The Reggis Bush saga becomes more absurd, seemingly with every passing hour. Over at The Irish Trojan, both tracks are being followed: the potential of Bush's ineligibility affecting USC's 2004 BSC championship and the Houston Texans' astonishing decision to draft Mario Williams instead. Via IT, Chuck Klosterman of
ESPN.com's Page 2basically gives voice to my feelings
Obviously, this decision is wolf-face crazy. It’s the kind of decision you make when you are drunk, and on cocaine, and on deadline, and on fire. It’s going to define the future of the Houston franchise, and it will potentially wreck it (at least for a decade). … The Texans talked themselves into picking an inferior player; they created reasonable, intellectual reasons to make a terrible move. And I realize Houston needs help on defense, but remember — they had the first overall pick because they were the worst team in the league. They need everything. And while you can’t get everything at once, the closest singular equivalent is usually the single-best force. But they took the wrong guy.
I believe what I'm supposed to write now is . . . read the whole thing.
