Marshawn Lynch still not talking to cops

That pit in the stomach of every Bills fan on the planet right now? You can blame it 100% on Marshawn Lynch:

Police investigators are growing impatient with running back Marshawn Lynch and his failure to meet with them more than three days after his vehicle was involved in a hit-and-run accident.

Buffalo, N.Y., Police Department spokesman Mike DeGeorge suggested Tuesday that Lynch could face an obstruction-of-justice charge if he doesn't cooperate. He said Lynch's lawyer finally contacted investigators on Monday but said a meeting has not been set.

I just threw up in my mouth a little, and then a whole lot more all over my desk, keyboard, and hey-what-a-coincidence my Marshawn Lynch jersey. Refusing to speak to the cops can be translated roughly from Asshat to English as: "Yep, I did it."

I was expecting big things from Lynch this season. The kid has scary talent and is the biggest weapon on an offense that's ready to take the next step.

Now he's an unknown. And it ain't looking good.

(An unrelated aside: If you're looking to rob a professional athlete's house, do not under any circumstances choose Noah Herron's house. Try robbing a kicker, perhaps.)

Ahhhh...we missed it! We realized after you hung up that we didn't touch on this.

Yeah, that's on me, I kept reminding myself to bring it up but ultimately forgot. :)

I think that he'll pay his way out of it. She wasn't hurt that bad and it seems to be his only off-field screw-up.

Makes Omon look like a good handcuff for dynasty, though.
