It’s an attitude that the NFL doesn’t really appreciate though, as his refussal to talk to the media has angered the league and his swagger is deemed off putting by official in New York. That’s why it’s not really that big of a surprise that Lynch’s crotch grab as he flew into the end zone after ‘Beast Mode: Part II’ on Sunday night wasn’t something the NFL thought was cute.
As a result, Lynch was fined $11,050 for his crotch grab while diving into the end zone on Sunday night against the Arizona Cardinals.

It’s not that hard for the NFL to fine Marshawn Lynch, as his routine dismissal of the NFL media has drawn a slew of fines over the years. This crotch grab was pretty obvious but it so perfectly capture the essence of how few f-cks Marshawn Lynch has to give. You can fine him, yell at him for having social anxiety and you can trash him for the way he plays but there’s no busting down the man behind the mask who clearly could care less what your opinion of him is.
And that’s why so many people love Marshawn Lynch.
