Bills Fan since '64 Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Rex got fined $100K for talking after a game. Marshawn Lynch is said to be subject to a six figure fine for not talking to the media after the last game. How does this work??
CodeMonkey Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) It is really not difficult if, like papazoid said, you simply follow the rules. You cannot talk bad about refs, which I personally think is a cowards rule by the NFL. And players/coaches are required to talk to the press at defined times. So simple even a beastmode should be able to figure it out. Edited November 18, 2014 by CodeMonkey
PortlandiaEast Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) As much as I hate the guy, Belichzeck does it best. He give the most bland interviews and say pretty much nothing every week. I hate hate hate him for being our nemisis, but he passively gives the finger to the nfl media, which I love. Edited November 18, 2014 by PortlandiaEast
YoloinOhio Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Beastmode. Good player. Beats to a very different drum.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Doesn't Mario Williams have some clause in his contract that says that he doesn't have to talk to the media?

Marshawn Lynch is said to be subject to a six figure fine for not talking to the media after the last game. How does this work?? its not that cut and dry and simply talking and not talking...Rex made comments he knows he is not supposed to make
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 As much as I hate they guy, Bellicheat does it best. He give the most bland interviews and say pretty much nothing every week. I hate hate hate him for being our nemisis, but he passively gives the finger to the nfl media. We're on to Cincinnati. As much as I hate him, I loved that press conference. What would have been great, is that if even after the huge win of Cincy, he would have just answered every question "We're on to Buffalo." Marrone tries this approach, but it just doesn't work.
YoloinOhio Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 its not that cut and dry and simply talking and not talking...Rex made comments he knows he is not supposed to make And it was his 3rd offense.
KD in CA Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Rex got fined $100K for talking after a game. Marshawn Lynch is said to be subject to a six figure fine for not talking to the media after the last game. How does this work?? Actually I think Rex got fined for getting caught on camera saying "!@#$ you" to someone (possibly a ref). We're on to Cincinnati. As much as I hate him, I loved that press conference. Same here.
peterpan Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 "We'll I don't want to be fined 100 grand for talking about how bad the refs were today so please don't ask me about the officiating"
Bills Fan since '64 Posted November 18, 2014 Author Posted November 18, 2014 its not that cut and dry and simply talking and not talking...Rex made comments he knows he is not supposed to make I think my subtle sense of irony got lost in translation
Roger Goodell Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 All NFL personnel are expected to comply with league policies regarding interactions with the media.
NoSaint Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Actually I think Rex got fined for getting caught on camera saying "!@#$ you" to someone (possibly a ref). yup - a ref in game, it sounds like Doesn't Mario Williams have some clause in his contract that says that he doesn't have to talk to the media? maybe for things above and beyond the nfl rules, but the nfl does mandate participation as part of the employment.
Utah John Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 A head coach giving bland non-answers to the media is just showing the same kind of discipline he expects from his players not jumping offsides.
