Lynch needs to change his ways

Story tools:

Marshawn, I think you’re a good person. You shook my hand, gave me an autograph, held my grandson so we could photograph you with your No. 23 jersey and you even gave my grandson a personalized autograph on that photo.

My grandson adores you, as do many other young football fans. When we sit to watch the Bills play he cheers for you but in reality he’s cheering for No. 23. When your name comes up in conversation, the phrase I hear most is “Marshawn Lynch is a thug.” I know that’s not really who you are.

So Marshawn, it’s time to man up. You have a God-given gift as an athlete. Please don’t waste it by letting others pull you down with them. Man up and make the right choices. Walk the walk of righteousness and your life will become much happier and fulfiling. Remember, many of us are rooting for you to succeed, but just as many are rooting for you to fail.
