Notice how I put a Sproles pic tweet right after the Reggie Bush tweets
I still love and respect Reggie, but damn I’m glad we have Sproles now. He’s been a total upgrade and everything we always dreamed Reggie would be. I don’t mean to bash Bush and I know Reggie gave us great effort most of time (many times I think he was trying too hard and wound up hurting us), but DAMN! Sproles is AWESOME!

I've always liked Bush, too...
…but after this offseason and his injury-faking comment about the Saints, I’m finding it harder and harder to keep defending him. Of course, I don’t spend much time defending him anymore because of SPROLES!!!!!!!!!
TWSS?
Bring on the brand new Renaissance, 'cause I think I'm ready!
Well I've been shaking all night long, but my hands are steady.
Thanks for the support.

F*** Bush! F*** him in the ear!
Sproles rules!
"Dang! The Saints won the Super Bowl!" - my wife, Meso "Happy" Hu Dat.
So, I take it you don't share my sympathy for Bush's current situation?
Just a vibe I’m picking up from you. :)

Well, you know what they say:
A Bush in one hand is better than… something something.

From Pat Y's piece on Sproles
"Sprolesy has been awesome,’’ Brees said.
Sprolesy?…really?
Some folks have been trying to get a nickname for Sproles, and maybe this lame one is it…
WIN NOW
WINGRAMANIA!!!!
I think you mean “Mighty Mite”. Otherwise the joke about his size doesn’t fit.
And I always liked that nickname for him. Dunno if it will catch on NO tho.
When I was in Japan, I had a customer that wanted
to name one of thie electronic tools for business, “Pocket Ball”. I recommended against it.
Whodat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bring back Aaron Brooks! He's the only one who can save us from the evil that is Drew Brees!!
I love Sproles
What if Miami cuts Bush? Imagine the Saints picking him up.. now imagine the headaches Sproles, Graham, and Bush will cause when they are on the field at the same time

Bush will never be a Saint again
Something went on with Reggie off the field, he lost the confidence of Brees and the coaches. As much as can be said about the paycheck, I don’t think it was that at all. There’s a few under-performers who are back in black and gold, and it’s because they get along with people plus they are team players. I’m not sure exactly what happened with Bush, but I think it’s pretty clear we don’t want him back here – Sproles or no Sproles.
Totally agree with the article about Goodell.
I find it hard to believe the NFL can’t find someone better. One bad decision after another has become the norm for this guy.
