Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson will do anything to impress his R&B girlfriend, Ciara. Even turn down a pay raise of $20 million!
The 26-year-old superstar recently turned down a $21 million-a-year contract offer from the Seahawks’ for the 2015/16 season. Wilson is currently paid a measly $1.5 million a year.
Wilson has given the Super Bowl runner-up team until the end of this week to make him a better offer or he will play out the 2015/16 season under his current $1.5 million salary.
No doubt Wilson is holding out because he wants to become the highest paid NFL player in the game.
According to Pro Football Talk, only four other NFL players earn over $20 million a year.
The highest played player is the Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers who takes home $22 million a year.
The Seahawks reportedly aren’t interested in exceeding $22 million a year to keep Wilson (and his R&B girlfriend) happy.
Friday’s comments from former Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren suggests he knows the specifics and realizes that Wilson would be wise to swap out $1.5 million this year for the massive increase he’ll instantly receive. Ultimately, it’ll be Wilson’s call regarding whether to play for $88,000 per week in 2015 or a lot more than that. Source

Good morning ?
Must be nice to turn down 21.5 milliion dollars!
Back at you!!!
Helllurh All!
I highly Doubt he is trying to impress Ciara. He wants to be the highest paid QB. Rogers gets 22-23.
Aint nothing wrong with getting one’s worth.
:sips:
Morning Roses
CaliYoruba… hey hun!! How’s everything. aint been around these parts much lately
If Russ doesn’t get his cash from the Seahawks TRUST another team will happily Pay him.
:yup:
Hey u!!! Didnt see much of u yesterday!!? ?
Gm Roses! I hope they work out, cute couple.
they need to stop and pay that man, a super bowl ring and another super bowl appearance. he deserves it
He did win a Super Bowl and almost did it again, but he is no Aaron Rodgers. But if my hometown teams mediocre ass QB Matt Stafford can get 17 mil a year, get your money Russell!
Good morning!
Good Morn-ting Y’all! ??
On topic:
At the end of the day, SOMEBODY will let him know how crazy and silly he is if he DOESNT take the deal…?
And I’m sure Ciara has nothing to do with his decision…
shooo….give it to me…put me on the field…I’ll take it
Gladly
Hey Khaki?
Morning Ms.Red
Russell was a 3rd round pick. He was named Rookie of the year in 2012 and a year later led the team to a Super Bowl win and then they went back in 2014. They need to pay this boy. His first contract was only $2.99 million.
Hey Sexi TanLady…
Morning Ms. Payne
Good morning Whitty!?
Gd morning peeps! U can lead a horse to water but u can’t make him thank
Right…They are trying to play him….
You know nothing of football. He is making pennies compared to his counterparts. Two NFC championships. One super bowl. Back to back super bowl appearances. Run me my money.
How Sway? Is he even working now? Is Ciara in the studio? Is she in c-support court for lil Advent? I mean where these coins about to come in from?
Alot of the things being discussed just wasn’t my bag.and it seems that the one thing every one is entitled to (opinions) can cause unwarranted attacks,and other foolishness. basic school yard tiffs!so to keep me treating everyone like ADULTS.then I stick to posts that I can control my emotions with.
Hey boo!
GM.. EXACTLY. They paying them other boys. Hell they trying to put him on an EBT budget for. He’s proven himself straight out the gate.
If ya’ll cheap asses don’t pay him. Flacco gets 120 for 6 years…FLACCO…he is trash…smh…OH so you CAIN’T play the black man huh?!?!….lol
GM!!
GM.
Don’t even get me started on Jay Cutler.
Mawning suga!!! PREACH!!!!!
Girl…That waste of coin…I’ll never forgive him for Fantasy 2013
So this is Ciara’s fault because …… Blankest state. Don’t worry I WON’T wait. It ain’t her fault.
But er um yea. He better ask for his money up front. If he has 3 years in the league and one of which includes a championship ring and a super bowl appearance that they almost won back to back… HE DESERVE ? That’s the problem folks are afraid to ask. You have not cause you ask not. Trust and believe they will work it out. It’s called negotiations people. Happens all the time. You don’t have to take the first offer …
Good morning to you mz.www!!!!
