is a dunce who can't answer quickly and think on his feet. That has been apparent to everyone who has ever dealt with him. He was scared.
