Now we know why Reggie made those strategic comments about injuries and turf... He is trying to set up a bidding war. His value goes up if more than one team is interested in him, besides the Saints.
Nothing's happened yet, of course. But this latest rumor/speculation plays into my "theory" again -- that if he leaves the Saints, Reggie Bush is most likely going to go to a team that is having attendance or marketing troubles, off the field. A team that needs jersey sales, bodies in the stadium, and TV blackouts lifted. San Diego, Tampa Bay, Oakland, St. Louis, maybe Miami. Someplace like that -- some team that's in the bottom third of attendance, ticket sales and revenue will want him. An owner like that would be willing to pay him MORE than what he's worth on the field, just to get people to go to the games or buy merchandise.
