Nice read. Obviously the fat guy likes Bush, a lot.

In every NFL draft -- actually, with virtually every selection in every round of any draft -- beauty is in the eyes of a team's allegedly elite contingent of talent beholders. Unfortunately for many franchises, those beholders are frequently blind men.

So true.

 

[Dave Baker]

Ladies and gentlemen, your Houston Texans, an outfit that might do better were Mr. Magoo executing its lottery selections. Hand out the darts, folks, and take cover. Even quarterback David Carr, throwing from his back, which is where he has been for most of his four seasons in Houston, has better aim than his bosses.

Of course, it doesn't mention the fact that Len is good friends with Bush's agent, who now looks like a total idiot...

I doubt Pasky's opinion and article is based on his friendship with Bush's agent.

You wouldn't if you noticed that Len has a loooooong history of pieces that favor his agent buddies.

Any link or other substantiation?

Are you kidding? FatBelly kisses the ### of quite a few people, the most obvious of which is the Skins and Danny Snyder. Its why his writing is unreadable. Much of his stuff is completely biased.

Its yet another reason ESPN sucks for reporting.

No.

 

[Bojang0301]

If he is asking 30$ mil as an RB f that.

 

[Gargoylez]

Well he voiced his opinion. I beleive he could of done it with a tad more class, but what do you want from a guy who looks like he has beer for lunch and owns stock in Hooters.

No.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Well, I guess we might as well start erasing Emmitt Smith's name out of all of the record books and casting Bush's bust for Canton. Obviously the Texans passed up the greatest RB of all time for the next Courtney Brown.

I like reading Pasquarelli's opinions, but this is nothing more than an op-ed piece and one that IS biased. There's no denying Pastabelly has allegiances, he doesn't hide them.Time will tell whether this was the wrong decision, but I find it utterly ridiculous for anyone to rail against this move as if they KNOW it's the wrong one.

Pick any NFL draft and look at the top few picks and tell me whether there's any true predictability. I have man-love for Reggie Bush and think he should've been the top pick, but I'm not myopic enough to think he's anymore of a lock to be special than Mario Williams.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

You can mark me down in the camp that fiqures passing on the over-hyped Bush was correct. I've seen nothing from him to make me think he is special. Granted he is quick and shifty, but so are a lot of third stringers in the NFL. I'm nt saying he won't be a better change of pace back than Tatum Bell, I think he will. I just don't see the next Gale Sayers. (He might be the next Clinton Portis with a little less power) I think he will have a real nice 6 or 7 year career if he does not get hurt. Given his size and frame I worry he may not be able to absorb the punishment.
