Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks seems unhappy. Despite the Seahawks being a perennial playoff team, Wilson seems to be annoyed that he doesn’t have more say in the organization. Now, the National Football League is not like the NBA. It just isn’t. Owners and front office people make moves without the sign off of their star player all the time. When asked if Wilson is on the trading block by Dan Patrick yesterday, he replied ‘That’s a Seahawks question.’ And later in the day, Wilson had become frustrated with getting hit so much. Aaron Rodgers is out when it comes to trade rumors and Russell Wilson is in.

This is great for a variety of reasons. One, the Seahawks are a Packer rival, so, to see them have issues like this makes me smile from ear to ear. The other reason is this likely removes all the noise about Rodgers getting traded from the ESPN’s and FOX’s of the world. The content machines will now have their eyes set on Wilson. The photoshops will begin and likely not stop until Wilson or the Seahawks say something. It is bullshit in my opinion for Wilson to throw his teammates under the bus like that though. Rodgers didn’t do anything similar when he was upset about the playoff loss.

We’ll see if Russ is cooking somewhere else next season.
