Starting around 9:55 or so, it's worth a quick listen.

Would love to have Wilson. It's never gonna happen though. He's always seemed like a classy guy and a good teammate.

I love how the national narrative suddenly flipped from veteran QB's "not having enough young weapons" (Brady in NE, Rodgers) to QB's "not having enough OL protection" (Wilson).

"one of my friends said" I am sure he is an authority of the subject matter.

14 isn’t elementary school and most people should know not to knock somebodies teeth out even if they are in elementary school. I’m not saying it’s a huge deal, just that I’m not a fan.

Actually he IS an authority on the subject matter. His name is Tim Peeler. We worked on the same newspaper, The Technician, in the late 70's-early 80's. He was a sports writer with the Salisbury Post, The Greenville News, the Durham Herald-Sun, and the Triangle sports bureau at Greensboro News & Record. He also worked for the NC State Athletic Department. He shared this story about Wilson three days ago with a group of current and former NCSU media people of which I am a member. He was the editor-in-chief and slightly earlier I was photo editor of The Technician.

He said that this was his first encounter of many with the NCSU freshman, Russell Wilson, and was told about the food poisoning by Wilson himself. Tim added that he was on the team bus for the excursion. This is fairly common. I've been on buses with NCSU teams on several occasions.

So who is actually the

I think him demanding a trade is the only way it would happen, and I don't think he will do that. Not publicly anyway.
