Rush Limbaugh, the man who got fired from ESPN for, let's face it, being a racist, now wants so buy the St. Louis Rams. I feel bad for the coach because his defensive schemes helped my NY Giants upset Tom Brady and the Patriots in the 2007 Super Bowl. Steve Spagnuolo now has to rebuild a horrible team and if Rush gets in there then he'll probably have to make sure he NEVER uses a black quarterback.

And Limbaugh never disappoints in being a blathering buffoon by saying this about the NBA:

LIMBAUGH: It's not reasonable that you should understand the insanity that local and state and federal bureaucracies are doing. It's perfectly normal and understandable that none of what they do would make sense to you. My question -- OK, a 1 cent sales tax to fight gang violence. What do you spend the money on to fight gang violence? Afterschool program -- don't we already have afterschool programs? Don't we already have -- what do you call it, extracurricular events? Midnight basketball -- I mean, we've done it all. We've taken the favorite sport of gangs, and we put it at midnight to get them on the basketball court. We had 100,000 new cops with Clinton -- we've done it all. And the problem still is out of control. Liberalism doesn't work.

Dead Spin sez:

Much like softball is the favorite sport of lesbians and soccer the preferred choice for illegal immigrants, radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh declares basketball "the favorite sport of gangs." I thought it was dominoes?

Use to enjoy playing but never cared for watching. Never understood why people would pay money to watch men play childrens games.
I think limbaugh should buy a team and show everyone how bad he could screw it up. Marge Shotz he is not. lol

I always thought their favorite sport was "tag."

Rush has never been to Salinas, California because had he been there he would know that gang violence is not um....basketball fans but more like um.....soccer fans. See what I'm saying? He mixed up his racist shit.

Salinas is in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley. Most workers are immigrant, migrant workers of the crops. The very people Sean Hannity was so bravely trying to save last week.

For those of you who would rather believe that Limbaugh is a racist than the NBA is full of thugs, you might want to read "Out of Bounds" by Jeff Benedict. Arrest records and convictions are a matter of public record and tell the story in great detail.

I wonder, just wonder, if Donovan McNabb is released by the Eagles, would he sign the "overhyped" QB for the Rams?

Just to jog your memories, the reason Rush Limpbaugh was fired by ESPN was because of his erroneous and racist theory that McNabb was being "hyped" by the media because they wanted a BLACK HERO for QB. Of course, this was like 20 years after Doug Williams won Superbowl MVP and Warren Moon broke most WHITE qb's throwing records. So he's racist AND ill-informed!

Are you kidding?

In two years, they'd have an all-white team with a 0-16 record, and Kurt Warner still hoping to make a comeback.

for Kurt to fall back on if the Rams don't work out?

No wonder them conservatards have so many "best-sellers." Just like Coulter and the rest, they give their shit away for free, or a $1 donation to some rightwing psycho, wacko, nutjob website.

Anybody who is rich could be a best selling author if they took the republinazi approach to publishing. Write a piece of crap, filled with inane bullshit and fact-free rants, then purchase 300,000 copies of your own piece of shit, and wallah, you are a best selling conservatard author! Why, because the american people love reading about conservatism. Just use your "best-seller" status to prove it.

Is there any stone these cock roaches haven't overturned in their quest to outdo Goebels?


Rush Limbaugh is what a smart person thinks a stupid bigot sounds like.

Exactly how all those books become best sellers. Bought in bulk and given away for "free" with a small donation. You can get Glenn Beck's latest screed free on Town Hall. More free kindling.

What a piece of offal. Why doesn't he just choke on his own bile and get it over with?

He's obviously a repressed self-hating pervert with a simmering rage toward everybody -- women, racial minorities, the poor, etc. etc. He didn't get a date for the prom, and he didn't get chosen for the kickball team. He's never let society forget it.

Truly a horrible person.

If he does buy the Rams -- the team I rooted for as a kid growing up in L.A. in the '60s -- then I'll wish for them to lose every time they step onto the field. They'll be the St. Louis Pigboys.

LA Rams playing Seattle in the Seahawks first season at LA Coliseum. But if Pigboy buys the team, I will save money to travel to games just to root for them to lose. Plus, bring offensive banners and illegal T-shirts to sell in the parking lot.

Rush just wants a reason to hang out in the locker room... when the boys are coming outta the shower... so's he can "admire their physiques"...

Seriously... I've always felt Rush slipped one past everybody on the McNabb nonsense.

Did you actually see Rush on MNF? You had to look quickly, because he was gone so fast. But, boy, did he ever look uncomfortable and out of place, and the other sports people in the booth looked like they couldn't begin to imagine why "El Rushbo" was there.

I think Rush knew he was totally out of his depth on MNF and realized how embarrassing it would be to get canned for that reason, so he latched on to McNabb to create a false controversy/smokescreen. Rush was going to be gone no matter what, and he was just trying to save face.

If McNabb had just laughed at it...

