They call me Mr. Dynamite. I blow things up in black and white. Do you remember Mr. Dynamite? He blew things up in black and white. -Iggy Pop
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Little Reggie Golden Shoes. He’s all growns up and he’s all growns up and he’s growns up. You can say he’s not a feature back. You can say you don’t think he was worthy to be a top pick in the NFL Draft. You can do whatever you want. But know this. Reggie Bush is a football player. A very special football player.
When Bear Bryant was coaching the Alabama Crimson Tide, good ‘ole Bear brought a young USC fullback, Sam Bam Cunningham, into the Tide locker room. Bear Bryant brought Sam into the lily-white Alabama locker room after he ran roughshod all up and down Denny Field. Legend has it, Sam Cunningham did more to integrate Alabama in sixty minutes that day, than Martin Luther King was able to do in twenty years. Legend has it, in that locker room, Coach Bear Bryant said to his team of Mr. Cunningham, “This is what a football player looks like.” Reggie Bush may not have done much for civil rights in this country, but he is indeed what a football player looks like.
Reggie Bush looked like football player yesterday. Has all year. Caught his 200th pass yesterday. No other running back has ever had 200 career catches in his first thirty-four games. Not Keith Byars. Not Larry Centers. Not Marshall Faulk. Not anyone. Not ever. Reggie Bush caught his 200th career pass in what has become for him, just another day at the rock quarry. Just another seventy-five all-purpose yard day, bringing two to the hizzy, as the New Orleans Saints hammered the Oakland Raiders in the Superdome. Bush: “I expect to make plays when I get a chance. So, as long as those opportunities keep coming, I’m going to continue to make plays.” That’s what a football looks like. Yabba Dabba Doo!
