I just heard this on local Seattle news. One of the reasons he's my favorite Quarterback in the NFL.

Re: Russel Wilson upgrades soldier to first class
Great on his part. One minor note, upgrade to 1st class on Alaska Airlines is $50.00

Re: Russel Wilson upgrades soldier to first class
For Wilson it probably didn't cost a dime. Since he saw it while he was on the plane it means the seat was unsold and no one had requested an upgrade. So he probably batted his eyes, made a suggestion, panties got wet and viola.Silverback wrote:Great on his part. One minor note, upgrade to 1st class on Alaska Airlines is $50.00
I fly "non-revenue" all the time. If there's a seat in 1st class I get bumped.

Russell Wilson seems like an all around quality guy. To bad he plays for that shitty team.rangertough wrote:For Wilson it probably didn't cost a dime.

If you're trying to bust my balls (out of a courtesy to you so you waste any more of your time). I hate football...all of it.Silverback wrote:Russell Wilson seems like an all around quality guy.

Re: Russel Wilson upgrades soldier to first class
They made two Super Bowls in a role not to mention the number one defense in the NFL. I'll put my money on Wilson and the Seahawks.

Being from PDX, I hate all Washington teams. It started with Xavier McDaniel.

Re: Russel Wilson upgrades soldier to first class
The only sport I've ever really followed regularly was rodeo until about 3-4 years ago. A buddy of mine showed me some highlights of Kam Chancellor and I was hooked. I played linebacker in high school and always liked Dick Butkus because of how he hit people, I see a lot of Dick Butkus in Kam Chancellor. Like them or not their defense is incredible.