I know the corporate fascist's pay this useless sick bastard lots of money to spew their message of greed and hate; but don't you need to be a billionaire to own a football team in this day and age?

I know doughy pantload makes a dispicable amount of money for doing nothing of value, but he doesn't make that much money.


Rush Limbaugh is what a smart person thinks a stupid bigot sounds like.

In addition there are character issues relating to what's good for the league that would be taken into account . With baggage as enormous as his cyst infested ass, this racist cancer simply has no chance.

Limbaugh owning a football team would make Jerry Jones look good. Or perhaps make Al Davis look like a saint. KA-razy.

Seems I heard recently (I think on Rachel Maddow) that the Rams organization is a liberal outlier in stats about political contributions from the NFL. I just did a quick look.

http://www.opensecrets.org/news/2009/09/polit...

It's easy for me to imagine that Limbaugh could be motivated, at least in part, by his desire to turn that stat around.

I read that report. As I mentioned already, Rush would probably be a lot happier buying part of another NFL team, like, say, the Chargers. $2 million in political contributions, almost entirely to Republicans.

Old Billy's picture

That's a crazy report. I'm glad to see my Lions are on the right side of that split.

Funny, not only are the St. Louis Rams big Democratic donors, but so are the LA Rams.

...is what one guy said to another guy as they walked away....
from trying to protect the very last tree from being cut down on Easter Island.

As someone who is a fan of the NBA, specifically, the San Antonio Spurs, I found this comment extremely offensive. And, FYI, I live in New Jersey so don't think I'm some hayseed. That said, I wonder what Michael Jordan thinks of this. While I'm sure he won't comment at all, his buddy Charles Barkley will not likely be silent. I also remember that when the NBA All Star Game was played it Vegas a couple of years ago, it was a football player who make instigated a fight at a club after the game. I think it was Pacman Jones who threw money into the air saying he'd make it rain. A guy was killed. I'm not really a football fan but, they have more law breakers than any other sport. In fact, I refer to the NFL as the National Felon League. They're also the league that OJ Simpson was a member of and HE'S A MURDERER! There's also Ray Caruth who had his pregnant girlfriend murdered and Michael Vick. I also remember the player from the Ravens who was involved in a murder so when Limpballs says that the NBA is favored by gangs, he might want to retract that statement. I'm sure there are others. I just can't think of them right now but, I'm sure many of you could.

vkobaya's picture

Yeah, but the point Limbaugh is making is racist, that is the perception that basketball is a "Negro" sport.

it is only white Americans who have trouble playing.

I would rather start pulling for the 49'ers or even the Chiefs than see Comedian own a piece of the Rams.

I read a report recently about NFL teams and their contributions to political parties. Rush would blow a gasket to know that the team that contributed the most to Democrats is... the Rams. Comedian would be purchasing a piece of the NFL's most politically liberal franchise! If he wanted to buy into a team more ideologically in line with himself, he'd better consider buying part of the San Diego Chargers, THE most Republican team in the NFL.

In my opinion, Comedian forever screwed himself out of any NFL involvement with his comments about Donovan McNabb. Yes, that includes ownership - and the NFL bylaws states that Comedian and his group would need 24 out of 32 owners to vote "yes" in order for him to get that piece of the team.

Lastly, I should mention that there are a reported six groups interested in buying the Rams. Hopefully, one of the non-Rush groups will buy the team and keep them in St. Louis (even though the Rush group has stated that they'd stay in St. Louis - that group is actually headed by the guy who owns the Blues hockey team).

I hope it's not Dave Checkettes. This tool took over the Knicks a few years back and that didn't turn out too well. Rush now refers to the National Organizaion for Women as Feminazis. That should go over real well with ANY MAN WHO HAS A WIFE OR GIRLFRIEND! Good luck with that you fat, sweaty, smelly, sloppy, piece of toe jam!

fil hussein oaks's picture

that ownership of the rams could possibly sink any lower than Georgia Front-and reary (she was reported to have enjoyed hot tub frolicking with the players)?

Georgia Frontiere (born Violet Frances Irwin) (November 21, 1927 – January 18, 2008), sometimes referred to as Madame Ram, was the co-owner and chairwoman of the St. Louis Rams from 1979 to 2008
Frontiere inherited ownership of the team, then based in Anaheim, California, in 1979 after the death of her husband. Rosenbloom, an avid ocean swimmer, died mysteriously in the Atlantic.[2] Although no evidence of foul play was uncovered it is rumored that Rosenbloom, a high-stakes gambler, was killed over failure to repay debts.

and the only owner to bring the Lombardi Trophy to the team.

Imagine a world without minute-by-minute commercial intrusion. Rushbo buys a team, just let the cable company know why you're cutting the cord.

You folks do know pro wrestling is rigged, dontcha?

..."c".

