    Re: Lynch to holdout of camp

    Doesn't he still have a pending DUI hearing?
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    I'm not sure how he thinks this will end, I don't see a great ending for him because of his pending DUI.

    He signed a new 4 year 30 Mil contract just 2 years ago. WTF ?

    Who's advising him ? Tommy Chong ?

    Maybe it's Eugene Parker, that's his kind of move.

    I was just looking at his contract, he's due a half a million dollar bonus per game this year and a $2 million per game bonus next year. How unfair, I can see why he's not happy.

    Adam Schefter@AdamSchefter · 40m This does not include daily $30,000 fine Seattle can impose. As of today, Marshawn Lynch's fine total now stands at $455,000 - and growing.

    Re: Lynch to holdout of camp

    He's one of the best backs in the league, I can understand why he'd want more than $5 mil a year. The Seahawks would be wise to give it to him.

    Screw that,

    he just signed a 4 year contract 2 years ago.
    I'm sure that included a nice signing bonus.(don't care enough to look up how much)

    I hope Seattle plays hardball and wins in this case.

    Seattle gave Lynch an extra $1M salary (formerly was based on incentives and moved $500K from 2015 to 2014. That raised his 2014 compensation from $5M to $6.5M. They also agreed to forgive the fines in incurred in his holdout. He is back with the team now.
