Probably never.
No NFL team and soon, no judgeship for your beady little eyes.
Rush, you have always bragged about having the most listeners ever but you underestimated that total. Many more may not have been daily listeners but thanks to Media Matters etc., your message was sent out over the internet, using your own words, which have also come home to roost.
The real world is now being introduced to the real racist, Mr. Rush Limbaugh, businessman.
Time to answer for your hatred. I will personally continue to write to Mr. Rooney, owner of the Steelers and Ambassadore to Ireland to use his position as another owner to keep your grubby little paws off and racist attitude out of the National Football league. You can only destroy it. You have nothing positive to bring to the league or America, if we shall be honest.
Why not start your own league? You can try to entice your dittoheads to tryout.
Congrats to the world for waking up and seeing what a phony, liar and hater this man happens to be.
If you think people are out to stop you, it is the first thing you have been right about in 10 years. YES WE CAN...jerk
Why the hell would you want someone who said that to be involved in any way with the ownership of an NFL team?
Thank you.
I say let him sink all his money into this team and watch it fail. I'm not a football fan, but THAT I would watch.
good luck...
But of course, Rooney is an obama appointee so how good can he be.
Rush the WANNABE OWNWER shall never get his dream. Unless of course Obama fails. Then he'll be happy.
Sorry FAIR...the mouthpiece and thinker of the Cons may get a job selling hots dogs at an NFL Stadium but he won't be owning it.
If he is the man he believes himself to be, he'll go right after those black players that "misunderstand" him. Anything less that that will be a sign of weakness. How can he lead anyone who talks about him like that?
Go get 'em Rush..show these athletes how tough you are. Don't backdown or have Hannity lead the way for you.
Let's consider the Rams your Nobel Prize, Rush. What have you done to earn it? You have money, big deal. This is a game played by men of all races and religions. if the NFL checks your background, they will surely find that you have insulted, berated and critized every race. You are an Equal Opportunity Hater. And then the can look at your bashing of women.
Hey, Rush, you said these things, be a man and own them.
Sweet dreams...there is probably some midget league team in Florida looking for a sponser to put on their jerseys.
He's a total wimp. He won't call out Mathias Kiwanuka, who with a sentence, kicked Limbaugh to the curb. Limbaugh will probably take it out on President Obama or Michael Steele.
oh, michael steele... that poor summa b****, he just cant catch a break.
The incredible thing about Rush is that you don't need a hidden camera to get his lunacy on tape..he does it willingly, for the right price.
Rush yo yo yo, you made your money by being you....now you are responsible for your words. I believe your whole anti-American movement insists on that.
HA HA HA....Rush yo yo yo.
Rush will be known for the nut he has become.
One thing for sure, Rush will convince his sheep that he is being picked on and they will defend their leader...while he sits back and laughs at them. What will you do?
Maybe the Jeff Christie thing will make the "drive-by media".
Of course, he would get tackled and roughed up plenty...all in good fun, like the Crips & Blood comment.
Signed your buddy
Glenn Beck
Nice strawman BTW...
And in either of those two cases, I don't understand why he would have any interest in owning a team. Surely he wouldn't think that he would be able to change either of those things. So otherwise, it pretty much sounds like when he sees black people tackling each other it reminds him of inner-city gangs.
Thoughts?
These players come from all walks of life but they are all dumb enough to get a tattoo that looks cool but has a hidden meaning that th majority of the public dose not see.
It was also blown way out of proportion.
So, maybe you are right...Nah, wrong as usual.
And isn't it a little TOO conveniant that he decides this AFTER a report comes out naming the Rams as the most LIBERAL football team in the NFL?
Now, if we could only do something about michael Vick as well...
If only some players threatend to do so - who will dare to try if they stick to their promise? The other owners sure wont...
