Seattle Seahawks star running back Marshawn Lynch is turning his noted aversion to the media into a gainful venture for himself.
Lynch coined the phrase "I'm just here so I won't get fined" during media week for Super Bowl XLVIII, as he was threatened to face a $100,000 fine if he didn't speak to the press before the championship game.

After Seattle made a second consecutive Super Bowl appearance, Lynch reintroduced the phrase to the media and it became his notable quotation of this year's event.
On Lynch's Beast Mode website, the running back is selling T-shirts for $34 with his visage and popular catchphrase on the garment.
Beast Mode, forever!
