Seattle Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch Talks With the Media After Getting Fined--and it's Hilarious

It is no secret that Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is all about that action. The man does not care to do a lot of talking when it comes to the game. He'd rather just go play and leave it all on the field. So when it comes time to talk with the media about the game, his contract, or anything else he says little if anything at all.

However, after getting hit with a $50,000 fine for not talking with the media he decided to talk with them after practice Wednesday.

He spoke with the media for about ten minutes, but he didn't just sit there and answer whatever questions the media asked. He talked to the media Beast Mode style:

Rather than just answer questions he decided to ask as of his own. For example, many of the reporters wanted to hear about why he stayed on the sideline during halftime against Kansas City rather than head to the locker room (via MyNorthWest.com):

"I'm interested in y'all take on it," Lynch said as a group of media members gathered around his locker. "What was y'all take on it?"

Well, it's what you think that people are interested in, Lynch was told.

"I know you want to hear what I want to say, but I want to hear what you want to say," he said. "What do you feel about it? About me being on the sideline, not going back in the locker room. What did you feel about it?"

At that point, tight end Cooper Helfet – who sits in the next locker over and is Lynch's roommate – chimed in: "I thought it was a good idea."

Lynch: "Coop thought it was a good idea."

Helfet: "I thought it was a good idea. He needed to get some treatment on his back. Got it done."

It became even more entertaining when he just started making observations:

Question: Marshawn, did you think it was fair you were fined $50,000?

Lynch: "My cleats, look they got Nike right here on the side of it."

Question: Marshawn, didn't it mean anything to you to set the franchise rushing record a couple of weeks ago?

"Man, hey look, when they did my cleats, they put this little squiggly line thing on there," Lynch said, pointing to his shoes. "I think it's like an 'M' and an 'L.' Like for Marshawn Lynch. It's pretty nice. Pretty nice."

If this is what he is going to start doing in lieu of getting fined than once again the fans are the winners.
