Lynch new deal with Seahawks

[12intheBox]

@JasonLaCanfora: Marshawn Lynch has a new deal in place with the Seahawks according to league sources.


I hope they paid thru the nose.

@JasonLaCanfora: Would expect formalization of Lynch deal in coming days. Will include $12M in 1st year, $9M in 2nd year w/SEA aware he may retire after '15

 

[DR RAM]

Good. We'll light his ass up next year.

@DHendrickson41: Contrary to reports there is no marshawn lynch deal.


WTF Twitter

 

[12intheBox]

@JasonLaCanfora: Doug Hendrickson, agent for Marshawn Lynch, says "there is no deal done." I continue to hear SEA has offer on table that will result in deal


So there you have it - who you gonna believe, ROD, Laconfora or ML's agent?

La Canfora is an idiot. I say it time and time again. He's wrong EVERY time.

 

[jsimcox]

I love that he's trying to stand by his tweet even though the agent could not have been any more clear that he is wrong.

Notice, he doesn't say who he is hearing it from. Maybe its the invisible friend?

 

[MTRamsFan]

Damn... you have to love social media. How many times will LaCanfora get bitch slapped before he realizes he should just stop! ROFLMAO!

Despite a report that the Seahawks and running back Marshawn Lynch have agreed to a deal, they haven’t.

Agent Doug Hendrickson has said on Twitter, and he has separately told PFT, that no agreement is in place. Hendrickson acknowledge that the two sides are negotiating.

“There is no deal,” Hendrickson said. “We are talking.”

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports initially reported that a deal is in place. After Hendrickson said there isn’t, La Canfora has backpedaled faster than Darrell Green, claiming that he continues to hear that the Seahawks have an offer on the table that “will result in a deal.”

He’s wrong. It may result in a deal, but there’s no guarantee that it will. That’s because Lynch is unpredictable, and there’s always a chance he’ll decide not to sign the contract. Especially now that word has gotten out that a deal is done when a deal isn’t done.

Lynch could try to get even more than whatever may be on the table, or Lynch may retire. If he does, the Seahawks would be able to get $1.5 million back from Lynch in signing bonus money paid to him in 2012.

If Marshawn goes, so does Seattles success. We seem to be the only team who can stop him. So it doesn't bother me either way.

I hope they sign him. Thats a lot of $$ for a RB - even a good one.

 

[DR RAM]

We will light his ass up, even if he's not playing next year.

Screw that Skittle eatin POS

I like Lynch but hope he retires. Seahawks will suck without him.

You guys should watch him play Mortal Combat with Gronk and Conan. Hilarious...

I think we need to make a ROD rule that anything La Confora reports can't be reported as news. This is getting ridiculous with this guy. Every time I see his name as the source I immediately doubt it. That's not a message board exaggeration. That's the God's honest truth. The guy is a horrible reporter.

Lynch is a douche. Awwwwww, I get payed millions, but I wont give an interview without being an asshole, im so cool and hardcore. I dont play by the rules. No one can tell me what to do.

With his mentality he would be fired and torn apart repeatably in the real world that we all live in.

Fuck him and the horse he easily rode in on with his millions for being a douche. Hope he goes broke and files for bankruptcy.
Fuck him.

freak him and the horse he easily rode in on with his millions for being a douche. Hope he goes broke and files for bankruptcy.
freak him.

Couldn't agree more...Too many (in my opinion) play this guy up as a folk hero...Joe Cool 'cause he flaunts his unwillingness to follow the rules of his contract...That makes him an asshole, not a cool hero to the downtrodden, over-worked everyman...He's hardly that. He makes millions and chooses to laugh at the rules... Does anybody really think he won't be playing next year ??? I don't...I suppose I can only hope....Slaughter 2 birds with one stone...Wouldn't have to hear anything more about him and it would be a huge blow to the Albatross offense...I'm probably way too subtle, I just don't care for the dick head...

I also hope they sign him (To a HUGE deal!)! And, I hope they sign Wilson to another HUGE deal! I don't see how the Seahawks will be able to keep their team together or sign many key free agents with those two (And, a few others) huge contracts for much longer!
