Nobody Knows Ball Like Russell Wilson Knows Ball
This guy just gets it, man.
There are far too many idiots out there who have never watched a single second of lacrosse yet feel the need to run their mouths about it. Personally I think these folks just feel a little threatened that there's yet another sport out there that they'd be horrible at playing. But I digress.
The fact of the matter here is that Russell Wilson knows what he's talking about. He's seen the game, he knows the game, he appreciates the game. Uptempo basketball mixed with the physicality of football featuring absolute psychopath goalies who stand in front of 100+ mph shots with hardly any pads on. I'll take that description of the sport 7 days a week. A little hockey thrown into the mix with the fluidity of the game and subbing on the fly. Maybe even add some baseball in there in terms of the hand-eye coordination requirements. Basically, lacrosse is just the best of every sport combined into one. Russell Wilson gets it, and so should you.
Though I do have to deduct some points here from thinking that Collegiate School in Virginia is "one of the best teams in the country". No offense or anything but that's not even remotely close. I get that everybody thinks the high school they went to was always the best at everything, but I don't think Collegiate School would crack the top 100.
With that being said, the fact that he gave some shoutouts to DIII schools tells me everything I need to know. Russell Wilson knows ball.
Sidenote: PLL throwback jerseys. So hot right now.
