Lynch fined $20K for NFC title game gesture

[Betallsports]

The NFL has fined Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch $20,000 for the obscene gesture he made after scoring a touchdown in Sunday's NFC Championship Game, according to an NFL official.


<cite>Matt Kartozian/USA TODAY Sports</cite>Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is scheduled to speak to the media on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during Super Bowl week.




It could be just the start of what may be a costly Super Bowl week for Lynch.


The NFL is considering fining Lynch "significantly more" than the $50,000 it has fined him in each of the past two seasons for not speaking to the media, something Lynch again declined to do postgame Sunday, an NFL official said.


This is another issue that threatens to hang over Super Bowl week, with Lynch being required to speak to the media Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.


An NFL official said there would be increasing fines for each session Lynch misses, with each fine being more than the two $50,000 fines already imposed and the upcoming fine that is expected soon.


As of now, the NFL and the Seahawks are in discussions about the best way to handle Lynch.

U know I starting doing searches of Lynch and interviews cause I thought he had a phobia. Take a look at this clip. This is the most open I've ever heard him speak. And this clip was from this year.

Suspend Lynch for not wearing the correct fucking shoes but give Tom Brady a pass for tampering with the game balls?

Gimmie a break man.

Prop is for "Media Day" prior to the game. Post game, whatever he does to a reporter, would not cash it.

He hates the US Media because he feels he was misquoted about something in Buffalo years ago. I suspect he'll show up on media day, but he'll do his hilarious "thanks for asking" or "yeah" type act to avoid fines.
