LOL!! Tosh rules!
If that’s from the latest episode, I have it on my DVR… just waiting for my g/f to have time ot watch it. I might sneak a peak now.
"Take the damn survey!" - Mr. Dave
Where ARE all the Bush sycophants these days?
I haven’t heard hardly a peep out of ol’ pizza boys supporters here lately.. I really miss their delusional ramblings.
I still think he's a good player, but not for the amount of chedder he gets.
Sproles is making me not miss him.
Stat of the day:
40 attempts for 119 yards with a 3.0 ypc, 13 receptions for 86 yards, one receiving touchdown, 2 fumbles, one lost, 1,000,000 arguments as to whether he “disrupts gameplans”. These stats were gained while the starter of nontalented backs.
15 attempts for 134 yards with a 8.9 ypc, one rushing touchdown, 26 receptions for 224 yards, one receiving touchdown, 0 arguments as to whether he “disrupts gameplans”, 1,000,000 instances of “Reggie Who?”. These stats were accumulated as a third down back in a very talented group of backs.

One is an NFL running back, and the other is Reggie Bush.
Do I win a prize?

Wow. You sure outdid yourself this time, Banks.
What’s tomorrow’s stat of the day? Apples are red, oranges are not?
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
What?
I compared someone who was a starter to a 3rd down back. You’d almost never compare the two since the starter is supposed to have more stats. However, the starter doesn’t have more stats in this case. Which is the only reason they can be compared. A starter, in what is expected to be a run heavy offense, can’t get more stats than a 3rd down back.

Apples and oranges can be compared, also. That doesn’t make it a GOOD comparison. What does his being in the lineup on the first offensive snap have to do with anything? He was technically a “starter” with the Saints and didn’t do d*** here, either. What’s expected to be a run heavy offense BY WHOM? Miami is currently 56.1% PASS heavy. They brought in Bush as a primary offensive weapon this offseason, someone who has NEVER excelled as a rusher at the pro level. Do you honestly believe the Dolphins were unaware of this? They were simply telling Bush what he wanted to hear, so he’d agree to the trade. As far as actual offensive production goes, Bush has accounted for 38.8% of the Dolphins’ backfield yardage. Sproles has accounted for 45.7% of the Saints’. Granted, Bush is being used 47% of the time to Sproles’s 30%. That’s far more indicative of the of talent around them though, as you alluded to. Miami is a two man backfield. New Orleans is a three man backfield. Bush’s utilization should taper off some with Slaton now in the mix, meaning his yardage will, as well. For what it’s worth, it’s not uncommon for a 3rd down back in a RBBC to outperform a “starter” in a RBBC statistically. You’re playing up his “starter” status, like he’s getting the lion’s share of the touches. He’s not. In terms of cumulative statistics, Sproles is outperforming him in most every facet of the game. Was this unexpected? Did this necessitate a self-proclaimed “Stat of the Week” breakdown? Of course not. He plays for the more explosive team on offense. He has more talent around him at RB. He has a top tier QB to keep opposing front sevens honest. The only real advantage Bush has is that Miami utilizes their RBs more often in at least some capacity (not necessarily rushing) and that advantage is smaller this season than it has been in years. The reason? Thomas/Bush is no Brown/Williams. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
Miami is also 0-4, so they have to pass more.
Do you honestly believe the Dolphins were unaware of this?
Yes. Sparano said Reggie Bush would be an every-down back, despite him being Reggie Bush. They’re also paying him every-down running back money.
You’re playing up his "starter" status, like he’s getting the lion’s share of the touches. He’s not.
He was. Until Miami realised he can’t. And now he doesn’t. In fact, he’s barely getting on the field at times. Bush had every opportunity, but remember he’s still Reggie Bush.

They’re passing more both with a lead and when trailing thusfar this season.
Yes. Sparano said Reggie Bush would be an every-down back, despite him being Reggie Bush. They’re also paying him every-down running back money.
$2.5M in 2011 is hardly every-down running back money.
He was. Until Miami realised he can’t.
Circa 2007, when the rest of the league “realised” [sic] he can’t. They wanted him as a complementary back to Thomas, fed him a line to get him on board and that’s exactly what he’s become. No surprises.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
Not everyone is as gullible as the Reggies and Comedics of the world
Dolphins acquired Reggie Bush from the Saints for S Jonathon Amaya.
Bush gets a new two-year, $9.75 million deal to be the Dolphins’ scat back and complement for rookie Daniel Thomas. While Bush won’t suddenly turn into an early-down back in Miami, he does figure to see more rushing attempts than he got over the last couple of years in New Orleans’ situational scheme. Still, Bush’s name is worth way more than his fantasy game, even in PPR circles. Thomas is the unquestioned feature back and will push for 250 carries.

