Reggie Bush: Obviously, I’m taking a pay cut | ProFootballTalk

He's trying to make himself more attractive in the open market and that is all.

bush needs to realize this may be his last shot at another ring and could ease all the pain of a lackluster career. i rattle the dice and say something of this quote will make up his mind about staying in saints uni. and of coarse a smaller contract/pay

Reggie's figuring out that other game that's played off the field. All the players have to learn how to play it. Some are better than others. Some have a boat load of chips when they sit down at the table. Some are just bluffing.
