What’s wrong with the likes of a Rush Limbaugh owning a NFL franchise?

Just when I thought you heard it all I read an article defending Rush Limbaugh to purchase the Rams. First, I must congratulate the people at player press for using it as a feature article, brilliant business move. You couldn’t have picked a better one to begin controversial chatter. That, I am assuming, is what it was all about. Like any controversial movie are book some things have arterial motives. You don’t have to believe or supports your ideas, just make it controversial, to create dialogue, to sell the product.

 

What’s wrong with the likes of a Rush Limbaugh owning a NFL franchise? We really don’t have the time to dive into that list. The major problem is the very audacity that anything is right about it.

 

I know that I am coming from a different angle that some reading this could never conceive other then from an outside observation. You also have to understand or realize that with all the divisive ideology, separate thinking, and less then intelligent commentary, we are still seeing the-in his mind anyway-politically correct Limbaugh. Imaging what he is saying to his inner circle.

 

The same mentality it requires to accept the sheer concept of Rush Limbaugh entering a league that has overcome many deep seeded mentalities, hardly needs to take a step back. So those who truly have deceived themselves into thinking that an extreme right winged self righteous idiot is harmless is not a new mind set.

 

That way of thinking is the same mental lack of balance that also thought slavery was fine and the American way, and that separate but “equal” really works. I was never naive enough to think that sports was somehow raciest free. Yet I am so grateful I was raised with morals, I would not vote for a Limbaugh owned franchise no more then for anyone who thinks it’s ok to insult any ethnic group.

Limbaugh’s interest in buying the Rams must bring good effect to the Team. The team has not making good performance this season. Well the St. Louis Rams are having a lousy season. They were humiliated with a shutout by the 49ers recently, and a week or two before that, they were also humiliated with a shutout by the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks are a lousy team, too – a moth flaps its wings in Tacoma and Hasselbeck is done for the season. If your team is so terrible you lose to Seattle, you're in trouble. At any rate, there are two prospective new buyers, Dave Checketts, and Rush Limbaugh. Limbaugh recently switched to generic instead of brand name Oxycodone and can afford it. Still, an NFL team, even the St. Louis Rams, is a big buy – they'll need some serious secured loans.
