blacklabel Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) I'd be surprised if he comes back. I'm sure he was hoping Seattle was going to make a run to the Super Bowl where he would've only had to play in three or four games to get there. Who knows if he wants to go through another full season. Edited January 13, 2020 by blacklabel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I’ve seen videos of him playing video games with Gronk and Conan. He was hysterical, and clearly no dummy. I’ve seen videos of him going to Scotland and talking about football. He can be charming and funny when he wants to be. He’s no longer able to move the pile. He was called out of retirement in an emergency. I seriously doubt he would go through the grind of a season again at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do The Reich Thing Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Marshawn IS an extremely smart and intelligent man. Anyone disagreeing based off him speaking like he's from a bad area in Oakland is being ignorant. Marshawn was never dealt the best hand, but he has done far more than people who we're initially dealt better hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can make out what chicken means and are ok with cursing, it's actually good advise. He's actually a smart dude. When I left Buffalo for the south, I can't tell you how quick I overcame the idea of someone with a southern slang/accent had to be dumb. Same applies to the way Lynch talks. Also, some players hearing come out this way might relate better to who it's coming from and heed the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not uncommon for football players to graduate in three years. A. He probably was early enrollment B. He majored in Social Welfare and C. I would bet good money he didnt do a whole lot of studying by himself during those years. I would also venture to say that a guy who was a consensus first round draft pick, and was a shoe in to make millions of dollars had a fair amount of help from the university in graduating given the potential for large donations. I am sorry but if you want to convince me that a guy who swears at children, hits a woman with his car, brings his own alcohol to nightclubs, and hides in closets to avoid the police is a member of mensa you arent going to get far. Additionally, was and continues to be one of the most hyped and overrated players at his positions because he acts like a clown and eats skittles.

I am sorry but just because he coaches football and gives from his abundance of money doesnt make him a good guy, when he does it and provides a bad example for the kids.

He was also using other colorful language beyond what you posted here, but its all good because he's a swell guy.
