PHOTO: 14-Year-Old Russell Wilson with Cal Ripken Jr.

Throwback.

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is at the top of the football world. But when he was 14, his mind was on baseball. The Richmond Forum Archives recently dug up this great photo of Wilson with Cal Ripken Jr. in 2003.

Russell's baseball dreams weren't far-fetched either. He played a couple seasons in the Rockies farm system and attended a Rangers Spring Training workout this year.
