I'll bet anybody online with the money to be paid heads up that Bush will be offensive R.O.Y. next season. I'll let you pick two players and I'll take Bush. If I win you owe me a dime, if any of your two players win I'll pay you a dime. Funds to be held by a trusted 3rd party. So anybody else that wants to talk shit about Bush, bring it. Name someone in college right now that has the tools this kid has.
Please stop making that assinin challenge. He doesn't even have to be the best player to win that award. He will have a huge advantage in that he is a running back being drafted by the worst team. Not to mention he already is well known from playing at USC. Why don't you offer 3-1 or 4-1 vs any two players? Everybody knows running backs have the biggest immediate impact in the NFL on offense. He will also have an advantage by going to the worst team which will throw him in there often regardless of how well he blocks, catches, etc. Things that are important to the better teams.

L.T. will likely break Emmett's records and be the all-time leading rusher in the NFL, not the Pac-10. The next good defense Reggie Bush faces this yr will be the first. This might be the dumbest post in the history of this Rx. LT carries the ball 25+ times a game routinely and takes a pounding, something Bush has NEVER done.
quick guess who the only man ever to win both the heisman trophy and a super bowl MVP.
Desmond Howard. And truth be told he never got a chance to play. He only started 29 games in the NFL.
But the truth is you can't predict whos going to be great or not. Look at past drafts. every year there is a guy everyone knows is going to be good and turn out to be trash. Ryan Leaf, Brian Bosworth, Steve Emtman 1st pick, Kijana Carter 1st pick, Tim Couch, Akili Smith, Lawewnce Phillips, the list could go on forever. Then there guys that happen to slip to the 199th pick and then win 3 out of 4 super bowls like Tom Brady.
By the way B. Sanders is about the same size as bush is. Bush is a few inches taller but they are the same weight. And I have a hard time believing that he will be able to do all those moves he does in the NFL where linebackers run 4.4's because the only guy I've ever seen do it was Sanders. I'm not saying he won't be good but compairing him to B. Sanders and Gayle S. before he's even in the league is a bit much.

I would take your side of it as well. It is assinine because you are offering at pickem a bet that should be minimum +200 for any other two players. Your "challenge" is like saying. "USC IS SO GREAT, IF ANYONE DISAGREES YOU WILL BET THEM USC WINS THEIR BOWL GAME STRAIGHT UP!"
In other words tough talk, but not going out on a limb offering to bet anyonethat a big favorite at even money will win.
