Raiders Blog and Q&A: Bush gives fullback a try

blurb

Michael Bush is your backup fullback and he's not happy about it.

It was a topic he reluctantly discussed today.

"I kind of don't really want to talk about it or say nothing wrong," Bush waid.. But we did some (fullback) today. There's nothing I can do. I told (Tom Cable) no the first time, you know? I guess it's either I do something or I don't. I don't know. It is what it is. Do I like it? Do I want to play there? Do I think I'm a fullback? No."

Bush has been asked to play fullback more than once. It was first mentioned when Oren O'Neal was hurt in August. The talk picked up more when Justin Griffith went down for the season Oct. 26.

Bush said he's "Never had the kind of mentality to go run into a wall."

Nevertheless, he's going along with the plan.

At least he will be on the field. Hopefully the defense won't be looking for him to take FB carries and screens if cable actually uses him that way.

Hopefully this works out for bush and the team.

Bush stop being a female dog and go out there and be a fukin football player!

[Raider Ran]

Any way you can get him on the field should be a plus. With Fargas and McFadden healthy he would not see a lot of carries.

Hes not a Fullback, hes a RB lined up as a FB.

[gooftroop]

Omg Cable how much more can u bend to Al Davis, Kiffin didn't wanna line him up at FB but now he is being lined up there this is a Al Davis decision

Bush's attutude is the reason we are not winning. Your team needs you to play a role, and you say no. Playing FB does not make him an FB. It makes him a team player who is willing ot do what it takes to get on the field and help the team. I was a Bush fan, but he is quickly falling off my favorites list.

x2 bro!

I was at the game in Miami, and saw Fargas line up as FB for a couple snaps. That is what you call a "Team Player"

[RippinJCo24]

Hopefully he rips it up. Then we would just need an O-line and a couple WR's and our offense is set!!

[BlackOut]

What a crybaby. This guy has proven NOTHING in this league. By the way he's biching you'd think he was being asked to play left tackle. This is the type of player that succesful NFL organizations don't have on their rosters.

[johnny raider]

Hang in there M BUSH. We are rooting for you back here in "THE VILLE"

Thats exactly my point. They're trying to get him on the field and he's crying about it.

I would think a football player would want to be on the field.
