Rush Limbaugh learns there is no room for him as a team owner in the NFL

Mike Lupica
Sunday, October 18th 2009, 2:01 AM
Rush Limbaugh is always an advocate of a robust free-enterprise system, as it relates from health care to everything else. Only now he squeals because the same free-enterprise system rejects him as a possible owner of the St. Louis Rams football team.

You may have heard, Rush isn't taking this well at all, being told an exclusive private club of National Football League owners, along with Commissioner Roger Goodell, only want him as close to their sport as he is watching games with his NFL Sunday Ticket package.

So this must be a conspiracy. And an attack on conservatism, too, even though no one knew until now that comparing the behavior of the Chargers and Patriots one time to the Bloods and Crips was just another example of Rush being the acknowledged leader of the conservative movement in America.

President Obama is part of the conspiracy, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, the head of the NFL Players Association, DeMaurice Smith, a hateful media, and whomever stole the strawberries on Capt. Queeg in "The Caine Mutiny."

Why? Because the league couldn't possibly be telling him they don't want him, that's why.

Except that is exactly what is happening. It's not conservatism they're rejecting.

It's him.

Rush gets banged out of Dave Checketts' ownership group-and what did Checketts suppose was going to happen when he asked Limbaugh to get on board with him?-and immediately started screaming about the "race hustlers" like Sharpton and Jackson doing him in. No. He did himself in, with his own body of work. And, let's face it, Limbaugh calling anybody else a race hustler is pretty wonderful. You'd say this was an example of the pot calling the kettle black but, well, you know.

Sharpton in particular is a champion race hustler. So is Limbaugh. What he said about Donovan McNabb one time was just one small lyric in a song he's been singing for years, all the way to song parodies about "Barack the Magic Negro." But that was all right, that's what he told us, he was just looking for some laughs and, besides, it was just something he read in a Los Angeles Times headline.

Limbaugh says that the media has only gone after him this way because it hates him. But he's not important enough to hate.

There Limbaugh was on the "The Today Show" earlier this week talking about how his critics are just shooting "BB's at a battleship." Then he starts taking fire from all directions at even the notion that he could be a part-owner of the Rams, and gets hysterical. You dish the way Limbaugh does, you have to be able to take it better than this.

This is what they're doing to the country, folks! This is what is happening on Wall Street! Now it's happened to me! Limbaugh is never funny when he tries to be. But this week he was as funny as he's ever been.

The best idea of all here was that this is America, he's got the money, why shouldn't he be able to buy a seat at the table? Right. Rush should try that with Augusta National, where he likes to remind us he's played golf plenty of times. He's got the money. He likes golf. He should just show up at the front gate with a check and tell them he's ready to join, and where's the first tee. See how that works out for him.

Back when Martha Burk tried to force Augusta National's hand and get the club to admit a woman member, Limbaugh praised Hootie Johnson, then the chairman of the club, for not "caving" in. Right. A private club deciding who-and what-it wanted. The NFL basically did the same thing to him. Only now, because it's him, it's a vast left-wing conspiracy and a secret plot from the NFLPA because of an upcoming collective bargaining agreement.

The race hustlers, the lefties, they're behind this. Sportswriters, too. Yeah, owners in sports always do exactly what we tell them in the sports section.

Rush Limbaugh thinks he can say anything he wants to about anybody, black or white, and never have to face any consequences. Only this week there were consequences. Imagine something like that happening to a big powerful guy like him.

The NFL treated him like he was Rodney Dangerfield trying to join the club in "Caddyshack."

Harper,

Could you clarify which parts of the article you find to be untrue.

With all the rumors etc., I am curious how you see the facts.

Lets see; start with the fact that Rush said nothing racial, and no one can find proof that he did. Even rick sanchez of the commie news network could not find anything. In the McNabb case Rush was slamming the liboral press (lupica included.)

Accusers like Jerkson & sharpy, have no right to go after anyone. Their reputations make them less than credable. Sharpy is responsible for many deaths, and jerkson isn't far behind.

Then we come to the race card, If you take exception to what Milhouse is doing; your branded a racist. I know you liborals want to believe that Rush said these things: So bad that you can taste it (see dan blather, on GWB'S National Guard service.)

Next, see if jerkson or sharpy had the money, and wanted to buy any pro team: Who from the above would stop them?

