THE FIVE BIGGEST CULRPITS IN THE DOWNFALL OF REGGIE BUSH

A. Isaac Senior Editor

Now that Reggie Bush can’t run from here to there without hurting himself, its time to take a look at some of the suspects in his downfall.

5. The ESPN/Youtube Hype Machine

We all saw clips of Reggie before he even played a down at USC. ESPN talked him up like Barry Sanders records were about to be obliterated. Too much pressure perhaps?

4. Kim Kardashian

Listen, if you had to deal with a chick with the brain the size of a bean but the butt the size of a beanstalk, you’d probably hurt a joint or two in the process as well.

3. Drafting Gurus, Mel Kiper

With his slicked back hair and penchant for pushing guys farther up the draft, Kiper and his ilk crowned Reggie the first pick the moment the man farted his junior year in college.

2. The NCAA Cover Jinx?

We all know of the Madden Jinx but is there one for the NCAA as well. Think about it, Reggie was fairly healthy until 2007 when he partially tore his PCL. And then this year, he has the MCL injury to go along with the devastating microfacture surgery.

Do we have a new jinx on our hand?

1. The Heisman Trophy

For every Eddie George, Ricky Williams, and Barry Sanders there are the Eric Crouch, Jason White, and Rashaan Salaams of the world. These days, winning the Heisman trophy just isn’t all its cracked up to be. I bet a lot of guys would forego that one night in New York for even one successful NFL season.

Isn’t that right Matt Leinart…..oooh, burn

What'd you think of this?
