In a recent interview with ESPN's Colleen Dominguez, Reggie Bush blamed the turf at the Superdome for his injury struggles with the Saints.
"There's a big difference between playing on grass, and then you play on FieldTurf," Bush said.
Some quick fact checking on Twitter by Larry Holder, Jeff Duncan and Ricky Prado brings us Bush's injury history.
2007: vs Tampa in the Superdome
2008: at Carolina, and again at Chicago
2009: at St. Louis
2010: at San Francisco, and again at Seattle
Totals: 6 injuries, 3 on turf, 3 on grass. Only one in the Superdome.
Interview is here I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet but people are arguing that Bush didn't specify the Superdome turf in his complaint. Of course that doesn't matter much because 1) his injury history is evenly divided between turf and grass 2) either way the implication is that he doesn't want to play all of his home games on turf.
