'''Reginald Alfred Bush II''' (born March 2, 1985 in [[San Diego, Ca]]) is an [[American football]] player who plays for the [[New Orleans Saints]] of the [[National Football League|NFL]]. He has played [[running back]]/[[tailback]], [[wide receiver]] and [[punt returner]]. Bush played [[college football]] at [[USC Trojans football|the University of Southern California]] from 2003-2005, including two [[NCAA Division I-A national football championship|National Championship seasons]]. He won numerous awards including the 2005 [[Heisman Trophy]].


'''''Lamentations''''' is [[Opeth]]'s first live [[DVD]], released under the [[Music For Nations]] label in 2004. This live recording at [[Shepherd's Bush Empire]] on Thursday 25 September, 2003 features Opeth playing the album ''[[Damnation (album)|Damnation]]'' in its entirety, followed by some of the band's songs from ''[[Blackwater Park]]'' and ''[[Deliverance (album)|Deliverance]]''. The DVD also includes a documentary on both the making of ''Damnation'' and ''Deliverance'', which has a running time of approximately 65 minutes. The documentary covers both albums because they were recorded at the same time. A CD version of the live recording was released in 2006 in a collector's edition slipcase.
==Early years==
Bush grew up in [[Spring Valley, California]], an [[unincorporated community]] in San Diego he often memorialized with "619", [[Area code 619|San Diego's area code]], or "S.E." (Southeast San Diego) written in silver on the black anti-glare tape under his eyes during USC games.<ref name="sed001">{{cite web |url=http://www.signonsandiego.com/sports/college_football/20060110-9999-1s8reggie.html|title="Greatness suits him - Trophy hopeful Bush from humble beginnings, tries to stay that way" from the San Diego Union-Tribune |date=2005-08-12 |accessdate=2007-09-27 }}</ref> Bush's father abandoned him when he was born and his whereabouts are currently unknown. His stepfather was a campus security officer at [[Samuel F. B. Morse High School]], and his mother was a deputy sheriff at the county jail.<ref name="sed001" /> In 8th grade, Bush played [[Pop Warner Little Scholars|Pop Warner]] for the Grossmont/La Mesa Warriors, where he brought them a "Q" Bowl victory against Los Toros. Bush's freshman year at [[Helix High School]], he came in at 5'9, 130 lbs. He ran a 4.6 forty and played running back for the JV team as a freshman. He attended [[Helix High School]] in [[La Mesa]], a suburb of San Diego, also with [[San Francisco 49ers]] quarterback [[Alex Smith]]. His tremendous 4.4 break-away speed and vision made him very successful at Helix. In a rivalry game against [[Granite Hills High School]], he sprained his ankle getting tackled. He went to the [[C.I.F.]] Championship at [[Qualcomm Stadium]], where then they played a tremendous football game against rival Oceanside Pirates, his senior year. Bush was named to the [[All-American]] team his senior year and participated in the 2003 [[U.S. Army All-American Bowl]].


The only song that was played from albums prior to ''[[Blackwater Park]]'' was "Demon of the Fall" (from the album ''[[My Arms, Your Hearse]]'') as an encore song. This song was not filmed for the DVD.<ref>[http://www.dprp.net/concrev/opeth3.htm DPRP Concert Reviews Archive]</ref> Licensing issues with previous record labels prevented this from happening at the time of the disc's release. Given that the band now has the backing of a larger record label, [[Roadrunner Records]], they have the ability to negotiate the inclusion of some of their older [[songs]] on future DVD releases (such as ''[[The Roundhouse Tapes]]'').
==College career==
Bush studied political science at [[University of Southern California|USC]].<ref name = FoxSportsprofile>{{cite web | title = Reggie Bush Draft Profile | url = http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/draft/prospect?contentId=5535266 | publisher = FoxSports.com | accessdate = 2006-07-21 }}</ref> Bush often etched the number "619" on top of his black under eye markings as a tribute to the area code of central [[San Diego]] city / South [[San Diego]] county.<ref name = Union-Tribune>{{cite news | title = Bush's conquest is no contest | last = Schrotenboer | first = Brent | url = http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20051211/news_7n11heisman.html | publisher = [[The San Diego Union-Tribune]] | date = [[2005-12-11]] | accessdate = 2006-07-21 }}</ref>


