Marshawn Lynch Pranks Interviewers at NFL Superbowl XLIX Pressday!!!

 The NFL is left in a wake of controversy after Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch pokes fun at news reporters. During Tuesday's Super Bowl XLIX press conference, Lynch repeated the same answer to every question asked by news reporters. 

He stated "I'm just here so I won't get fined."  

Marshall Lynch would have been fined $500,000 dollars if he failed to make an appearance at the media day. The NFL has a pending fine against Lynch because he did not answer enough questions. According to ESPN.com

I believe that the NFL is wrong for fining players that do not want to have media exposure. I think that team franchise's need to have players available for the media. I think that franchise's should either rotate their player's every week or choose players that have a high importance in leadership and play making. ex. Coaches, Quarterbacks, ect. However, I do not think that The NFL should dictate of how players react to questions asked by the media.