The NFL is nearly 70% black, and football is a game that requires 100% emotional effort. What black player would risk a career threatening injury for this grotesque bigot? Players agents would use the race card and demand extra money to play for this pig...then quit on him once they got their cash. The rams would instantly be the league most hated organization. Risking enormous backlash, the other owners would never allow this monster and his 1920's mindset, to jump on board their money trains.The NFL will drop kick this criminal racist just like ESPN did.

Besides having an obvious plantation owner mentality message to his racist followers("I own all of those colored boys!"), why is it that a devout racist like Rush can't keep his lumpy ass away from us black folk?

Jerry Jones would no longer be my least favorite NFL owner. Limbaugh would fit right in with St. Louis. Anyone who has driven through Missouri knows their radio stations are saturated with right wing zealots.

I'd have a new team to root against even more than the Cowboys and Seahawks.

Of course, I could only imagine what having him as an owner would be like for the league. I bet they are not in favor of this idea.

Old Billy's picture

I can understand hating the Cowboys, but how can you generate hatred against the hapless Seahawks?

Freddy Knuckles's picture

more than the team. There's a very long story behind it.

Limbaugh would not have any control of the team, he would just be a minority co-owner of a group led by Dave Checketts. I doubt if anyone would see the fat tard in the stadium.


'We, the People'............rimshot................hahahahahaha!

Old Billy's picture

I listened to that whole clip and Limbaugh didn't even start to make sense. "What would you spend that sales tax on to stop gang violence?"

Oh, I don't know, maybe schools or cops or economic development or childcare or public beautification or public service announcements or libraries or parks or anything really. Just trying would be a great start.

And "liberalism doesn't work"? What the fuck is "liberalism" and what does it have to do with gang violence?

would vote to allow him to buy the Rams. But hey, if he wants to spend his ill gotten money on an endeavor that would actually entertain the common man, I say let him buy the team.

But the next thing that I would love to see him deal with is the players UNION. Now THAT would be a HOOT!


Only when the last tree has died
and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught
will we realize we cannot eat money.

My goodness, why would anyone seize this particular moment in time to invest serious money in a professional football team when we're on the verge of being turned into a "Socialist, Communist, Nazi dictatorship where the government will tell us what to eat, what to drive, when to sleep, where to work and how to live our lives!"?

Does Rush assume the "evil government dictatorship" of the Democrat' Party and Barack Hussein Obama mmm mmm mmm is going to require everyone to watch football games in the bleak futureworld he's been selling his listeners for the past 9 months?

This just proves that Rush makes way too much money.

Isn't it interesting how this cockbite is interested so much in the NFL, which is one of, if not the most "socialist" of all the major sports teams? Revenue sharing is free market? Salary cap is free market? I thought socialism was bad?

Oh, wait, this socialism guarantees him money. Move along, nothing to see here.

Is Rush Limbaugh not the biggest sack of excrement this society has ever produced? Seriously, what does it say about the kind of people who listen to this jerk? What is he really so angry about? This guy makes millions conning the ignorant, and he's still an angry pompous jack ass.

Rush is a racist, bigoted, ignorant piece of %$#@. As with most far right idiots, it all about them. You can put pigboy and Glenn Beck, Bill OReily, and Sean Hanity in a boat down a raging river in a canoe without a paddle. I'd love to see the outcome. The country does not need idiots such as these, to be allowed to distort the truth and support racism. We need to rally around the president and give the man a chance to fix all the screw-ups from the past 8 years. As for this article, the sad part is that Rush now has enough money from lying and distorting the truth to buy an NFL team. How sad.

First, McNabb is still overrated. Yes, he's in the upper half of NFL QBs. He's better than Rex Grossman or Kyle Orton, despite a 4-0 start in Denver. McNabb isn't as good as Tom Brady, Brett Favre, or Ben Roethlisberger, but I would take McNabb over Tony Romo.

Second, basketball has become a thug sport. My father-in-law was a basketball coach at the YMCA years ago. The kind of play that is typical of the NBA would have gotten a kid fouled out before the end of the first half in the YMCA. It's not the game that I played in P.E., where any touching was a foul, and traveling was called very closely.

Third, the fact that a person opposes affirmative action or quotas doesn't make him a racist. As the parent of a white boy, I don't want him failing to get into my alma mater, becasue minority kids with lower SATs and GPAs get admitted in the name of affirmative action and diversity.

On the other hand, I was once walking across the parking lot of an outlet mall near Atlanta in 1994 with my girlfriend and her mother. My girlfriend and I were visiting from Chicago, and her parents had moved a few months earlier from Ohio.

A black family stopped and let us cross their path in front of them. It dawned on me about 30 second later what happened. I couldn't believe it. Even though Andrew Young and Maynard Jackson had both served as Mayor of Atlanta, here were blacks in northeast Georgia still behaving as if they were second-class citizens.

Now, if a white person thinks what happened in the parking lot was perfectly acceptable for the last decade of the 20th Century, he is a racist. I've listened to Rush enough to know that he would be just as shocked as I was, if he was in the same situation.
