I question if the NFL is acting ethically in forcing it.
I question if there is actual consideration attributable to interviews.

Wasn't the point. He's an entertainment figure who is going to get grilled by
Cougnine33-31

Is the entertainment on the field or behind a table?

The same thing happens in other entertainment venues

Its in his contrac, so respec that. Players get what, 55% of media revenues?

True. But it shouldn't be. He's fulfilling his contract
RedlandsCoug
1/29/15 2:20pm
It shouldn't be? Then maybe the players should give 5 or 10% of the media money

Contract is pretty clear as is historical enforcement.
Skipshot

What choice does the NFL have? If they don't enforce it they are in breach

Exactly. People need to remember Marshawn has earned millions of dollars

It's not the media requiring him to be there it's the NFL

My guess is if it weren't forced he'd be more willing to do one every now and

He gets a free education and millions of dollars to play a game

Because he's good at it. The field is important.

We do apply the same standards. It's called fulfilling your contract. He's paid

Riggt by the NFL who isn't paying him.

He is paid by the Seahawks for abiding by the terms of his contract.

Typo....The Seahawks are paying marshawn to win.

do you understand the difference between can and should.
RedlandsCoug

Glad you're backing down a little by implementing the semantics game
Skipshot

The contract doesn't say he has to substantively answer every question.
RedlandsCoug
1/29/15 2:56pm
No, but it does say "cooperate." If my kids "cooperated" with me like that
Skipshot

Fair

No they aren't paying him to win. He gets his regardless of whether or not they

I think you respect him because you're cheering for the Seahawks...

are you claiming it's less the interview itself...

I think it has BECOME less about the interview.

I don't think its arrogance with him. I think it's a case of

I feel exactly the opposite. I used to like him, but his act is tired.

His interviews can be funny, but he needs to grow up and act like a professional

I can't believe people are actually standing up for Lynch in his ivory tower.