The recording is generally regarded as having exceptionally clear and beautiful sound and visual quality, although [[Allmusic]] reviewer John Serba complained of the ubiquity of shots from what he termed the "Akerfeldt 'Orifice Cam'", showing close-ups of the singer's mouth and nose in excruciating detail.<ref>[http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:st3zefqk3gf4 Opeth AllMusic.com Review]</ref>
Before attending Southern California, Bush was the most highly recruited running back out of high school. His and others expectations during his college career were very high. When head coach [[Pete Carroll]] recruited Bush for Southern California, he envisioned using Bush as a five-way threat. The freshman quickly proved he could carry, catch, throw and return the ball with great skill. In 2003, he was a consensus Freshman All-American first-team selection and became the first Trojan since [[Anthony Davis (running back)|Anthony Davis]] in 1974 to lead the Pac-10 Conference in kickoff returns. His 1,331 all-purpose yards set a USC freshman record. ESPN's Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year amassed 521 yards with three touchdowns on 90 carries that year.


== Contents ==
Despite not having started any games in 2004, Bush finished fifth in the voting for the [[Heisman Trophy]], was named the team's MVP, earned consensus [[2004 College Football All-America Team|All-American]] honors and was a finalist for the [[Walter Camp]] Player of the Year Award. He finished second on the team with 143 carries for 908 yards (6.3 avg) and six touchdowns, adding on 509 yards and seven scores on 43 receptions (11.8 avg). He returned 21 kickoffs for 537 yards (25.6 avg) and 24 punts for 376 yards (15.7 avg) and a pair of touchdowns. He became the first Trojan since [[Marcus Allen]] to lead the [[Pac-10]] in all-purpose yardage, totaling 2,330 yards. He also threw for one touchdown, tossing a 52-yard scoring strike.<ref name = FoxSportsprofile/>

== Trivia ==
Bush had a terrific 2005 season, as he was a unanimous [[2005 College Football All-America Team|All-American]] first-team pick and the winner of the Heisman Memorial Trophy. He was named the Associated Press 2005 Player of the Year, Pigskin Club of Washington D.C. Offensive Player of the Year, Touchdown Club of Columbus Player of the Year and was the recipient of the Walter Camp Player of the Year Award and [[Doak Walker Award]] (nation's best running back). He led the nation with an average of 222.3 all-purpose yards per game and finished fourth in the NCAA Division 1-A ranks with an average of 133.85 yards per game rushing. One memorable moment, known as the "Bush Push", occurred against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. USC would then go on, undefeated, into a final Rose Bowl game loss.<ref name = FoxSportsprofile />

He had 784 first-place votes while Texas quarterback Vince Young finished second with 79 first-place votes, with an overall edge in voting points of 2541 to Young's 1608. The 933 point margin-of-victory was the 17th highest of all time. Matt Leinart came in third with 18 first-place votes. Bush had the second most first-place votes in the history of Heisman voting at that time, only behind [[O.J.

He and teammate Matt Leinart became the first pair of Heisman Trophy winners to play together in a single game in the [[Rose Bowl Game|Rose Bowl]] on January 4, 2006 against the [[University of Texas at Austin|University of Texas]] [[Texas Longhorns|Longhorns]]. USC lost 41-38. Bush amassed a total of 279 all-purpose yards (82 rushing yards, 95 receiving yards, 102 kickoff return yards) and one touchdown scored, but he was overshadowed by his runner-up for the Heisman, Vince Young, and Bush's teammate [[LenDale White]], who led USC in rushing with 123 yards and 3 touchdowns. Bush also attempted to [[Lateral pass|lateral]] when he was tackled after a long run, but the lateral fell to the ground and was recovered by Texas. This game gave Bush a total of 2,890 all-purpose yards for the season.

