IN A PROFILE published on Wednesday in Rolling Stone, Russell Wilson offered a peculiar answer to how he recovered from a head injury he suffered during the Seahawks’ NFC Championship victory over the Green Bay Packers.
He claimed that Reliant Recovery Water, a sports drink with “nanobubbles” that Wilson has invested in, helped cure the injury, an assertion that his agent, Mark Rodgers, downplayed.
Wilson claimed that the $3 bottle of water (which contains nanobubbles and electrolytes and claims to help athletes recover faster after workouts) also healed a teammates knee injury, on top of preventing his own concussion.
“I banged my head during the Packers game in the playoffs, and the next day I was fine,” says Wilson. “It was the water.”
Rodgers offers a hasty interjection. “Well, we’re not saying we have real medical proof.”“I banged my head during the Packers game in the playoffs, and the next day I was fine,” says Wilson. “It was the water.”
But Wilson shakes his head, energized by the subject. He speaks with an evangelist’s zeal.
“I know it works.” His eyes brighten. “Soon you’re going to be able to order it straight from Amazon.”
The anecdote blew up on Twitter, and Wilson has since doubled down on his claim. On Wednesday afternoon, he said it “helped prevent” him from getting a concussion:
On the company’s website, there’s a paragraph about the drink’s supposed medical benefits:
Proven through scientific research, using recovery water will help reduce pain and inflammation from your active lifestyle; accelerate recovery from injury and muscle related stress; decrease fatigue for higher energy during activity; speed muscle recovery after activity; and deliver better hydration and an increased sense of well-being.
Going for a Chelsea win here.
Good god I should bet on these 5/7 right so far this season.
And now for the main event
Actually this is the warm up for the real main event… West Ham vs QPR.
The incident is flares being set off by arsenal fans, stewards now checking fans coming in to the ground.
Must have taken a leaf out of Galatasaray’s book, I’d say. Not a smart thing to do.
Terrible performance by arsenal , no shot on target, ridiculous playing Ozil out wide, too easy for Chelsea
All the idiots in the photo taking selfies…
Great to see Costa end his recent goal drought.
Horrible tackle by Cahill. He is lucky he didn’t do some serious damage to Sanchez.
COYG
Do it for Piers Morgan
Full kit w*nker.
Arsenal were rubbish and Chelsea were fab…
Great analyst Jack.
Arsenal were let down by their final ball and by Ozil in particular. Was a real derby game. Both sides were were lucky to finish with 11 men. The goals came from two moments of magic, only one of which Chelsea were capable of producing last year.
Can’t fault Jack for accuracy there…
Let’s green thumb it to comment of the week…
Arsenal will definitely do better than last year,
need to draw at least as 9 points behind will
be too much to chase.Arsenal need ideally to
win.
Arsenal > Chelsea > Liverpool > United
There’s 16 other teams between Liverpool and United
Jose record against Utd, arsenal, city and Liverpool: played 32, lost 3. You should probably have another go at that.
I think that should go;
Chelsea> Man City> Southampton> Man Utd……..and if you could be arsed typing it all out you’ll eventually get to Asenal> Liverpool.
Not sure how to feel about Fabregas.
I love and hate him all at once
Suppose its not his fault that Wenger didn’t sign him, apparently cesc wanted it to happen
Why do you hate Fabregas?
Because he left Barcelona
Diego de man.
Why do you hate him???
