USC, Bush and the Heisman

Reggie Bush and His Heisman

Whoa. 

He....is.....giving....it....up.

I am impressed, Mr. Bush.  Does this mean you completely admit that you did wrong?  Or are you saving face?  Sometimes one is intertwined with the other. 

I am not here to beat down on Mr. Bush.  Reason:  this type of inappropriate behavior happens ALL over the college arena, not just USC in 2005.  That's right.  Happens even today.  I wouldn't be so very surprised if right now, while I speak there is an up and coming superstar driving a brand new vehicle that he did not purchase.  But was "gifted" to him from the college/new car lot down the road.  For him to "borrow" mind you.  Remember, just because it's getting the spotlight now does not mean it has stopped it didn't happen previously.  Gifting your gifted is what I call it.  USC can try to distance themselves all they want......Mr. Bush is not the first nor the last.  USC is not the only college to gift their gifted. 

They only got caught. 

Are they investigating the rest of the colleges for the same kickbacks and such?  Are they going to let these guys know that the reason why it's illegal in the first place?  Let me let you in on a little secret....it is because you are there for college and to learn first and then play sports.  The sports you play are called extracurricular for a reason.  No money or gifts involved.  Earn your grades proper, work hard, and then go pro.  Easy does it.  Well, for the ones who have their heart set in the right place anyways. 

To the companies/persons who are "gifting".  You should be ashamed of yourselves.  Trying to take advantage of someone who is in their still very vulnerable teenage years.  Your god only knows what you tell them.  May your god also have mercy on your lack "great things you did over your lifetime" list review when you expire.

By the way.......Does this mean that Mr. Bush will dodge the Heisman curse?
