The Reggie Bush scandal

Yahoo Sports reports

SPRING VALLEY, Calif. – In this sprawling hilltop community with a breathtaking view of Sweetwater Lake, it was no secret who lived in the 3,000-square-foot house at the corner of Apple Street and Luther Avenue.

That home, residents would tell you, was where Reggie Bush's family lived.

That is, until this weekend, when the family abruptly packed up and vacated the residence – less than 24 hours after Yahoo! Sports approached Bush's mother about information linking the property to Michael Michaels, a man who is alleged to have tried to play a role in steering Bush toward an agent and who also has ties to a sports marketing company.


Okay, let's look at the real issue here. The sports agent's name referred to in this article was Michael Michaels. I mean, c'mon, how ridiculous is that! Michael is a great name, but could his parents do no better than to look beyond their own last name to come up with a name for their son? Were the parents simply too tired after the birthing process to spend any amount of time going through a list of names. There are books for that you know! Or maybe they liked the name of Michael so much they wanted it twice. I wonder what his middle name is?

You know... that's just California for you. I don't even bother questioning some of the people out there anymore. I just let them be. Lol!
