A Rookie With An Edge

Russell WilsonYes it's early. The NFL season is only two weeks old and already there have been surprising upsets and unexpected performances. There are ten starting quarterbacks who have one year or less of NFL experience - the most since 1950. It's much too early to predict how each will turn out or how their respective teams will fare. But we can enjoy the moment.

In Seattle, there's a new starting quarterback too - just as everyone expected. Last years starter, Tavaris Jackson, is now in Buffalo and Matt Flynn, who the Seahawks signed in the off-season, is reportedly one of the league's most highly paid backups. 

  
What wasn't expected was for Russell Wilson to win the job. But win it he did. And regardless of how he does on the field (he's currently 1-1 as a starter) he's a young man who is easy to admire. 

Russell Wilson is a courageous decision maker when his career is on the line. He talks about the three "P's" that his father encouraged him to use as compass points for the way he lives his life: perspective, perseverance, and purpose. And he's committed to what hasn't been done before; to being different; and to doing everything he can to be uncommon.  

Here's a guy who trusts in who he is and has a true passion for the sport and career that he loves. I have a hunch he's going to be be special. He's a real life example of someone who sees the edge.

    I'm so glad I found dr.Larry, My wife left me a month ago after 14 years of being together. I’ve spent the last month agonizing, crying, feeling guilty and feeling the lowest ever. i did so much to get her back but nothing worked out not until i saw a comment online when someone was testifying of how Dr Larry helped him to restored back his wife and that was how i contacted him through his email and after writing my issue out he assured me that he will help me to get back with my wife in 24hours after casting the love spell, and after he did the spell my wife came back home and pleaded that she is very sorry for the pain she caused me and the kids. I am back with my wife and we are both happy and living together again. I know there are many people out there that want to get their love back.

    My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emut[email protected] or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542

    He is also able to cast spell like 1: Lottery 2: Conceive 3: Breakup 4: Divorce 5: Cure for all kinds of diseases and viruses.