U BETTER SPEAK EARLY THIS MORNING!
Say it again ( in my pinky voice)
Walks back in.. And this is the time he needs to be asking while he can!!! There are a lot of folks getting a lot of money not doing ish. Like Jake Cutler. I just got ‘noyed.. Let me walk
Right, I Keep Failing to understand what does Ciara have to do w/this??
Did 3 miles yesterday!! Trying to lose 20 pounds by my bday in October!
Right…His daddy was a lawyer, I’m sure he taught him a thing or two. HE probably wants a long term contract and they acting like he is not worth the investment…They not use to play “ball” with someone with smarts….sads…
Sandra mad at her bout something. Probably because she didn’t stay with Past Tense.
GET IT!! I need 20 by sept…we got this!
Good Morning Roses.
Who still waiting for Meek?
lololol
U BETTER SPEAK EARLY THIS MORNING!
Say it again ( in my pinky voice)
It’s like .. I know you trying to make Ciara not being worthy of life fetch but if you want a good story you don’t have to include that … But I am just a nobody … Trying to tell anybody about King Jesus on a blog so let me slide on ..
Ugh…I’m so tired of hearing about this and it hasn’t been a FULL week.
He wants his guaranteed money. UPFRONT. They cannot play forever. Get it while you can. I think he is smart and will be good afterwards but hey I still say this is the time for him to negotiate because he has the upper hand

Yes! We need to hold each other accountable! My problem is consistency in working out. If you don’t, follow Healthy Jenell on FB. Her transformation is so inspiring.
See…PAY HIM….how of him got rings?
GM
She got a insta? FB is the devil.
GM
Hey Taken!!! :hugs:
Sandra don’t like facts. At least 25?of them QBs plain suck. Seahawks my team, so I’m already biased. Pay him.
not to mention he was draft in baseball….they make BANK
There’s nothing wrong with knowing your worth…I wish he could slide a quick $33,214 my way tho
Russell saying Bih betta have my $$$
Motning!
Bring the facts Khaki…I see u!!!!!????
She waiting to see if anybody else care … Cause she don’t but she got to pretend ???
Like how in the HELL is Elizabeth ex View new Fox lady brother in law making more?? S/N I did originally say husband. Google works when you want to report facts. :).
Yes! Same name.
GET OUT OF MY HEAD. I was like MATT HASSELBACK?!?!
??? Hola
I miss that emote .. Sads
????? you broke it all the way down to the dollar….no cents? ????
I tell you what though.. I love seeing that GA boy Auburn graduate Cam Newton at #2!!!!!
Yeah but phuck that, if offered, I’m taking that 10-15 mil and you won’t hear a peep from me afterwards lol. Then again, those injuries are reckless. Morning tho luvn ?
OH KAY!!!
This may he an #unpopularopinion, but folks mad about Josh Smith. If you go from making 14 million, to 1.5 and the only reason you get the other 5 is because your last team owe you, you would be mad too.
Like how in the HELL can Jameis Winston crab legs thieving azz make more than Russell Wilson this year and he ain’t even touched a professional football???
I got her! Do those slim quick gummies work?
He’s the Latrell Sprewell of 2015.
They said they had to refund 9000 downloads since his twitter beef with Drake.
I have no clue who most of those QB’s are on that list.
I could handle the cents ??. ??
hey luv! ;-x
Do yall have weight loss clinics in your areas? The issues with the gummies and others is you have to take to damn many of them a day.
Or Mariotta who will be a dud.
Cam is that dude????
even though we been talking Hey BABE!!
I don’t kbow. Never used them. I know her before and after is WOW!
Thats not her husband. He ain’t played a sport in MANNIE years. It’s her brother inaw??? I think.side note I try to chose my words wisely but I despise a lot of her thoughts. She is ignorant. Yesterday a former law enforcement official was on Fox and pointed out how the cop unnecessarily escalated the Sandra Bland stop by asking about the cigarette and then letting his ego get in the way bc her response was not illegal or fineable…this twat said but she could have used the cigarette as a weapon so he had to protect himself. Ok ..and yes the man was white too before anyone asks
My husband be looking at me when I’m watching the games.. I be like boy I’ll go to jail you ain’t go no worries…
STAWP!! GO FIND YOUR NEW NUMBERS MEEK ..FOR SALES
Shid you right.. His name is Tim. He retired in 2007 and is now an ESPN analyst. My bad for misinformation. I got it by watching auntie.
