Coming into Super Bowl Media Day, Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch was told to be at the festivities so he wouldn’t be fined. He took the stance literally as he made his way to his podium and for four minutes (the minimum required time), Lynch gave the same answer to every question – “I’m just here so I won’t get fined”.
A few of Lynch’s good buddies, like Deion Sanders, did what they could to break Lynch from his mold, yet the running back refused to budge (though occasionally seemed to have a difficult time giving the same answer).
Literally, every single time Marshawn Lynch was asked a question, it was the same answer. Over. And over. And over.
I'm here so I won't get fined. -Marshawn Lynch (after every question he is asked) https://t.co/ACf7zaxRUC

Most appeared to get a kick out of Marshawn Lynch’s trolling of the NFL, though after he left the podium some fans/media members did decide to boo the Seahawks running back.
A far cry from his Skittles press conference on Monday where the Pro Bowl talent talked about anything and everything, including cats.
If only Lynch would have unleashed a middle finger to the NFL during his Super Bowl media day presser. Though Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots may have already done so for him.
