This Is What We Missed by Marshawn Lynch Refusing to Talk [VIDEO]

And had Pete Carroll let Marshawn do his job, we might have seen something this awesome on Sunday!

Now, between DeflateGate and before The Worst Football Decision Ever, the controversy and topic o' the day in the NFL was Marshawn Lynch's refusal to speak. I don't have to remind you that he would choose one phrase ("I'm only here so I won't get fined," for instance) and repeat it no matter what the question was.

But that wasn't always the case.

Nope, in fact, Marshawn Lynch was once an excited, pumped up, entertaining post-game interview. Check out this video from high school and tell me this wouldn't have been awesome to see after the Super Bowl on Sunday:

Thanks for depriving the world of another Sizzler Moment, Pete Carroll. Thanks a lot.
