Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch returned to the podium Thursday with a different approach than that of his other Super Bowl week appearances thus far.

Lynch again refused to take questions, but this time he began the press conference by lecturing the media for continuing to show up and expecting answers from him, according to ProFootballTalk.

All week I done told you all what’s up. And for some reason you all come back and do what you did. I don't know what image you all are trying to portray me, but it don’t matter what you all think, what you all say about me. Because when I go home at night, the people I look in the face, my family, that I love, that’s all that matters to me. ... You all shove cameras and microphones down my throat. I ain’t got nothing for you all. ... You all will sit here doing the same thing. I’m here preparing for a game.

Lynch proceeded to make a few shout outs before staring at the crowd for the remainder of his required availability, before the timer set on his phone went off and he then left the room.

Thursday, of course, is the last day players are expected to be available to the media, so Lynch won't be required to speak again until after Sunday's game.
