“For me, I love the flag. I love the National Anthem because it’s an emotional time for me because I’m so grateful I get to play on the football field.
"And every time I get to put my hand on my heart, it’s truly an honor — you know, the military, for me I think about my family members who have served, and friends — I train down in San Diego all the time, so I’m around the Navy and I see those guys around. And all they do for our country and the people in Afghanistan and all these people fighting.
"9/11, for example, coming up — that’s going to be our first game and I think about all the pain from that.
So that’s why I stand and put my hand on my heart.” Russell Wilson, QB Seattle Seahawks
