Default Declaring my allegiance

Once again my friends, the road to the Super Bowl comes to my town.

I know it doesn't matter sh!te to most of the world, but it's all on the line here.

One game to reach the Championship

One game after.

Go 'Hawks

signed,

12th Man

It's a good thing my better half isn't on this forum she might talk some smack. As a native of WI, she is a wearer of the cheese.
I on the other hand am a horseshoe head and greatly hope they are victorious at Gillette stadium this Sunday.

I'm just looking forward to the in depth, lively, advanced-stat driven, intospective interview from ever-eloquent Marshawn Lynch.

He just talks too much. You can't get him to shut up. :-)
Seriously, I do wish they would just leave the guy alone. You can't be taken out of context if don't open your mouth.

What he needs to do, is get in some next level shhhh....stuff. He needs to find a long sonnet, and deliver lines from that as answers. None of the reporters would have a clue until someone on the interwebs puts it all together.

It'd be hilarious. (Can you tell I'm not fond of sports reporting?)

Im already getting shakes from cfb ending (despite being ecstatic that I'll never listen to that "centuries" song again), so I'll be watching and enjoying the last game for a while.

Or maybe he should answer everything in pig Latin.

You know you have a football problem when you are counting down the remaing games you have left before the "football fast" starts.

In Marshawn's defense, the guy goes out of his way to do charity functions and school appearances.

Personally, the whole messing with the media thing is growing old

I've only read great things about him. I just don't see why he has to talk to the media if he doesn't want to.
What I thought was really messed up was fining him $100K for not talking. He's a football player, not a spokesperson for the team. Yet when Suh performed a major cheap shot on an already injured Rogers he only got fined $70k.

Yup, IMO, its on the reporters at this point. You know he doesn't want to get asked the same boring questions over and over, yet they keep doing it to annoy him.

Also, IMO, theyre the ones who look dumb because of it.
