Marshawn Lynch lasted 6 minutes, 20 seconds at Super Bowl Media Day before escaping the big stage.
Deion “Prime Time” Sanders of NFL Network hunted Beast Mode down, and the interview with the Seattle Seahawks star was priceless. Here’s a portion of it.
“You look good,” Sanders told Lynch, who was wearing sunglasses and had the hood of his Seahawks’ jacket pulled up.
“(Bleep), so do you,” said Lynch, fingering Prime Time’s suit coat.
Sanders told Lynch it looked like he was ready to play.
Lynch: “Yep, that’s what time it is.”
Sanders then asked if Lynch was a little shy.
Lynch: “I’m just about that action boss. … I ain’t never seen no talk win ya nothing. Been like that since I was a little kid. I was raised like that.”
Asked if he was excited about the game, Lynch, wearing sunglasses, said, “Hell, yeah. … yeaaahh!”
Sanders then said some think the Seahawks will be in trouble if Lynch doesn’t get untracked.
Lynch: “They gonna have to stop all of us. I’m a beast, but we got some dogs.”
Sanders: You don’t like podiums do you? What is your thing?
Lynch: “Lay back, kick back, mind my business, stay in my own lane.”
Sanders: He told Lynch that NFL Network and former star back Marshall Faust loved him.
Lynch: “That’s huge. He’s a
great.”
Sanders: “We all love you.”
Lynch then went third-person on us.
“That’s big time. Beast Mode love and appreciate that.”
