Note: To all of you Bush Haters...

I actually agree with most of what you're saying here. It's true that Bush hasn't been the type of elite back that engraves their name on the history of the game. He has the potential, but he's never realized it. However, he's still a good player for us, and contributes immensely to our offense.

It's not Reggie's fault that he was drafted where he was, or that he is paid top pick money. If he continues to be mediocre and then demands "elite" money when it's time for his next contract, then people may have a point. Until then, they're hating on him for something that isn't really his fault, and it's dumb.

You are very much correct, Reggie took advantage of the situation, and profited big time. Like any of us would do if our career choice was in a field where our average tenure time is less that 7 years & where we risked severe injury on a daily basis.

I do see a contract restructuring coming for Bush if he does not have a highly productive season & is healthy (which I doubt) by season's end.
