Comparing Sproles vs Bush

|Mitch| · 08-07-2011, 06:01 PM

Regardless of what I think about Bush! He's gone now, so why do we need to compare Sproles, PT, Anybody to him? It doesn't matter anymore, he will never be a Saint again so why worry about it.

Sproles is here now and as long as he can stay on the field, he's better in my book. Plus he has a knack for returning kicks, so no more holding my breath with Bush standing back there...

You might also want to check the win percentage of Bush when playing in games vs when he didn't.

You'll find that we won more games without him.

Well, I feel that Reggie's qualities as a player range from "infuriating" to "jaw-dropping" and you never know what you are going to get on a given day, or even on any play during that day. I'll admit that the riverboat gambler in me always liked to see Reggie get the ball.

Despite his shortcomings in durability and consistency though, I love Reggie because he was a community guy, he was always out in NO being visible and helping out in the community and he was always gracious to us as fans. He is the type of guy off the field that I like to think that the Saints stand for as an organization. So, for me, where ever Reggie ends up, I hope he does well...just not against the saints

Bush is like the ex-girlfriend you had that you were with for 6 years and was the best thing that ever happened to you. 2 days after you break up, your telling all your friends how much you ALWAYS hated her and couldn't remember why you were with her. There are plenty of other "fish" in the sea and right now Sproles seems like one hell of a rebound.

I kinda like to think of it as a mutual breakup..where your still friends..remember the F.O wanted him back at the right price...so the love was still there...but the breakup was for the best..
