Am I the only one that thought Bush looked noticeably different in the preseason game the other night? In New Orleans he always looked tiny, almost out of place on the field. In Miami the other night he actually looked more like a typical running back size-wise, he didn't standout as an outlier at all.
Additionally, he ran very well between the tackles. I always said that Bush going to New Orleans was the worst thing that ever happened to him (unlike most people who thought it was the perfect fit) because he was put into a position where he was told that his role was to get to the outside, and he forced that. That's not how he was used at USC. He was a typical, between the tackles runner and being used like a "normal" running back is the best thing for him.

10 years ago, those of us on the Internet dominated the magazine crowd. Today, those of us on Twitter gain a marginal advantage on those who wait for FBG, rotoworld, etc. to give information. It's usually only a few hours to a few days but every advantage helps.
