It's pretty amazing how much this rustles journalists week in and week out.

Sports journalists are so bad. Try asking questions better than "can you describe x" and "tell us about x"

By Homeland standards, pretty much nothing happened in the Season 4 finale that aired on Sunday night. But “Long Time Coming” is one of the best episodes of the last two seasons of the series, precisely because it’s by far the quietest.

Almost amazing as the fact that people actually think it's funny.

It is only funny because it works so well.

That homeland episode was the season finale? WTF. That episode made the sopranos finale look like the red wedding.

Why should he do their job for them and provide a bunch of good quotes to their idiotic questions?

Shocker that lynch is a childish clown when his coach is exactly that when he's not doubling as a cheating scumbag.

It's not about not answering questions but being a total dick to others because they're not as important. Don't know about otherothers but I usually think people who look down others because of their jobs are *******s.

On the other hand, not sure why anyone still wastes their time with him. Even of he did his best, you wouldn't get more than a few grunt sounds.

no, that's definitely not what it's about.

while he's "making their job harder" by not answering their stupid questions, by not answering their stupid questions he's making their job easier, cause now they can pretend to be outraged about how they know it'll play out. think the two NFL interviews i've seen the most this season are his "yeah" one, and the one from last night. i'm sure the Ru$tler has answered roughly 538904689135 stupid questions in between, i have not seen those.

player interviews are not the slightest bit interesting 99.99999999% of the time. if you need a quote to complete your crappy game recap story, go ask one of the other 52 players who will surely give it to you. if you need a story about how mad you are about spoiled, overpaid, jerk athletes, go hang around Lynch for 2 minutes then i guess.

I'm just saying that lynch is an arrogant wanker, and everyone is celebrating him for it

Good post^

It's his contract to speak to the media, not be a petulant child.

This is really the only thing that matters to me in this whole thing. He gets paid ungodly sums because he plays well, but not only to play. The job is more than carrying a football.

So, can I get a list of people who are made worse off by non-answers to dumb questions, and in what ways?

I bet Fly has some thoughts on the matter

He doesn't answer the good questions, either. Who cares if they are dumb? EVERYONE ELSE does. He's not special. In fact if he does think he's special he should be answering more than most since he's the star RB.
