A Reggie Bush-league move all in the name of Louis Winthrope III

| |

100607_D0576b.jpgIt's the CBS Sunday night show sweeping the nation that isn't called "60 Minutes."

The next episode of "Same Name" (Channel 2, 9 p.m.) takes former USC Heisman Trophy winning tailback Reggie Bush, now with the Miami Dolphins, and has him trade places with Danville, Ill., farmer and high school football coach Reggie Bush.

Just like "Trading Places," without the Duke brothers, Eddie Murphy, or Jamie Lee Curtis dressed as a hooker.

When farmer Bush comes to L.A. to see how NFL Bush lives, he must be pinching himself. But, whether or not it's done for the TV cameras, farmer Bush will be supplimenting his time "working out" and "socializing" by refurbishing some low-income homes in Southern California.

"Ultimately" according to the CBS press release, "the Bush families discover their common ground, and the local high school football team is moved to tears when the football star gives back to the community."
