I think you're talking to a straw man here, Dave. No one said that - they said that it's written into his contract, so just do it. He could have spoken for his 5 minute requirement while the "media whores" as you call them, did the full 30 or so. He could have kept it short. He could have fulfilled his contract with no pain. Instead, Marshawn became the media whore - HE is the one who made himself into a martyr. The media is loving it - they have a story. Only the NFL is pissed, and for them it's just a matter of being able to give themselves a crotch grab...kind of ironic, actually.
