WeLandedOnTheMoon! posted:I really don't care about what Lynch does or doesn't say, but I find his total contempt of the media baffling. Was his mother Lady Diana or something? The dude is a gimmicky guy. From the grills, to the roped off Lambo, to the Skittles, to the flying crotch grab, Marshawn wants attention. So why does he get all uppity when reporters want to talk to him? Was he burned by a reporter in the past? For some reason this post popped in my head today and I gotta say, its an expert take. Really well done.

Oh cool, this thread exists. I'm leaving today to cover the super bowl for the week. Was thinking about making a "superbowl week through the eyes of a sad alcoholic tv producer," thread but wanted to gauge interest. edit: interest, do any of you have.

It doesn't happen as much in SAS, but there have been plenty of instances where goons go internet detective and ruin a thread like that just to show how smart they are. I'd be interested in reading that thread, but definitely cover your tracks if you do.

In case you haven't read any dumb old white guy opinions recently, here's Jerry Green (one of four writers to cover every Super Bowl) talking about how Joe Namath was fun but Marshawn Lynch grabbing his balls is just too much. Era of innocence for Super Bowl, NFL long gone

Dear god, it is worse than I thought.quote:Both Super Bowl coaches – Bill Belichick of the Patriots and Pete Carroll of the Seahawks – are sullied by historical lack of innocence. By character deficiencies. quote:Innocent? Not quite innocent, but really nothing damaging, nothing threatening our democracy.  How is Carroll's recruiting violation any different from those wonderful old-timey shenanigans? (Say what you will about him bailing on USC, but the violations themselves don't seem too much more harmful than what Green described. )Also he complains about how innocence has been lost recently and points to Lynch's nut grab. Part of the beauty of innocence is that someone who has it doesn't see anything wrong with what Lynch did, only the twisted old misers like Green really give a poo poo if a dude touches himself. His terror of Marshawn's gesture reveals his own lack of innocence. Marshawn isn't telling Green to suck his dick, it's Green's own inference.

Media day was an unimaginable clusterfuck that made me glad I don't cover sports often. Crews were straight banging in the scrums, gronk's mult-box was dead, and I almost went off on a photog who shoved my correspondent into a wall. Only 6 more days...

Can/will you share more without risking your job? I'd love to hear what the NFL press are like when they aren't in front of a camera/keyboard, as well as the intricacies behind media day and all the other poo poo.

The Sports Hub morning show guys were bitching about how media day was pretty much a mosh pit because they held it in the basketball arena instead of the football stadium like has been done in previous Super Bowls.

Lynch has two of the top stories on ESPN.com right now. Sports writers should be sending him cases of Skittles in return for all the page views he's getting them.