Quote:
Before training camp:
When asked about Reggie Bush Tuesday, coach Tony Sparano said, “I would think he’s going to have the most touches and the most carries.”
During training camp:
"This is something three weeks into training camp here or whatever it is, four weeks into training camp and we’re making a decision to do and again Reggie Bush is going to be the first runner out the gate here. I mean he’s going to be the starting running back. That’s what we’re doing so this is a different deal here, different role totally."
Reggie thought he was a feature-back, too:
“It’s an opportunity I’ve wanted, and envisioned, as long as I’ve played football,” said Bush, who won’t be allowed to join his teammates on the field until the NFL Players Association is recertified, which is expected sometime next week.
Even a week ago:
Though Thomas is averaging 4.9 per carry compared with Bush’s 2.9 this season, Sparano said, "Reggie is the No. 1 running back right now." He said he used Bush at least for a portion of every series Sunday and "I think that’s probably the way I’m going to use him until I’m proven otherwise.

By comparison, that's over FIVE times as much as their starting QB
Henne = $0.875m a season
Reggie Bush = $4.875m a season

“More stats”. What does that even mean? They have the same number of statistical categories. Is “yardage” now synonymous with “statistics”? Is “more” now synonymous with “better”? If so, I must have missed those memos.
You can toga party, but you can't toga fish.
All I’m saying is, you shouldn’t compare the two statistically because they’re in two very different situations. That fact shouldn’t get thrown out of the window, just because the results of the comparison aren’t what you’d expect them to be, based on those differences. In recognizing that the results are unorthodox, all you’re truly doing is validating the faultiness of the comparison.

More TDs and fewer fumbles
Who has them? I’ll give you a hint – he doesn’t play for the Saints anymore.
I’m as happy as anyone the Saints signed Darren, but enough already with all the snide, self-congratulatory jabs at Reggie. He’s moved on. Time for folks here to do the same (and be thankful he didn’t go to a good NFC team).

I agree about letting Reggie move on..
but who does Reggie have fewer fumbles than? Mark Sanchez?
Reggie has 2 fumbles this year to Darren’s zero. Reggie also has almost double Darren’s fumbles career-wise (21-13).
I compiled all the stats for their careers several weeks ago in a discussion about this. As a percentage of touches, Bush has fewer fumbles than Sproles. Naturally those numbers didn’t include the last few weeks, so I don’t know if the percentages have changed in Sproles’ favor. They may have.
My point is why the hell does anyone here care? At least once a week there’s some rant about how much press a crappy team like the Eagles are getting, when the Saints get so little. This is the same thing. How does a post about a tweet about Bush on Tosh.0 deserve front page status and as many comments as Juge’s offensive player grades? If I want to read about how bad Reggie is sucking this year, I can go over to the Phinsider where I’m sure they are ranting about it.
Because people enjoy hating. Hating on those who make more money and are more talented is what gets us through the day. We laugh and say things like “Paris Hilton is ugly”….because she’s prettier than we are, but she’s an ugly pretty person so it makes us smile.

Neither ugly nor cute, imo. Put it this way … if I passed her in the mall, I wouldn’t turn to stare at her ass.

Somewhat agree. I think she falls into the mildly attractive category…unless you start talking about her personality. But there was just always something slightly off about her that kept me from saying she was actually attractive.

She has nice skin color. There’s nothing wrong with her body…women shouldn’t apologize if they don’t walk around with honkers that impede their movement. A non perfect smile also can add character. I do admit there’s always been a little something off about her nose, however. But please….anyone that says she’s ugly should really sit in front of their mirror some times and come to grips with what’s really bothering them.

She may look good, but to me, being a whore really makes a girl unattractive. And there’s a difference to me between a woman who has sex with a lot of guys and a woman who lives that lifestyle.

Probably because whether it intersested you or not, it has been a heavily and passionately debated topic among saints fans for the past few years. Back then it was speculation, now the matter can finally be settled.

I was very interested in discussing the ups and downs of Reggie’s performance, when he played for the Saints.
now the matter can finally be settled.
Apparently not – why else we would keep seeing posts about him here, with the debate raging on? I would guess there are more comments about Bush on active CSC threads right now than there are about any of the current Saints RBs. I’ll admit I’m partly to blame by coming back here to make this comment, and more importantly for not having posted a FanPost about why Ingram keeps getting the lion’s share of rushes when Pierre is clearly running better right now. But I don’t get to decide what’s on the front page, and by extension, what gets the most attention.
I just find it disturbing, and a little annoying, that so many Saints fans are wallowing in schadenfreude about Reggie’s current performance and situation on a sub-par offense. I don’t understand the fascination with a former Saints player – it’s not like anyone is posting about Mike Bell failing even to make a practice squad this year.
This is my one football comment of the day.
it’s not like anyone is posting about Mike Bell failing even to make a practice squad this year.
We didn’t draft Bell #2 over all. People are still hurt over what we could have had and what we got. Phew! That took a lot out of me.

Chuck Wagon was a 1st round pick
and certainly disappointed after the great start. He generated quite a lot of rage in Saints fans while he was here, but I don’t remember anything like this when Grant went to the Dolphins and continued to struggle.
That’s because it was pretty much unanimous that Grant needed to take his fat ass elsewhere.
For some reason there are still reggie apologists around here.

He's not the biggest bust of all time or anything silly...
and on rare occasions, he even took over games. You’d just expect better consistency and reliability and durability out of the 2nd overall draft pick. Especially in a draft class where MoJo Drew went in the 3rd round.
