How many years have you been married?King Dog":3gnivxn8 said:hawknation2014":3gnivxn8 said:King Dog":3gnivxn8 said:What can I say? I've watched him like everyone here since he was drafted.

If it comes out that she cheated on him or there was some other major problem, then fine. Otherwise, they made the commitment and then only gave it two years. This doesn't mean I think he's a bad guy, or she's a bad girl, it just means that I think they threw in the towel too easily. That's how I feel. I take the marriage vows seriously....
Marriage isn't easy. Not everyone can make it work.
It can also be unilaterally revoked by one party.
Just sayin'. . . you know what they say about people in glass houses.
No worries. No glass houses here (married for 9 years).....

When fans were cheering RW showing up @5am in the morning at the Gym, I remember saying "RW needs to spend more time with his family". When he struggled towards the end of the season, I remember saying "RW needs to spend more time with wife @home". I'm starting to believe now that his struggles towards the end of last season were the consequence of his family falling apart.
I know fans want their favorite players working hard 24 hours a day, but I doubt anyone of us with a family and a young bride could do the same thing. Having a wife @ home who almost never sees her man is just not realistic.
I don't mean to know what went on in that RW Family, but I'm very disappointed in Russell Wilson. Especially given the way he wears his "faith" on his sleeves.
What's next? A book by Ashton? A sit down with Oprah?

Insightful analysis. (except the speculation I snipped)
I also wouldn't be surprised if Russell got to have a man-to-man talk with Michael Jordan about marriage, assets, etc., and Michael may have had 168 million words of advice to share with him.

To think your familial situation is the same as everyone else's is the pinnacle of social ignorance, narcissism, and judgmental behavior.
If your spouse happened to come home tonight and suddenly decided to divorce you for good, should we look down on YOU and tarnish YOUR reputation?
This their business alone. None of us know how they are feeling or who initiated it. To judge them without knowing the facts is beyond stupid.

He had an obvious arm injury that caused plenty of obvious over throws.
Remember him switching sides to pick up the Gatorade with Zach Miller in the Super Bowl SoundFX?
This was basically my first thought as well. Dude's at the C-Link at 5 AM after the loss to AZ. Not thinking the Mrs. was real fond of that.Polaris":12a6yfki said:My best and only guess (unless and until I know more) is this:
Wilson is a known workaholic, and I am guessing that Ashton had a few too many lonely nights in a strange city (at least for her), and finally had enough.
That's as far as I'm willing to speculate.
