If you want the short answer it's humility. People kind of appreciate it.
Of which neither Brady or Gronkowski have in the least.
You're off your damn rocker if you think Brady and Gronk are anywhere near as arrogant or loud mouthed as Sherman. Maybe on the field (where anything goes and I don't fault anyone for anything they say) they could be comparable, but it's the talk that they do off the field that rubs people the wrong way. I'm indifferent about Lynch's behavior with the media, but it does come off like he makes a big deal out of nothing. Just answer the question and don't make a spectacle of the fact that the media is interviewing you.
Nope Sherman and Lynch are both good dudes who grew up in the streets and had to fight for what they have.
Sherman his educated and has admitted to playing the villian to make a name for himself and the team. His brash approach has made him millions in endorsements and put Seattle in the media spotlight.
The reason why everyone thinks Seattle is a bandwagon is because the media finally took notice of the team. Obviously with more exposure came more articles on the Seahawks. 49er rivalry also brought more attention because the fans were bringing it all against each other which rubbed other fans of other teams the wrong way.
Seahawks always as had a dedicated fanbase, one of the best in the NFL save for the Behring years where he did everything to alienate us to move the team to LA.
But again the reason why our fanbase seemingly blew up was merely the national media finally paying attention to the team in "southern Alaska" which allowed Hawks fans to have bigger platform to be voiced.
Most of that was Sherman, he basically put Seattle on the spot.
Lynch is just a dude who marches to his own beat. Pure and simple. He's just staying true to his self and not trying to be someone hes not. But in a way by not talking hes only helped endorse his own brand which is making him millions of dollars right now.
Lynch imo opinion can do whatever he pleases because honestly the NFL needs more characters that define the game exactly what it is and not the family circus Goodell is trying to create.
Lynch plays the game harder and more violently than anybody in the league. I can understand if he doesnt want to be hounded by group of reporters who really dont give a damn about how his body feels. That coupled with that he probably has some type of social anxiety stemming from whatever happened in Buffalo.
And people like you just eat up all the surface narratives without understanding the layers of the person.
It just seems the fans that have a problem with the Seahawks percieved arrogance are just fickle assholes who think they can use it has leverage in trashtalk or something or a way to deflect their own teams problems by calling attention to our team.
Seahawks are an egnima. You either hate the hell out of us or you love it. There is no inbetween and Im fine with that. Paint us how you will without digging beneath the surface. It just shows more arrogance are your part.
