That's what you get for making dumbass statements about black quarterbacks.

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

I heard that George "Moveon.org" Soros has been involved with Checketts too about possibly buying an NFL team.

Rush is the ugliest donkey in all the land.

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

Oh darn. I was hoping for a string of racist and elitist comments emanating from Rams ownership.

Ha, I am going to take that as you being sarcastic. Rush years of slamming unity and diversity is what did it. The McNabb comment was nothing compared to the things he has come out and said about American culture and history. You reap what you sow is no joke. Rush will never change, he is stuck in his own fat idiotic extremely right winged thinking. What I am shocked and find disturbing is the fact he has made enough money over the years to actually make a serious run to buying an NFL team. Seriously, that many people in America tune into him and make him this rich. Maybe he made a lot of money in stocks or something, if not I am disappointed because he the troll under the bridge to a unified future.

There IS a lot more to talk about Rush than just his comments on NFL players, I'll give yout hat

Well you have to draw the line somewhere. The McNabb comment is nothing. When you slam an American Hero and say the guy that killed him needs a medal of honor you need help.

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

Damn!
I was hoping Rush could join the secret society of Dan Snyder and Jerry Jones, known as the "Penteverate". They vacation tri-annually at a secret country mansion known as the "Meadows".
WHAT A GROUP THAT COULD HAVE BEEN...[B]Cerratto[/B] makes the drinks and gives Danny boy foot massages. Rush forges the scripts and brings the oxycontin and hydrocodone. Jerry provides the botox. Danny brings the consultant to teach him how to be a better GM. Tom Cruise brings R. Ron Hubbard.

Limbaugh wasn't interested so much as we was confused. He thought being a minority owner meant he could legally own a minority.

omg people are sooo fuckin stupid when it comes to the left and right side of politics. yeah i am a DIE HARD republican, but it doesnt mean i agree with everything rush or any other republican says. what ever happened to free speech for all? is AL sharpton racist? hell yeah he is. does he bother me? not at all. would i protest him trying to buy a pro sports team? no... i could give a rats ass, as long as someone has the money to pursue a dream/opportunity who am i to stop them? people should be more concerned about this current administration screwing up the foreseeable future

The last administration left this country in a god awful mess.

It is indisputable.

America voted and Republicans were told to go take a timeout in the corner.

Go back to your corner. Your timeout isn't over yet.

I don't think anyone was "protesting". More so talking about how ridiculous it is. I'm no fan of Republicans but I can careless if Rush bought a football team so long as it ain't the Skins. Let him have fun driving it into the ground.

Yeah and african americans aren't the only ones that commit crimes in the NFL. You would be amazed if you only knew. Just because they report on the more popular players than tend to be black. Doesn't mean that there aren't players of other races doing drugs, selling drugs, and beating their wives. The media loves to tear down african american players. Some of them deserve to be punished but they are often made an example of.

Was Al Sharpton trying to buy a team? Some people ae so racist and retarded (and dont even know it). A political affiliation should not be treated like your rooting for a sports team that has no affect on your life. This country was f'd before Obama took it over. You are probably one of the idiots that voted for Bush again after he stole the first election. You probably are a closet racist. Where have you been the past 8 yrs. I am gald the owners stood up and cancelled Rush. Its refreshing to see that people stand up for something besides making money. Unless they stood up because this could affect their money. Either way. Bye Rush. You fat pill-popping racist, gyrating bowl of rancid jelly!! Karma is a byotch!!

I don't think firstdown said anything about african-american or non african-american.

I'm glad that Rush is not part of the bidding team anymore. I suspect it's for reasons beyond his comments though

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

Rush is the man...have any of you bashing him, actually listened to him? He is far from racist...

Have any of you actually heard him ever say anything racist or are you just trusting what you hear from the media?

Why did you assume he was talking about black players?

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

[quote=maroonandblack30;608786]Why did you assume he was talking about black players?[/quote]

Which white NFL players have been involved in murders?

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

you guys should actually listen to rush, instead of just listening to the comments the media takes out of context.

No, you're right. I was thinking to myself that black players came to mind when I read, "involved in murders." I think it was implied, though it wasn't explicitly stated.

No biggie, I don't think first meant anything by it.

I have no problem with Rush owning an NFL team. That's his prerogative. But I also think that if a person has a perception of being racist, fair or not, chances are they have a history of saying or doing things that may warrant that label.

I will admit though there is a fine line between being inflamatory and being racist.

Yes, always a wise move to cater to Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

It's wise if they want their bid to be taken seriously, that's all I'm saying.

Excellent post. I have listened to him and even watched his TV show in the early 90s.

I have never heard a racist remark from him.

The media likes to twist what he says, piece together random remarks and even attribute when he is QUOTING OTHERS to him to make him "sound" racist so their immature insults have some validity to themselves...but he is one of the most generous and nonracist people alive.


Since I know someone will throw it out AGAIN, as ESPN has moronically been doing all week...look at the circus whenever a black QB goes to the Super Bowl. Doug Williams saw it, McNair saw it, McNabb saw it...so how can anyone paying attention disagree with the fact that the league and media does push for black QB to win. MLB does the same thing with their constantly-celebrated Latino nights at the ballpark, Spanish-adorned jerseys for teams in SF, Milwaukee, Florida and others...and even a Home Run Derby with players identified by their races/backgrounds. I, nor Rush, ever said the pro sports leagues and media are RACIST, but many things they do ARE RACIALLY-MOTIVATED.


It's a sad day in America when thugs like Sharpton and Jackson can make threats and get their way...and unfortunately it's becoming common-place. Limbaugh was just a man with self-made money that wants to bring a failing NFL franchise back to credibility because he's a fan of the game. For someone with those intentions to be denied because some true racists intimidate people, that's pathetic and incredibly close-minded.

Great reasoning and facts backing up your argument.

As usual, the liberals make their decisions based on emotion and force their way upon others.

That would require some actual open-minded thoughts and may even cause them to realize they may have been wrong...a risk most people do not like to take.

Besides, their Messiah hates him, so they feel they should too.

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

Before judging Rush's inapporiate statement, have you ever make inapporiate statements ?

It's not ok for Rush to be in NFL, but it's ok for dog killer(M.Vick) to be in NFL.

Redskins fans deserve to have 4-12 season.

Not sure how much reasoning or facts really is needed. Other owners have already said that their bid with Rush would face strong opposition. So it only makes sense if they want their bid to be taken seriously to drop Rush. What's so hard to understand about that?

Re: Sources: Checketts to drop Limbaugh
 

He's not racist. Not even close. Un politcally correct sure but he isn't racist. Just mentioning race within the context of a discussion about issues seems to get some people riled up and Rush that's what Rush does best. Get people riled up. He's done it long enough that his opponents have perpetuated the big lie scheme and now "he's racist". Just like Dubya is dumb. Or Clinton is a womanizer. All big lies. Most politicians aren't as evil or nefarious as their opponents would have everyone believe. Or more correctly they aren't anymore evil and nefarious as the guy or girl sitting in then cubical next to you. Rush is just a loud mouth.
