Because of the money i feel sorry for him. I’ve never been impressed by that kind of money and would never want it for myself.
I used to really like him until a few years ago (even before he nicknamed himself Mr. Unlimited). We do have a culture of building up athletes and musicians and celebrities only to knock them down later. He might be a bit of a narcissist and phony, but he’s not a mean guy, so i can’t help but i still feel a bit of empathy for how it must be for him to go from hero to meme fodder on social media and booed where he played for so long.
At the same time i think him not proving his worth sort of vindicates Pete Carroll, who i still really like a lot.
Gotta say, though Russell is not boring me with this game . He rarely did when he played. I love watching close games more than i would love my team blowing away the other.
