I agree that the team is more important than the individual, but, they still hand out individual awards at the end of the season. Wouldn't you like for 1 of our rookies to be recognized as being the best in the league?
and as for GoldRush...
Who said anything about Rookie of the year? I couldn't care less if he gets rookie of the year or not. As long as he helps to keep the offense productive does it really matter? That doesn't change his importance to this team if he doesn't become ROY. He's still highly important.
Slow down there Goldie... If you go back a page, LongTimeFan made the comment that Colston coulld be in contention for ROY. I agree with him. If he doesn't get the award at the end of the season, you're right, it doesn't diminsh his importance to the team. However, would it be so bad for him to be recognized for his contributions to his team as a rookie?
Well I was talking about Bush, not Colston. Colston only entered the conversation because of ghandi. My point was that Bush's helping this team to open up its offense is more important than individual accolades. Colston stands a good chance to be ROY, but I believe his success is owed in part to the attention that Bush recieves on every play.