On January 12, 2006, Bush elected to forgo his senior season at USC and declared himself eligible for the [[NFL Draft]]. Draft analysts predicted that he would be the first overall pick in the [[2006 NFL Draft]], held by the [[Houston Texans]]. However, in a surprising move on the night before the draft, the Texans signed [[Mario Williams]], a [[defensive end]] from [[North Carolina State]]. The New Orleans Saints then selected Bush as the number 2 overall pick in the draft.<ref>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/football/nfl/specials/draft/2006/04/28/texans.williams.ap/index.html?cnn=yes</ref> On January 3, 2007, Bush was 5th in the voting for [[Associated Press]] [[NFL]] [[NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Award|Offensive Rookie of the Year]].

On April 23, 2006, a report surfaced raising questions about whether Bush's family received gifts in violation of [[NCAA]] policies. The school has requested that the conference investigate the matter.

On April 26, 2006, three days prior to the 2006 Draft, he signed a multi-year endorsement with the athletic sportswear company [[Adidas]], where he will promote football and training clothes and launched cleats in 2007.<ref>{{cite news | url = http://www.tsn.ca/nfl/news_story.asp?ID=163971 | title = Reggie Bush signs deal with adidas | publisher = Associated Press | date = [[2006-04-26]] | accessdate = 2006-07-21 }}</ref>

On April 28, 2006, it was announced that Mario Williams signed a deal with the Houston Texans, meaning that Bush would not be the first draft pick.<ref>{{cite news | url = http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/HOU/9404220 | title = Texans ink DE Williams, to draft him No. 1 | publisher = NFL.com | date = [[2006-04-28]] | accessdate = 2006-07-21 }}</ref> Bush's representatives spoke that night with the [[New Orleans Saints]], who said they intended to use their second overall pick to select the [[University of Southern California|USC]] product.

Bush was indeed drafted by the Saints with the second overall pick in the 2006 NFL Draft. The Houston Texans' decision to not take Bush was derided by many sports analysts. At the time, ESPN commentator [[Len Pasquarelli]] claimed that Houston selecting Williams ahead of Bush was one of the biggest mistakes made in NFL Draft history.<ref>{{cite news | title = Snubbing Bush a Texans-size blunder | url = http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft06/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=2426087

===New Orleans Saints===
====2006 Season====
Bush's selection by the New Orleans Saints in the NFL draft generated excitement and celebration among New Orleans Saints fans. By the end of the week after the draft, [[Reebok]] reported receiving over 15,000 orders for Bush's Saints jersey, even though his jersey number with the Saints had not yet been determined.<ref>{{cite news | title = Football rookies make a big impact on fans | url = http://www.oxfordpress.com/news/content/shared/sports/stories/FBN_ROOKIE_JERSEYS_0518_COX.html | last = Halliburton | first = Suzanne | date = [[2006-05-18]] | accessdate = 2006-07-21 }}</ref> Bush had petitioned the NFL to wear number 5 on his jersey, which he has worn throughout his high school and college careers. However, in order for him to wear #5, the NFL would have to revise its numbering regulations, which require running backs to wear a number between 20 and 49. Bush was allowed to wear the number 5 during the Saints' mini-camp practices pending the NFL's ruling. On May 23, the NFL competition committee officially rejected his request, and on May 25, it was officially announced that Bush would be wearing number 25, acquired from Saints running back [[Fred McAfee]]. Although Bush had earlier pledged to donate a quarter of the money he receives from jersey sales to [[Hurricane Katrina]] victims if allowed to wear #5, he later said he would make that donation no matter what number he wears.<ref>{{cite news | title = Reggie Bush won't get his No. 5 this year | publisher = Associated Press | date = [[2006-05-23]] | accessdate = 2006-07-21 | url = http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=Ag3ykYuAhAY_z4WGvLaQDuhDubYF?slug=ap-saints-bush-number&prov=ap&type=lgns }}</ref> As part of the deal with McAfee to wear #25, Bush agreed to allocate half of that money to charities of McAfee's choosing. McAfee pledged to donate his share to Katrina victims in his home state of Mississippi.

