December 29, 200817 yr Funny I just told a friend yesterday that didn't know much about him that he could be a great back in the NFL if he gets his chance. My hope was he would get out of Oakland and get a chance. Instead for the 1st time this year they gave him the ball against the Bucs. All he did was go out and run for 177 yds and 2 TD's!!!!!!!!! Congrats to the Louisville Male grad and one of the best high school players in the history of KY! I'm so excited for him!
December 29, 200817 yr He's looked very good this year when he actually gets the ball. It's kills me he plays for Oakland, they're the only team in the NFL I hate.
December 29, 200817 yr Maybe next year they will get rid of Fargas and go with a combo backfield of Bush and McFadden.
December 29, 200817 yr I watched the 4th quarter of the game yesterday, but random happenstance. Thankfully, it was the Michael Bush show! It was like watching him at UL, even when he was at Male! He was plowing through the defense, running around the ends. Their last drive he carried the ball all the way down the field only to be denied a TD at the goal line. But, they did tack on 3 there, so he got them where they needed to be. I was so excited! It's just great to watch someone you've watched for years have such a great game!
December 29, 200817 yr Bush had a couple good games early in the year too, when Fargas and RunDMC were out. I hope he gets out of Oakland. He has a chance to be a good player no matter where he is. He is a rare talent. It is amazing to see a man his size run past people like he does.
December 29, 200817 yr On http://www.nfl.com he's in the running for the FedEx Ground Player of the Week.
December 29, 200817 yr I wouldn't mind seeing him end up at Pittsburgh. I believe he may fit in well there. That is, assuming their OL woes are fixed.
December 29, 200817 yr Author He would be a GREAT fit in Pitt's. Jacks is losing Fred Taylor so that would be a good fit for him I think. Bengals I wish!

December 30, 200817 yr Author That's funny! Really I wish he hadn't done so well this week so Oakland might let him out of that mess. I liked the Raiders back in the Bo/Marcus Allen days but they are a JOKE now! I guess the Bengals are too but at least he would be an hour from his family/friends etc.

December 30, 200817 yr Author They all have their RB's though. I'd love to see him at Tenn or Indy but it's not going to happen I don't think. Him and Brohm at Green Bay in a few years would be cool!
December 30, 200817 yr I watched the whole game and thought Michael looked great. I was very happy for him. Remember, Mike told me once he is on BGP all the time so maybe just maybe he will see our well wishes.