Now, again please prove that Rush said any of the stuffed you accuse him of saying. Something more reputable than a internet paper that posts sharpy's race baiting. Remember even cnn had to recant!

Now could you prove your statements, of course leaving out you own personal opinions. I don't believe that anyone other than you mentioned Jackson or Sharpton. They didn't try to buy a team but as a deflection you brought them in to take the heat off Rushy Boy.

Sharpy and jerkson were at the for front calling for the NFL comish to refuse to let Rush in!

Is lupica your God, he just gives his own bias opinion.

No AS I said you could almost taste the idea that Rush said something racist.

And again I call on you to show this board unbias documentation that Rush said the things that you imagined he said.

Pemember even cnn recanted their acusations.

Harper,

For the record:

1)"I know you liberals......": I am NOT a "Liberal", never said I was, and, in fact have said AT LEAST 5 times "I am not a "Liberal", althought I may have have common beliefs with them, just as I have certain common beliefs with the Republicans/Conservatives
2) "Prove he said what you accused him of....." what have I said about Rush that he hasn't acknowledged HIMSELF?

PLEASE stop lumping me together with others....you may be surprised how my beliefs cross party lines....maybe a good read of my posts on the founding of America, democracy, abortion etc would interest you.

Just because a person supports some policies of a Democrat President, or opposes some of a Republican does NOT make him a registered Democrat, Liberal or Republican, Harper.

Folks, since you are, or were fellow Bronxites, I would think that you can all see through the scam that is being pepetrated against us all. There is no outrage about what Rush has stated instead it is n attack on free speech itself. If you don't toe the line like a good boy, "No soup for you". That's what the liberal, neo fascist, elitist, Obama-worshipping media is traying to teach those of us that have not completyely drank all our Koolaid. Turn off the TV, boycott the movies, boycott the sports franchises, and let the *******s see how we really feel. They say no new taxes but want to tax Coca Cola. They decriminalize everything short of 1st degree murder because the prisons are overcrowded but God help you if you point out the reason why. You're branded a racist even if your message is true.

Becareful Mr. Bronx. the liborals will brand you a racist. They believe only what they want to believe, and throw truth to the wind. They want to believe that Rush is a racist so bad that they can taste it. This is what they did with GWB's service record. CBS was forced to fire dan blather for making up false documents; but again they were forced to.

One last thing: liborals live by the credo; if you tell a lie often enough, it becomes the truth!

HAHAHA.....didn't GWB continually tell Americans about his PROOF that there were WMD we needed to destroy.

A perfect example of telling a lie long enough and many Americans began to believe him!!

Oh....I forgot, GWB was a REPUBLICAN/Conservative (?)

Thanks for the set up. Maybe it's "PRESIDENTS tell lies long enough......"

I will agree with that one...........

Mick Bush was hardly a Conservative. And concerning WMD's everyone thought Iraq had them; Kerry, Slick Willie, Dragon Lady, Tony Blair and others. And don't say that Bush misled them, as Slick Willie was making the claim when he was in office.

Now do you want to get back to how the liborals saw this as a way to get back at Rush. Damn the truth; full speed ahead!

As to being a liboral:

"If it quacks like a duck & walks like a duck..."
dan blather.

But lets say with the truth in that many thought this was pay back time on Rush.


Recession is when my neighbor loses his job, Depression is when I lose my job.

Recovery is when Milhouse loses his job.

Harper, are you aware of how many DIFFERENT varieties of ducks there are?

Labels are a simple way to deal with a MUCH MORE complex, or even subtle, situation. If you find it easier to label people, rather than asking them, or trying to understand their principles, and truly understand WHAT they stand for, please, by all means, suit yourself.

But that doesn't make you right.

Like I said last night, if you have followed ANY of my posts, you will see that I support certain Conservative, Liberal, Republican and Democratic principles, AND I am a registered voter, but not as ANY of the above. I am surprised you are not aware of the founding principles of certain of the other parties founded in the US in the past half century or so.

"A duck is not a duck is not a duck."

Moving along to other items of interest:

http://www.projectcensored.org/

Go to this website on decide for yourself if our government, Democrat or Republican, has anyone that still is ethical at any level in it. If some of these sztories are true we might as well hang it up because we have lost any chance of recovery either economic or social.
