Bush petitions to have No. 5

He aint gonna get it, that mental midget Brian Boswoth sued the NFL in an attempt to wear #44 as a linebacker. He argued that his marleting centered around that number from his collge days at Oklahoma. He lost and now is a draft failure footnote.

Bringing up the Boz in a thread about Reggie Bush... that's gotta be a good sign.

[Discrim]

heh, just have 50-79 as ineligible numbers and be done with it. then again, I recall my second to last high school game, the other team's fullback was wearing #54.

I don't think it's a good idea to make an exception for one guy. If you do that how many players are going to cry foul that they weren't allowed to do it. Just make Reggie Bush play by the same rules as everybody else.

In HS you can play in the backfield with an ineligible number but youre just an ineligible reciever in the backfield.

if the rule wasn't outdated the minute it was introduced, i'd agree with ya.

i dont think they should change a rule for this kid. and thats all he amounts to right now in the world of the Nfl at this moment. just some new kid, that hasnt even touched the ball once.

Exactly. Tell him to shut up and play and quit worrying about his Boz-esque marketing.