Yeah that’s her BIL. I saw that yesterday. I wonder does she belirve what she says or she just has to go along.
lolol!
I saw that too
He was not ready.
New post on Flex being lame
Wouldn’t hear from me EITHER but he knows he can get it… AND SHOULD!
Soooooo
Did you see that Safari dropped a new track saying he wrote majority of the Pink Print and calling Meek fat??
Russy still on his Rookie contract but they have a ring and then got to the dance again. Pay him like he weighs. They won’t one of these east coast teams will
You don’t know how much this blessed me. RIGHT pay that boy!
I cant stand Elisabeth Either, she is rude and ignorant.
Yeah that’s her Bro in law that’s still in the league.
I get that but uhhhhh… Josh was a bust. Ain’t really delivered anyway he has played. He was lucky to get signed. He is actually delusional thinking he should still get them coins. So he needs to reasses and pray he has been saving. So yea it’s a big difference but uhhh.. If you had been saving and not acting like you was going to make that forever …
I get that but shid Jameis aint’ played one game and he getting paid more. We will take him over here and he’ll be closer to his boo and stepbaby. I’m so petty
BOL BOL BOL!!!!!
Bingo. Again this IS THE TIME TO NEGOTIATE. I’m tired … Lol
Yea but Jameis HAPPY BURFDAY was a college sensation and his team made history. He has to gets his upfront too in case he doesn’t adapt to the professional league. It happens. I mean .. TEBOW… Russell made his name in the NFL
WHALE! She been dogging him and he stayed silent. She alienating everyone over a dude who I’m SURE has skid marks in his draws.
Sorry I thought you said husband .. Shamed .. Reading is fundamental. I was in the bathroom posting ???? stomach hurt
BYE no you didn’t mention Tebow.. Where he at now?? LMAO.. he let them all down.
True. I know him only of this situation. I think I heard he was a douche. Ah well.
?????
Gm
Boo I did. You got me together and I edited. I didn’t want to be attacked by the trolls in two weeks when they finally get around to it.
Agreed!
I would let him marry my daughters though. He a good man Savannah. And a hard worker. He a winner ?? at life
??? I love it!!! Ur comments are hilarious!!!!
Cuz you know they will. ???
Lol. Ok I just didn’t want to be a ROSE SCOWLER on here ..
I had the gif where he was saying it… But SanRo has it in moderation ???
Right on the Nick Cannon post I said my sister died from “complications of Lupus” I got notifications going off saying um you can die from lupus and not complications. WELL if you want to be technical no you can’t. She died of Renal Failure due to the complications of Lupus.
BYE!!!! I’m taking a time out!! Cause what you just said…
And he love the lawd!!
Mawning Slant!
mawning roses…Frick and Frack *….sigh*. gotta do some work.
This is my scene! Cube held it together so well.
Morning Lucy!!!! ?
This my scene too- I cried tears when I first seen it!!!!?
I mean I would have had to do that scene a hundreds times from laughing messing with Pinky.
I think I do…I take green tea pills….they have been working
She’s bird…
I saw your post…I hope your day is filled with blessings from your angel (sister).
GM
No other way to describe it.
Hey Poo, yeah I see the Veterans hanging in there. We’re still missing alot tho. How’ve you been?
Man look. I’m a movie fanatic. You may even catch me saying the lines. Color Purple? No one watches that one with me any longer. I’m all up in front of the tv reenacting scenes..IF YOU DON’T SITCHO AZZ DOWN SOMWHERE!!!
My other scene is when he comes into the Christmas party shouting Murr Chrismuh! Hilarity.
Da hayle! I’m just mad because in reflection, I do believe you are right.
How you refund dowloads? I thought once you purchased them that was it. It’s not like taking a 45 back to the store.
