Reggie Bush a Packer in 2010?

[mission]

Ziggy said yesterday that we cannot have separate threads for other players, so please take this elsewhere. I've contacted the admin about creating a not-current-packer thread.

First off, the post is kind of crappy.

Secondly, and I didn't see wherever that was written by ziggy....but I don't think that is a rule and if it was I would not at all agree with it.

Third, IMO a non packer thread would suck. This may be a packer forum but it's also a NFL forum.

Agreed. Ziggy was outrageous and completely out of line yesterday telling people what and who they can post about.

because we felt a thread titled "Brett favre for MVP" had no place here... ???

I got a little ticked at Mobb for creating another Brett Favre thread saying he should be MVP. I told him to keep it in his Brett Favre thread HE created. Partial defended Mobb and Ziggy agreed with me. Partial said if that's the case then every non Packer such as Bart Starr should have their own thread (no more than one.) The admin deleted the thread.

I don't see why we cannot post a thread about Brett Favre having a spectacular year, but could for Brady/Manning/Brees/Bush, for example. There is not a difference to me.

Brett Favre has somewhat divided this forum and Packer nation for that matter. Brady/Manning/Brees/Bush have not. Rarely do they get a thread. Favre, for a long while, took up every single post on this site. That's why...because it causes arguments.

Those guys aren't filthy traitors like Favre.

You are a broken record on this lately IMO; sometimes I think you are attempting to be what Mobb tends to be to those who disagree with you on the matter

Nonetheless, it is the reason so many are sick of the Favre threads. Those other guys aren't hated, and won't draw the criticism.

But it's your right to support Partial in his attempt to bait fights - if that's what you want to do.

I don't understand this. I've never seen this cat play, but Wiki tells me he's shorter and skinnier than Bush. At best they'd have equal speed as Bush is like lightning. Bush played much tougher opposition and carried a team in college. What has Spiller done? I just don't see this cat stacking up favorably to Reggie, who was a freak of a prospect.

Food for thought. Coming into the 2008 draft, Chris Johnson was sometimes described by draft pundits as a "poor man's Reggie Bush" based on the comparison of measurables and the relative qualities of USC versus East Carolina. However, ultimately it would be considered unreasonable praise of Bush to call him a "poor man's Chris Johnson" as Johnson does something in the NFL that Reggie Bush has never done, to wit, "run like a man possessed."

To my eyes, it's a similar story with Spiller. He's fast and shifty, but he plays like a man possessed, contributes mightily in the running game, the passing game, and on special teams and he has carried Clemson more than Reggie Bush ever carried USC (recall that his best USC teams had Matt Leinart, Steve Smith (NYG), LenDale White, and Dwayne Jarret all of whom merited premium picks in the NFL draft; how many offensive players from Clemson this year are going to go in the first three rounds? At most two (WR Jacoby Ford is a borderline third round pick, IMO).)

Bush was a guy who made spectacular plays in college because he was at all times the best athlete on the field. Spiller makes great plays in college not only because he's probably the best athlete on the field, but also because he appears to want it more than anybody else on the field. When bowl season comes around, make sure you catch Clemson's game. I may just be especially high on this guy, but I think Spiller could be special. The only knock on him is that with his size, he's very unlikely to be able to be a workhorse back, though he is solidly built. But hell, we could really use a RB who's at least moderately explosive when he gets the ball. I would say Spiller compares positively to Bush (in college) in terms of his vision, instincts, and patience as a runner (i.e. he sets up his blocks very well). Spiller also breaks a ton of tackles for a guy his size, more than I remember Bush doing (though to be honest, I don't remember too many tacklers being in position to make tackle Bush at all when he was at USC.)

I have a hunch that Thompson may be really high on this guy too. He's scouted Clemson pretty hard over the past 2-3 years and yet never drafted anybody from there (Spiller's a senior).

Reggie Bush is not an every down back. He'd compliment Grant, not replace him.

i agree. if the saints can't figure out what to do with him clueless mm won't either.

First off, I told Partial I think his comments were crappy

Secondly, I didn't see what went down yesterday so I would know enough to support anybody

Thirdly, I would not support the idea of not being able to have a thread on a person, such as Reggie Bush

And Fourth, one could interpret your constant traitor cracks as an attempt to bait as well
