    Football players are generally less recognizable since they wear masks during the games.

    Also, most seahawk fans are bandwagon.

    I'm talking about opposite cities. Will more people in Seattle know who Dame is than people in Portland know who Wilson is? I understand the number of people living in each city is vastly different.

    Lillard is more recognizable. He has more endorsements, so he has posters in sports stores. State farm, hulu, adidas, biofreeze

    I couldnt even begin to tell you what Russell Wilson endorses.

    Since Seattle doesn't have a team anymore ... (thanks for Starbucks)
    Is Dame the biggest Basket ball player ever in the PNW? Bigger than the Detlef, Kemp (the rain man), Payton, Nate, ...

    Drexler still is more iconic and in the HOF) but Lillard is in his early prime and should be when its all said and done.

    I'm thinking Wilson isn't as popular because he can't rap and can't get a shoe deal because he's always stuck in traffic.

    And did i forget to say Seattle Sucks?