Run that man his money. Immejiatedly.
I’m not familiar with him at all, thanks for the insight.
???? he was excited too…but wait what about the landlord talking about “tell yo daddy I said hiiiiii”
??????? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/00cdcbd4a32df7162c0c5b44a168617e19acefca58fa8b9dc4c0a2f2e1c3937c.jpg
????? me too!
Color Purple had countless reenactments!!!!
OKAY!!! i wouldn’t turn down 21.50 right now….
I don’t know football, but I know money….is he stupid?
HM. A measly 1.5 million…?
ok cause adapex and phentermine will have your azz dropping weight like these celebrities having babies and skinny the next day.
I doubt he’s holding out to impress Ciara. He may be obsessing over her a little bit, but I get the impression that he calls the shots in the relationship. He been calling the shots on the football field. He doesn’t need any help in that area.
Good morning,
I have to google what is Ciara net worth because how or WHY would you let your man refuse a raise of 20 milli??
??????
Let me go make this appt then.
Guhl this WHOLE movie have me hollin!!!I especially like when money Mike was checkin his girl for seeing his shyt being stole outta their store!pure tears when he tole her,’YO EYEZ AINT JUST HAZEL,THAY SUPPOSED TO DO SUM GYDAMN WORK ‘ROUND HERE!!!'(shakes head)canary you got me on these folks job re enacting movies and shyt!!!:’)))))
Uh-uh,how bout when day-day came back in the diner to tell his ppl how Santa Claus (RS) just robbed him and cube!!!!
Ciara had NOTHING to do with him turning down anything. geeze…
I know Cube laughed 100 times before they got the final scene, LOL – his face is priceless!
I believe he did too there is no way that was one take. That seen was hilarious to say the least!!!!
Smh. But he probably has more years in him. May feel like the best is yet to come. I’m with it. *hums BBHMM*
All on his punk arse rookie contract. I don’t get what the prollem is.
They can’t survive on her album sales…. so he should take the money. I don’t know why athletes make dumb decisions like this. One play, one injury, could cost you your entire career… take the 20 mill!!!!
?????????
I’m on the floor…he was dead serious too when he was checking her!!!!
What about when the baby mama rolled up on them at work and threw that brick threw his windshield!!!!!!
(TEARS)I swear I won’t let you get me FYED off my job TAHDAY,NO MAAM!!!!
The Temptations and The Five Heartbeats are the ones I ESPECIALLY love to do!!!!Uny,I just escaped canary and I’m fleeing from you too fo you have me in my BIG RED character after he decided against throwing BIRD out the window!(disappears in a puff of smoke)!!!!’))))))
??? ok I’ll stop!!!!!
Christian Ponder makes more than Russell Wilson?! That’s a crime man.
So, It’s ok for Cam Newton to make more money than Russell, even though he never went to the Super Bowl. They are cheating this man big time. He should be paid big bucks. Any way his agent is calling the shots with the negotiations.
I see ur claws…Fall back …That’s that mans business…Jealousy is a horrible thing!!
Umm, WAYMENT, This dude just turned down a FRIGGIN 20 MILLION DOLLAR a YEAR PAYRAISE? WHAT IN THE WORLD? Makes no sense…. UGH. SHIIIDDD, I’d be happy with a $5 Milly raise…. Must be niceeee to turn down moolah like that. I guess he got it like that..
Are you serious? If that manly, wig wearing dummy is responsible for this, he is a stupid as she/he is. She doesn’t even make a million dollars a year not to mention hasn’t had a hit in how long? I do not want him running to the black community screaming one word about racism when he is dumped and banned from the league. He has lost his mind. Maybe he needs a field trip to the ghetto to give him a reality check. Done……
LOL, meanwhile folks out in these struggle streets begging for overtime, trying to get their co-workers to give them a shift and offering to do odd jobs for neighbors just so they can earn a extra measly $20 so they can make some things happen. Life is a crazy thing
He will think about it tonight and by daybreak, he WILL accept that money! LOL
If you really know how these negotiations work? This is a smart move on his part, because now he can get the franchise price, and not be stuck in a 5 to 7 year contract.
