Are you a Seahawks fan who wants to commemorate a second straight NFC title with a framed collage of the team, combined with a game-used football that we assume was used at some point last week? Well thanks to the NFL Shop you're in luck (oh wait, no you're not, it's already out of stock).
That's unfortunate. But had you been in luck you could've grabbed the limited edition item that features shots of (clockwise from top left): Russell Wilson throwing a ball (probably an interception if it was taken last week), Russell Wilson hoisting a trophy, Jermaine Kearse catching a game-winning overtime TD, Richard Sherman picking off a pass in the end zone and, oh look, Marshawn Lynch grabbing his dick as he crosses the goal line. That would be the same dick grab that netted the Seattle running back a $20,000 fine this past week from the league office. On top of that, we found out yesterday that they'll be on the lookout for a similar celebration in the Super Bowl and if Lynch does it again the whole team will be penalized.
The NFL's reasoning behind both the fine and threat? Lynch's apparent go-to move is "obscene."
Now whether or not you think it was "obscene" is up to you and your own moral standards. We won't judge. But regardless of where you stand on the issue, what does it say about the NFL to profit off of Lynch's celebration after taking such a high and mighty stand since said dick grab went down?
