"I'm Just Here So I Won't Get Fined Boss"

I agree, it is ridiculous, it is also the 24-7 news cycle. I don't like it, I don't like what it has become, but it has become that because there are consumers for it.

 

This is a weird tangent for the Marshawn Lynch thread, but re the "experts" on snow, the only thing they missed was they forecast the snow for 15-20 miles west of where it landed. Long Island got buried by more than two feet.

 

Unavailable for comment:

 

And 25 years ago, a meteorologist could be off by 20 miles and everyone would shrug and say, "those guys are never right," and move along. But in this day and age of maniac news directors cutting into regular programming and putting 17 idiots out along highways, downtown, at the airport, at the Mayor's office, up your ass and "giving YOU nonstop coverage THROUGH THE NIGHT AS WE FOLLOW THIS HISTORY MAKING, BABY-MAKING, ASSFUCKER OF A BLIZZARD!!!"...well, when you're wrong, it amplifies it a bit. Why ya' think those knobs at The Weather Channel started naming these storms? Helps with Hype. Way easier to say, "Winter Storm Bruno is coming! Take shelter!"

 

The cognitive stress on Boston TV local news this week has been hilarious. Homerism for our beloved Pats at the Super Bowl has been forced to take a back seat to TV's actual favorite event, Big Weather, but the stations already paid to send the "talent" out to Phoenix so they sent an advance guard with more to come now that the emergency's over -- and all media availability for the Bowl is over, too.

 

So Lynch finally speaks and fat ass, old, white reporter Bart Hubbach mocks the way he speaks. Asks if it can be translated to English.

 

A story with some of the "questions" being thrown Lynch's way yesterday:
The Marshawn Lynch media circus has reached a pathetic level - Seattle Seahawks | 710 ESPN Seattle

Today, Lynch actually spoke. Judging from my Seahawk fan friends on FB, it was a huge success.

But not racist, remember that. He'd be saying that if Lynch were green, purple or orange, amirite?

I've been on Lynch's side, but 10x that now. Bart's reporter buddies should be laying him out on that one.

 

In the end I do think Lynch is being a bit of a dick, he could me more cordial about it. But he has talked, just not to the people the pompous, holier than thou lazy writers think he should have. There is Pittsburgh moron who believes he should be suspended Sunday.

Can anybody provide me the link to one groundbreaking story that one of these twats has written over the last 3 days? By not talking, Lynch has made himself the biggsest story of the week. Have more words been written about anyone else?

 

I thought Lynch was being a dickhead, but if he really doesn't want to talk to the media because he doesn't want to take any credit for himself, then I find that admirable. And he really isn't being a dick, because if the NFL would allow him to just skip the sessions, he wouldn't act like that. He just wouldn't go.

 

UC Berkeley ought to be proud of Mr Lynch

 

Given that it is UC Berkeley they probably are.
