Wilson spouting off on humanity of Antonio Brown is insulting and, yes, even DangerRuss
Further illustrating how the NFL has outlined our utter failure, if not caused it, was professional and self-appointed morality-sensor Russell Wilson clamoring for the Seahawks to sign Antonio Brown.

How much should Cubs fans care about their team's horrendous owners?
Todd Ricketts is a petulant child, and he’s mad because his awful brother, Tom, gets all the attention as chairman of the Chicago Cubs. Todd and his sister, Laura, also run the franchise, but Todd doesn’t care about Laura. He just wants you to know that he’s one of the people who owns the team....
