Marshawn Lynch: Let's make a deal
Lynch has agreed to plead guilty and is likely getting off the hook with nothing more than a violation in the same league as a speeding ticket. Amazing. As a Bills fan, now that my fear of losing our best player has subsided, I'm left with some disgust for a rich NFL star who would hit a woman with his car, leave her lying on the road, and hide from the consequences for over a week. I hope she sues him for everything he owns, and wins.
Here's a prediction: Buffalo isn't the kind of town where this sort of thing will be forgotten quickly. It's going to take years of seriously big-time contribution to the team and the city, both on and off the field, for Lynch to regain the fans' trust. After the whole McGahee thing, I think it's fair to say that we're more than a little wary of being burned by a would-be hero again.