Bush is second to [[Peyton Manning]] in the NFL in endorsement deals, amounting to roughly $5 million. He has signed contracts with [[Pepsi]], [[General Motors]], [[Adidas]] and [[Subway (restaurant)|Subway]] restaurants. Manning is worth $10 million.

Amazed by the warm reception he received from the fans in [[New Orleans]], as well as the magnitude of the devastation caused there by Hurricane Katrina, Bush expressed excitement about playing with the Saints and has pledged to help the city recover from the hurricane. On May 15, 2006, Bush donated $50,000 to help keep Holy Rosary High School, a local Catholic school for students with learning disabilities, from closing.<ref>http://www.nola.com/sports/t-p/index.ssf?/base/sports-23/1147672788244480.xml</ref> In training camp, Saints receiver [[Joe Horn]] dubbed him "Baby Matrix" because of his seemingly impossible evasive maneuvers (obviously comparing him to the movie [[The Matrix]], which features characters who move faster than humanly possible to dodge bullets).

Bush's rookie season had both ups and downs, although as the season wore on, he became more productive and integral to the Saints' surprising success. In the first game of Bush's NFL career, he amassed 141 total yards against the [[Cleveland Browns]]. He carried the ball fewer times than his counterpart [[Deuce McAllister]], putting off any speculation that he would immediately supplant McAllister as the starter in New Orleans. The Saints won the game by a score of 19-14. This effort lowered his league-worst rushing average among running backs to only 2.55 yards per carry. However, he finished the midway point of the season with 46 receptions, the most by any running back in the NFL. At only 6.8 yards per reception, Bush ranked 20th out of 29 qualified running backs in the league.

At the midway point of the season, Bush had yet to score a single touchdown either receiving or running the ball; however, on November 12, 2006, Bush rushed for his first touchdown from [[line of scrimmage|scrimmage]] on a reverse against the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]]. On December 3, Bush tied the Saints' single game touchdown record, held by Joe Horn, by scoring 4 touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers. He gained 168 all-purpose yards as he sparked the Saints to their 8th win of the season. On December 10, Bush scored a 62 yard touchdown against the [[Dallas Cowboys]] in Dallas, contributing to the Saints' 42-17 drubbing of the Cowboys in what was expected to be a more competitive match up that would be important to the playoff race. On December 24, Bush scored a 1 yard touchdown on a reverse against the [[New York Giants]]. Bush also had a career high 126 rushing yards on the day. On December 31, Bush scored a 1 yard touchdown against the [[Carolina Panthers]], but only carried the ball three times, even though backfield counterpart Deuce McAllister did not play. This was because the New Orleans Saints had already clinched the #2 NFC seed in the playoffs.

On January 13, in the NFC Divisional Playoff game, Bush ran for 52 yards on 12 carries and scored a touchdown and added 3 catches for 22 yards as New Orleans edged [[Philadelphia Eagles|Philadelphia]], 27-24 to earn its first NFC Championship Game appearance in the team's 40-year history. The game was also notable for the vicious hit that Bush absorbed from [[Sheldon Brown (football player)|Sheldon Brown]] while attempting to catch a swing pass on the Saints' first play of the game. On January 21, in the NFC Championship playoff game, Bush caught a pass on the 22 and ran 78 yards downfield (eluding the Chicago Bears safety) for an 88 yard touchdown thrown by [[Drew Brees]]. This comeback was the first score of the second half and closed the gap from 16-7 (in favor of Chicago) to 16-14.<ref>[http://test.denverpost.com/sports/ci_5059547 The Denver Post - Bush league move inflames Chicago]</ref><ref>[http://www.nypost.com/seven/01222007/sports/bush_league_sports_paul_schwartz.htm Bush League]</ref><ref>[http://www.dailysouthtown.com/sports/222974,221SPT5.article The SouthtownStar :: Sports]</ref>

