RENTON, Wash. - Russell Wilson has generally shied away from commenting on social issues during his professional career.That changed Thursday when the Seattle Seahawks quarterback spoke out about domestic violence and candidly about being a bully as a child in a column for Derek Jeters new website.Ive tended to avoid controversial topics throughout my career, but in my first piece for The Players Tribune, I wanted to be open and address something thats important, timely and relevant, Wilson wrote. Ive been silent on the issue for too long, falling back on the I cant speak to someone elses personal life excuse. But victims need physical, emotional and financial support and care, and the resources to get away from their abusers. Abusers, you need to get help a€” you can change.The column by Wilson, who was announced as a senior editor for The Players Tribune, talks about his goal to raise funds and awareness through his new foundation a€” the Why Not You Foundation a€” with an initial focus on supporting victims of domestic violence.Wilson also wrote about being a bully in elementary and middle school, saying, I had a lot of anger that I didnt know what to do with. That admission surprised teammates who read the column.Well, he said that he used to beat people up. Thats a surprise, Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman said. Obviously, he said hes turned a different page in that book, but its still pretty interesting to see that.Wilson wrote that the perception hes given is that hes been Mr. Goody Two-Shoes his entire life. But he admitted to throwing kids against a wall, rubbing their heads in the dirt, biting them and knocking out teeth.Wilson wrote he changed at age 14 and was able to start living for others instead of just myself. And now that his professional career is established, with a Super Bowl title in hand, Wilson said he is focusing on helping domestic violence victims in the wake of the attention turned on the NFL following the Ray Rice case.Wilson wrote that the issue needs to be addressed and not avoided and that aggression needs to be kept on the field.How many of you reading right now knew that October is Domestic Violence Awareness month? I certainly didnt. I had to Google it, Wilson wrote. And thats part of why I felt so inspired to do my part. This initiative, this story, is about acknowledging something difficult, something wed rather not see. When I look back at beating kids up on the playground, I dont like that image. But I moved past that place in my life, and Im proud of the man I am now.Seattle coach Pete Carroll said he talked with Wilson earlier this week about his decision to start a foundation and come out with such a strong first statement. Carroll said the team would support Wilson every way it could.Im really proud of him. I think hes involved himself in a critical issue that maybe he can elevate awareness like were all trying to do for the right reasons, Carroll said. I thought his statements were well thought out and very clear. ... Im hoping it has a great impact and people will pick up on it and add to it and well see what happens.NOTES: Carroll said LB Bruce Irvin is the only injury question headed into Monday nights game.

The Rangers needed 58 minutes to get ahead -- and then spent the final two holding on. Rick Nash snapped a tie with 1:58 left, and the Rangers sent the Stars to their fifth straight loss, 3-2 on Friday night. New York is 7-2-1 in its last 10, but more importantly, the Rangers followed up their stirring win at Chicago on Wednesday with another one at home. "We talked about it this morning," said Henrik Lundqvist, who made 24 saves to earn his second straight win. "Its always a great feeling when you come up big in the end of a game." Nash poked a rebound of Chris Kreiders shot past goalie Kari Lehtonen to give New York its first lead. Nash has 10 goals this season and three in three games. "I think it was 50 per cent luck ... well, probably 70 per cent luck and 30 per cent skill," Nash said of his 50th game-winner. "I was just following the puck. It went a little bit higher than anticipated, but luckily it went in." Ryan Callahan and Derick Brassard both erased one-goal Rangers deficits, and Brad Richards had two assists to extend his point streak to four games (two goals, four assists). Ryan Garbutt and Cody Eakin both had a goal and assist, but the Stars remained winless in 2014. Lehtonen stopped 31 shots for Dallas, which went 0-3 on its three-game trip through the New York metropolitan area. "I thought we skated better," Stars coach Lindy Ruff said. "I thought we created a little bit more and I thought we were better with the puck. We still have a ways to go, though." After being shut out for the first time this season in a 1-0 loss at New Jersey on Thursday, the Stars got their offence on track early -- grabbing the lead 4:06 in on Eakins ninth goal. Garbutt outraced Rangers defenceman Marc Staal to a loose puck deep in the New York end and sent a pass back to Eakin in the right circle. Eakin let go a shot that Lundqvist blocked with his arm, but couldnt control as it found its way in. Dallas had the lead despite being outshot 8-3 at the time in thee sluggish first period that featured multiple icings and frequent faceoffs.dddddddddddd New York tied it with 8:40 left in the period on Callahans eighth of the season and first in five games since the Rangers captain returned from a nine-game absence caused by a sprained knee ligament. Benoit Pouliot kept the puck in the Dallas zone at the right point and got it to Richards, who took a shot. Richards got to his rebound and moved the puck to his right to the streaking Callahan, who snapped in a drive as he was flying to the ice. Dallas regained the lead 3:34 into the second on Garbutts eighth goal. Antoine Roussel sent a pass that Garbutt knocked down with the shaft of his stick. He then jammed the puck between Lundqvists pads. However, the Rangers tied it 2-2 just 4:48 later when Brassard scored a power-play goal on the games first advantage. Mats Zuccarello sent a hard shot from above the right circle into the slot where Brassard deflected it past Lehtonen for his seventh of the season and fifth on the power play. "I didnt do much. I just shot it. All the credit to him," Zuccarello said of Brassard. "If its there, its there. If its not there, its not there. "I just shot it. He made a really nice tip. Its a skill play by him." The Rangers, who swept the two-game season series from Dallas, have scored a power-play goal in nine of the past 12 games. "When a power play works, it keeps the other team honest because they dont want to see the power play on the ice," Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. "Our power play has been working real well for us. Its been giving us momentum, its been giving us timely goals." New York had other scoring chances in the second, including several scrums in front of the net, but couldnt convert. Nash shot wide on a breakaway, and Richards struck the crossbar with a drive.
