Here's to Seahawks play calling


Let me wax a moment. Russell is is 100 times more special than he appears.

When his dad worked for me he was a former Dartmouth player, cut by the Chargers. He was hopelessly diabetic. Once when Russell was 13 his dad had a seizure driving Russell to an AAU baseball game . Russell took control of the car and miraculously stopped it.

His dad died his junior year at NCState. I would visit him at the hospital. One thing after another amputations etc. Because of his size and the need for a family paycheck, he tried baseball but it wasn't to be. Luckily he found the right spot at Seattle.

He won a Super Bowl playing for peanuts. He should have won a second. But at least now financially he will get what he has long deserved, what a wonderful kid

What a great (and sad) story. As a lifelong 49ers fan, I've come to despise the Seahawks over the last few years. Russell Wilson is probably the only person in that franchise I respect and like. Now you've comfirmed my feelings on this kid. You're right, he deserves more than what he has received so far. He also has great character which is hard to find these days. I like how he took responsibility for the interception while his OC blames the receiver for not "being strong on the ball". Failure brings out a person's real colors (and character).