Bush was fined by the [[NFL]] after the game for $5,000 for taunting: which consisted of wagging his finger at All-Pro linebacker [[Brian Urlacher]] and doing a somersault after the 88-yard reception score. Bush apologized immediately after the event.<ref>[http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-bushfined&prov=ap&type=lgns Yahoo! Sports - Sports News, Scores, Rumors, Fantasy Games, and more<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

====2007 Season====

In the season opener of the [[2007 NFL season|2007 season]], Bush and the Saints lost to the defending [[Super Bowl]] champion [[Indianapolis Colts]] 41-10. Bush was tied for a team-best 38 rushing yards on 12 carries. He also had seven yards on four receptions and a punt return for two yards in a disappointing opener for Bush and the Saints. The Saints following game was equally as disappointing as the Saints were beaten 31 to 14 by the [[Tampa Bay Buccaneers]] and Bush averaged only 2.7 yards per carry and 27 yards from scrimmage, over a third of which came on one play. Bush scored 2 rushing touchdowns, both 1-yard runs, in the Saints week 3 loss to the [[Tennessee Titans]]. In that game Bush carried 7 times for only 15 yards in gains while catching 6 passes for only 20 yards. Bush finished the season with just 6 total touchdowns and 581 yards rushing, averaging 3.6 yards per carry.

====2008 Season====

Bush and the [[New Orleans Saints]] faced the [[Tampa Bay Buccaneers]] to open the 2008 season. With Deuce McAlister out due to injury, Bush started the game for week 1. Bush ran 14 times for 51 yards and caught 8 passes for 112 yards which included a 42-yard catch-and-run out of the backfield for a diving touchdown.{{Fact|date=September 2008}} Bush showed great improvement early in the season, in particularly during week 3 against the [[Denver Broncos]] where he had 18 carries taken for 73 yards and 2 touchdowns, one touchdown that included a smooth run up the middle then to the outside for 23 yards. He added the second touchdown on a 6-yard swing pass from Drew Brees near the goal line. He ended the game with 11 receptions for 75 yards and one receiving touchdown. Since Bush came into the league, no running back has caught more passes out of the backfield than him, collecting 171 receptions in his first two years. On October 6, in a home game against the Vikings, he returned two punts for touchdowns, tying an NFL record for single game punt returns for touchdowns.

==Media career and personal life==
[[Image:Reggiebush ncaafball07.jpg|thumb|150px|thumb|Bush on the cover of NCAA Football 07]]
French mobile game publisher [[Gameloft]] announced on November 21 that it had signed Bush as its cover athlete for Reggie Bush Pro Football 2007, which was made available in January 2007 across multiple wireless carriers and cell phones. This marks the second cover endorsement for Bush, who the cover athlete of Electronic Arts' [[NCAA Football 07]]. Gameloft did not secure the NFL license for this mobile game, which means that actual team names, logos and NFLPA players (aside from Bush) will not be incorporated into the gameplay.

Lamentations is Opeth's first live DVD, released under the Music For Nations label in 2004. This live recording at Shepherd's Bush Empire on Thursday 25 September, 2003 features Opeth playing the album Damnation in its entirety, followed by some of the band's songs from Blackwater Park and Deliverance. The DVD also includes a documentary on both the making of Damnation and Deliverance, which has a running time of approximately 65 minutes. The documentary covers both albums because they were recorded at the same time. A CD version of the live recording was released in 2006 in a collector's edition slipcase.

The only song that was played from albums prior to Blackwater Park was "Demon of the Fall" (from the album My Arms, Your Hearse) as an encore song. This song was not filmed for the DVD.[1] Licensing issues with previous record labels prevented this from happening at the time of the disc's release. Given that the band now has the backing of a larger record label, Roadrunner Records, they have the ability to negotiate the inclusion of some of their older songs on future DVD releases (such as The Roundhouse Tapes).

The recording is generally regarded as having exceptionally clear and beautiful sound and visual quality, although Allmusic reviewer John Serba complained of the ubiquity of shots from what he termed the "Akerfeldt 'Orifice Cam'", showing close-ups of the singer's mouth and nose in excruciating detail.[2]
