Reggie Bush throws former team under the bus, says Saints faked injuries

09-22-2011, 07:38 PM

He choked as a Saints, Kris Humphries married Kim Kardashian, he got traded to the Dolphins, and now he's losing snaps to Daniel Thomas. He's got to stay relevant some how.

The longer this guy is gone, the more I'm happier he is gone. I know it wasn't him that told players to do it(if that is even the case) , but he did rat....and that can't sit well with other NFL players and former team mates.

I don't have a problem with him saying it either... everyone does it. But with the types of punishment Goodell is going to enforce, lost of draft picks included, he should have went the Scott Fujita route and not specifically name us. He could have just said well I know of some players and teams that have done this in the past... and that's it.

See that's my thing. The Saints I'm sure fake injuries along with EVERY team in the NFL and NCAA. Problem is...the league just brought about the possible punishment of even losing draft picks and he's going to out a specific team.

Lord knows the league was watching the Giants closely now after what happened Monday night. So what will Reggie's comments do? Put the Saints in the crosshairs as well.

I don't know why the NFL doesn't just impose a rule that when a man goes down like in the Giants game, he can't re-enter the game until the next possession. Going down would mean sitting out the rest of a drive. You could even make it two possessions. No other penalty needed.

Exactly.

Have we not paid him enough? Does he not have a Superbowl ring? Did we not trade him to a location that suits his talents and where you could get more playing time?

Well Reggie, while you're in the confession booth, why not tell us all about the gifts you and your family received while playing ball in college... I mean it's legal right? .. oh wait, it's not...doh!
I think you're last person that should be pointing fingers about ethics... I'm just sayin.

He's nothing more than a snitch and is only worried about what's good for Reggie.

As if there was ever any doubt. This is a business & he is looking out for number one.

I would hope that some people have more loyalty or team spirit & take the game more for a game BUT... I am not stupid (much)
