Yes it is ... 06 Trailblazer LT

If you do any research the 05 and up have the BEST ratings. The 01 thru 04 got HORRIBLE reviews in consumer reports.

I know price is a benchmark sometimes ... but if you can afford it I would look at an 05 or 06. Leftover 06's should be going on clearance in the next few months as the 07's start rolling out.

As far as Bush goes it will have 0 effect on him.

Seriously, this is all Bush has to claim: I was trying to buy my parents a nice home based on my future earnings. Or they family can say that they were considering buying the home but decided against it after not being able to secure a loan. There are about 5 or 6 plausible ways to get out of this.

Plus, Yahoo Sports isn't the same as Sports Illustrated or ESPN knocking on your door, demanding to look at your finances. They may be on to something, but it'll be written off as Internet hype.

Frankly, I'm surprised that we haven't heard more about USC football players swimming in money. Outside of this and Matt Leinart supposedly having a Hummer last year, there's hasn't been anything suggested. Which probably means that the people involved are really good at keeping quiet.

The absolute worst thing that happens is USC losses some scholarships for a few years. I don't think it will ever come close to getting to the point where they make them forfeit games. Even if they did the only games that it would cost them would be this past years, so their National Titles aren't in jeopardy.

The only scandel IMO is this kid generating all this revenue and not getting paid a proper perdentage.

Bush is live on ESPN's NFL Draft special right now. Trey Wingo wasn't letting him slide much.

Mecca 04-24-2006 12:38 PM

Trey Wingo serious journalist..........ok I can't keep a straight face and say that. If they really think this is going to effect Bush at all in the draft they're stupid.

Wingo is entertaining. I really expected there to be some mandate telling interviewers to take soft punches at Bush. While Wingo didn't destroy him, he asked all the to-the-point questions.

And all the "experts" said it didn't matter what happened with this house deal, Bush will be the top pick on Saturday. Everyone except Michael Smith, that is.

This morning the PAC 10 said they were beginning a investigation. Doubtful that it would hurt Bush. But could have serious ramifications to USC. Like probation, forfeiture of games, Taking away their national championship ect. ROFL

Bigger than the MU scandal?

Bigger than ("it's no big deal") academic fraud?

You know when you cheat and your teams still suck, nobody cares.
But a big school like USC whos had sucess the past few years it's a big deal. :)

I also think Reggie Bush should be punished. The NFL should not allow him to be drafted higher than the 20 slot.
