LOL

this reminds me of that Office episode in which Michael Scott promises to send that whole class to college on his dime, but ends up only giving them laptop batteries!!! LMAO

OH LOL!

I was JUST going to post about this. That episode is the first thing I thought of.

He had to keep the money

to pay his lawyers and/or Kim’s salon bills.

But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.

"NFL star...."

He hasn’t done much in the NFL so far.

by Barnes2JJ on Feb 9, 2010 12:47 PM PST reply actions  

Exactly

Did anyone else notice that during the Super Bowl the cameras are constantly showing him? Also, he felt the need to go up on the podeum with Brees and the owners at the end. What did he do to deserve being up there? If anyone, the guy who picked Manning for 6 should have been up there. He just loves the spotlight and the media loves to give it to him. F.

On the other hand...

…poor Hank Baskett…the ball bounces off of him on that onside kick…he’s that girl Kendra’s husband in that other awful reality show…but he seems like a nice guy.

awesome point

our MJD is so much better & gets nowhere the attentions (except by those who know)

I would have rooted for the Saints but the presence of Reggie Bush prevented that…

by impaulv on Feb 9, 2010 3:25 PM PST up reply actions  

Same here

I used to like the Saints, until Mr. Kardashian joined the team. Just glad that he didn’t do anything of note during the Super Bowl, or we never would have heard the end of it. Still rankles me that so many Saints fans still wear a #25 jersey, when they should be wearing #9 or #12.

uclafan11’s point is also good: man, is that guy an attention hog. Hey, third-string running back, get the F off the podium, and mingle with the other scrubs!

He had the first 40-yard run of his friggin career against the Cardinals, and the announcers were practically down on their kneepads praising him. MJD has about 2 of those every game, not that they noticed. I guess with Bust, he’s stopped for one-yard gains so often, it stands out more when he actually gets a first down.

First on the chopping block

Watch, he’s going to be traded next year to make more salary headroom…Unless the Saints are really stupid.

*I* ran over George Tirebiter.

by Bruins102NCAA on Feb 9, 2010 8:30 PM PST up reply actions  

For sure

With the running backs they have, Bush is expendable. They don’t even have “Mr. Lighting” returning the kicks (Roby is handling it). He’ll get dealt (and to no surprise) to his ol’ buddy’s team: the Cheatey Petey Seahawks.

by Bellerophon on Feb 9, 2010 8:38 PM PST up reply actions  

Had not paid much attention to the Saints until the past week

I was actually surprised that ole’ #25 was not returning kicks. That return threat was part of what made him such a surefire #1 pick and NFL star in the making.

$12 million on this season's cap; Owed $8-9 million next season

For a 2nd string RB? Yeah, seems a strong candidate to be traded or cut before training camp.

Well, doing those endorsements, is a grueling job, and $5,000,000 doesn't go as far as it used to

Especially now, when Reggie has to pay his own expenses instead of having them paid by inheritance hall.

Who On Earth

grabs credit for a scholarship before they fund it?

Disgusting.

I'm sure once Reggie Bust sells his house in the Hollywood Hills

He will do the right thing and fund this scholarship, right?

No-Rent Reggie,

aw guys you'r being a little tough on reggie.

maybe he didn’t understand the process. his scholarship at sc only lasted one year, afterwards he found an agent to fund his “schooling.”

Well, if he's short on funds

he can always set up a table outside the mausoleum to sell his autograph.

Well, like Hello Kiffy says,

You can tell a Trogan in the first ten minutes.
