Note: To all of you Bush Haters...
Bush.........
I agree with most of you from both sides of the fence. Bush will not become the elite back "WE" all were hoping for when we drafted him. I don't even feel he will reach B. Westbrrok status in his career.
Bush will be a decent RB with outstanding pass-catching ability. He will make people miss in the open field, but will never be a traditional RB.
As long as we have Bush on this team, we will need a "REAL" running back in that backfield with him. Which is what a slew of teams are doing now anyway.
Its just a shame that Bush is being paid to be elite, and is performing average at best, and will not ever reach elite status. By elite, I mean Marshall Faulk, BArry Sanders, Walter Payton, Earl Campbell, Emmitt Smith, Eric Dickerson, Tony Dorsette or Marcus Allen. So, in that frame of mind, he is not even close to being elite.
His career will be injury riddled, likely each and every year. While he will win games for us and will lose a few also, I will venture to say his impact will be more positive than negative.
This my friends is money not very well spent. But, whats done is done, we just have to live with it. We have all overspent before and survived, so will the Saints.
And before one of you clowns start passing judgement on me for my opinion. I am a diehard as the next, so don't even go there with the fairweather
cr@p.
For the record, I am a season ticket holder of 14 years, I don't think I can count on my two hands how many home games I have missed, including when we were homeless. I travel to TB, ATL, almost every year and every now and then we go to Charlotte.
And as far as people booing, I have done it, and recently. Its all part of the game. If I were the only person booing when RB fumbled last game, I must be the loudest booer in the world, because it echoed in the Lodge section.
