Almost six years to the day after radio host Rush Limbaugh resigned in disgrace from his brand-spanking new gig on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown for, as CNN reported at the time, “his statement that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed,” El Rushbo confirmed today that he's interested in buying the St. Louis Rams.

Seriously.

From confirms-ownership/5369091">KMOX News Radio in St. Louis:

Rush Limbaugh issues a statement confirming he's seeking to buy a stake in the St. Louis Rams.

Limbaugh is now responding to reports that he and Blues owner Dave Checketts are trying to buy the Rams:

“Dave and I are part of a bid to buy the Rams and we are continuing the process. But I can say no more because of a confidentiality clause in our agreement with Goldman Sachs. We cannot and will not talk about our partners. But if we prevail we will be the operators of the team.”

Marge Schott, eat your heart out.

UPDATE: This could get interesting. According to an OpenSecrets.org review of Federal campaign contributions between 1989-2009, the Rams are the bluest team in the NFL giving 98% of its contributions to Democrats. (H/T to S.L.)
