I confess. With 5 minutes left in the championship game, Russell Wilson's third interception and Seattle two touchdowns behind, I turned the channel assuming Green Bay won. Upon turning back to the game, I was shocked to see Seattle ahead by one point. Seattle ultimately won the game in overtime and is going to the Superbowl. During his post game interview, Wilson said despite 3 interceptions and the score, they simply kept fighting.
Watching the game, I watched Seattle blow numerous opportunities and make mistakes leading to turning the ball over to their opponent five times. Wilson admitted that he did not play his best game. Still, he kept encouraging his teammates to keep fighting and believing that they would win the game.
Please note that Wilson did not waste energy verbally beating up receivers for dropping balls, nor did the linemen stop blocking for their quarterback Wilson after he threw three interceptions. They stuck together laser focused on defeating their nemesis the Green Bay Packers rather than each other.
Brother and sister patriots, I hate it that we are so quick to kick a courageous patriot to the curb who fumbles the ball during an interview or is targeted by the dems and MSM for standing up for conservatism.
Shame on you folks who ran to the tall grass away from Sen Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin claiming they are simply too toxic. These two patriots are among a hand full displaying the character and guts to fight for us at their peril. Is this how you treat your friends? And then, you whine about Obama acting like our king with no one out there attempting to stop him. Well, you can not have it both ways. Whoever takes on Obama is going to be trashed by the dems and MSM.
Have you noticed the pattern? Anyone on our side who strongly pushes back against the left or does not let the racist stupid inmates run the asylum, we are told are toxic and must be kicked to the curb; less we suffer sure defeat. We have seen it happen with Cruz, Palin and others.
The latest is district attorney Daniel Donovan selected by the GOP to run for the congressional seat in NY vacated by Grimm. For crying out loud, what did Donovan do that was so horrible. He stood up for the law and did not unfairly indict in the Garner case.
It is time that we view the selection of Donovan as our candidate as an opportunity to push back against the dem's lies; make them accountable for rhetoric leading to the assassination of two police officers and painting a target on the backs of all police. It is one thing being on the defensive for doing the wrong things. It is cowardice and morally wrong to allow ourselves to be put on the defensive for standing up for what is right. http://bit.ly/1CcqfXp
During the post game interview after Seattle's extraordinary come from behind victory, I loved Wilson tearfully giving thanks to God. It was also very cool that the TV camera gave the international audience a glimpse of the Seattle team holding hands while kneeling in a prayer of thanks.
Russell Wilson encouraged his teammates to ignore their failures, shortcomings and the odds appearing against them and keep fighting which led to them emerging victorious. This is what I have been relentlessly preaching to the tea party. Evil (Democrats and the MSM) has a way of appearing all powerful. If we keep fighting with God on our side, we win!

Russell Wilson and the Seahawks are wonderful role models.It is about time sports figures did this. God bless them (and Tim Teboe) Go kick some fannys, guys.
Russell Wilson and the Seahawks are awesome: I have lived in Washington state nearly all my life and and enjoy them much. I hope Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman will see the errors of their ways. NOW: go HAWKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Brelan-Fayette :Knighten I can appreciate what you are saying. People the world over are sick of the "global elite" that try to control everything. And something is being done with regards to their financial system and the Federal Reserve. It is called BRICS. That stands for Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. It was BRIC before SA joined in 2010. Start to research all you can on this because it is happening and I am not sure how it will affect people financially. Reportedly now has over 180 countries joining it and intends to replace the US Petrodollar as the reserve currency. And where money is concerned there will be other areas affected.
Great post, Marcus! I agree completely.
EVERYONE HERE CONTINUES TO OVERLOOK THE FACT THAT GOVERNMENT CONTROL, IS NOT IN OUR ELECTED LEADERS HANDS. IT IS IN THE WORLD MAFIA'S HANDS. THE SAME TYRANTS, WHO OWN THE FEDERAL RESERVE. AS LONG AS THEY CONTINUE CONTROL OF OUR MONEY PRINTING, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BE A FREE PEOPLE. BECAUSE, SOMEWHERE SOMEONE CAN BE BOUGHT, OR ASSASSINATED. NO ONE HAS THE FORTITUDE TO STAND UP AGAINST MURDERERS, AND ASSASSINS. LINCOLN, AND KENNEDY TRIED IT,...............NEED I SAY MORE?.........................................NO, I,AM NOT SAYING QUIT. I AM SAYING THAT THE WORLD MAFIA, MUST BE KILLED OFF. BY PATRIOTS, IN MASS, WILLING TO DIE FOR FREEDOM........................THERE CAN ONLY BE "let's pretend ", LIBERTY, AS LONG AS THEY REMAIN IN CONTROL. THE ONLY OTHER POSSIBLE WAY TO STOP THEM, IS TO CEASE TO USE THEIR CONTROL CURRENCY, AND REPLACE IT WITH SOMETHING SIMILAR TO BITCOIN.
There's no such thing as failure, there really isn't, just lack of follow-through...Semper Fi Nam 66-67
"Thanks to God!" What a code and badge of honor. Why do our politicians (Obama, Hillary, Reid, Pelosi, Holder, Sharpton, Jarret, etc.) not carry a badge of "Thanks to God?" Answers: They are either Muslim or atheists. Ever seen any of them leaving a church?
The Founders of our Republic wrote that "our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people" (John Adams) and that "religion is the only solid base of morals and ...morals are the only possible support of free governments" (Gouverneur Morris).
Atheists will try to destroy our Republic and they are doing it well. It is up to the religious right to elect a Christian and to demand again the religious morality that was once America.
Tea Party Patriots, fight liberal atheistic America until your dying day! And then, fight it in your obituary. That is the last free press you will ever get!
Hi Ed, don't know. While I appreciate a team maintaining it's focus and winning a game I haven't forgotten the hypocrisy of some players. Not trying to show up Mr. Marcus; maybe he didn't know but I was fortunate to see that article last week and saw how disgusted everyone on that thread was at Wilson and Richard Sherman. Blacks promoting Obama's agenda. Wonder how Wilson would like to be on Obamacare, or maybe his mom and dad? I doubt he would like that very much.
Mark, wonder why marcus did not reveal the Wilson conflicting allegiance ??
