Reggie Bush is the new Aaron Brooks, or will be soon

Before anyone has a stroke, no, I am not comparing their play on the field. What I am seeing though is a splitting of opinions on Bush, and defensive reactions to those opinions.

I know I am not the only one seeing this, and it's been the loudest after this last weekends game. Having read through a few of these threads, you can sense that the mods are going to soon be hard at work deleting threads and sending people to camp. ;)

Am I the only one seeing this?

Yes


wait I need more words.

Yes you are the only one seeing this because it would be idiotic to have a fight over Reggie Bush. Who do you bench him for? Aaron Stecker? It's not like he's a QB whose holding his backup back. At most benching him would produce another 8 or so carries for deuce to split with his backup Stecker. Woo, hoo.

Beyond which, a lot of people had personnal problems with Brooks (for whatever reason), Bush on the other hand has been very much team first, community first. It seems almost impossible any reasonable person would have a personnal problem with Bush.

If you want to condemn him as a "bust" 8 games into his career, you know, whatever, but at most the discussion centers around giving Deuce an additional 8 carries a game and I can't see how that is remotely inflammatory, not in the way Brooks was.

The Brooks/Delhomme arguement, sadly, seemed to cross more then just football lines.
