[unlurking]

I wouldn't say he's ignorant, I'd say he's a shill who gets paid very well as a reverse lobbyist. He sells politicians and there platforms to the public, just like all the other political pundits out there on either side of the aisle.

The most ignorant man on the planet is the guy that wrote this about someone he has only heard on the radio.

Just think, you hate Limbaugh because he doesn't color politics the same color you would. If everyone were like you the world would go to shit.

Maybe, just maybe, he might be the best person on the planet to buy an NFL franchise. If you don't think he should be allowed to buy them, you foot the bill and buy them yourself.

Which is the exact reason nobody will ever buy the Chiefs.

It's 4am and you're probably high. Rush Limbaugh is a god damn American Icon. and we as Chiefs fans should be jealous of this possible action. He would turn that team around in 2 seasons and may paint American flags in the endzones.

Remember when Rush wanted to buy the Royals prior to David Glass buying the team. He was part of the ownership group with George Brett and the founder of Gateway Computers. George and Rush are best friends from when Rush used to work for the Royals in the '80's.

Incorrect. Rush says what Rush wants to say, and politicians either get on board or get thrown under the bus. Rush pushes the conservative ideology unflinchingly, and his entire objective is to get the whole world to think like he does. He will crap on Republicans as quickly as he will on Democrats, because it's all about conservatism to him.

The Royals would not suck today if MLB would have allowed that sale to go through.

[OnTheWarpath15]

FWIW, Limbaugh himself isn't looking to buy the Rams.

He's part of a group of investors, fronted by Blues Hockey owner Dave Checketts.

Checketts is hailed as hero in town for rebuilding the hockey team from the bottom up, and doing so with a focus on the fan experience.

My guess is that he'll be the de facto owner - I can't imagine someone like Limbaugh would have any control over decisions.

Good for STL and good for the Rams.

I listen to a lot of music and watch a lot of movies made by people who I don't agree with politically. Why does it matter what an NFL owners' politics are? To me, it's far more important that they're going to want to win and that they're going to want to keep the team from moving. I think Rush and his prospective partner fit both of those criteria.

BTW, fwiw, there are a lot of Republican sympathizers playing for these teams, both black and white. I hope you can deal with that.

[InChiefsHeaven]

Well, Moore is a huge anti-capitalist (though he knows how to make a buck or twenty so I'd imagine if he got into part ownership, he'd try to make money.) But, I don't know much about what kind of a football fan he is. I know Rush is very much into football.

Dunno, is Double Cheeseburger a football guy? Rush, much like most of us on this board, is a sports oriented kind of guy and at least knows enough of what he’s talking about to coherently discuss football.

[ChiefaRoo]

Rush Limbaugh > Jerry Jones - - - as an owner of an NFL team.

That is all.

[JD10367]

I think Rush would be a good owner. He's a New World Man, and he'd probably make sure the team operates as a Subdivision of his empire and probably wouldn't have much day-to-day interaction. He'd probably rather tool around in his Red Barchetta, knowing the team probably won't be viable on the field until 2112. I doubt he'd be a Fly By Night kind of owner.

He's a "fan" of the game. His time as owner may go over as well as Daniel Snyder's has for the Redskins.

That's a lot of damn money for any team if you ask me,but I remember Daniel Snyder paying 800 million for the Redskins several years ago!I may be wrong,which isn't unusual,but I thought I read something years ago that said the guys that owns the Giants paid 1500 dollars for the team.I think it was way,way back,but still just to think about spending almost a billion dollars on a football team is crazy!!!

That's definitely the only racist remark Rush has ever said.

As a young broadcaster in the 1970s, Limbaugh once told a black caller: "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back." A decade ago, after becoming nationally syndicated, he mused on the air: "Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"

In 1992, on his now-defunct TV show, Limbaugh expressed his ire when Spike Lee urged that black schoolchildren get off from school to see his film Malcolm X: "Spike, if you're going to do that, let's complete the education experience. You should tell them that they should loot the theater, and then blow it up on their way out."

In a similar vein, here is Limbaugh's mocking take on the NAACP, a group with a 90-year commitment to nonviolence: "The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."

When Carol Moseley-Braun (D-IL) was in the U.S. Senate, the first black woman ever elected to that body, Limbaugh would play the "Movin' On Up" theme song from TV's Jeffersons when he mentioned her. Limbaugh sometimes still uses mock dialect -- substituting "ax" for "ask"-- when discussing black leaders.

Don't you have to be racist to draw the conclusion that those statement's are racist? For example, how do you connect the "NAACP should have riot rehearsal" comment with racism?

I am not a fan of shock radio, but I have never heard Rush Limbaugh make a racist derogatory comment. I have heard his stupid analysis at times in which he believes blacks are led by the nose by crafty Democrats, and I have seen his quotes regarding McNabb and the area of Darfur.

But I have yet to see a comment in which I am led to believe he finds blacks to be lesser intellect or worth in anyway. He does believe others find blacks to be of lesser intellect and he attempts to spotlight that idea, but again, I haven't seen a hate filled remark from him regarding one's color yet. It may be there, but it hasn't been brought to light yet.

In fact, I find most that find Mr. Limbaugh distasteful have yet to listen to a single minute of his program. Those that I have spoke with find him disagreeable simply from word of mouth.

[RealSNR]

I stand corrected. I just read Snopes. Evidently, in the early 1970s he did say "take the bone out of your nose" when he could not understand a caller to a top 40 station. While it is documented in Newsweek, there is no current tape of the conversation. Snopes calls it "True" without verification.

That is the only comment that I can find directly related to disdain due to ones background.

[Terribilis]

some sweet quotes here

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rush_Limbaugh

[KCWolfman]

some sweet quotes here

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rush_Limbaugh

Each one (other than the bone comment) are easily explained or gauged as a perception of others regarding blacks, not his own feelings.

e.g. The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies

This statement was made when defense came up regarding the LA Riots and how the NAACP was going to create a fund to defend men such as the ones who brough solid concrete blocks down on the head of a white trucker pulled from his vehicle.

The Wanted poster statement was made at the same time the bone in the nose statement was made - undocumented but believed to be true. Since Limbaugh hasn't denied this one, I am inclined to believe the statement was made.... in 1973.

"The media is desirous to have a black QB do well." They were. That is not a hit against Limbaugh, but rather those politically correct idiots who demanded teams interview men of all race for coach positions. The same ones pimped Cunningham like crazy and then moved to McNabb. Both were okay, but neither as stellar as pimped to be.

Etc etc etc

I was supposed to be on them for up to three months. I can't even imagine how messed up I would be.

I was on them for month and had no problems in stopping taking them.

Thats the funny thing about the human body... every single one is different. It can depend on what part of your life you take them, what your percentage of body fat is, what your lean muscle mass is, etc.

I don't have any other addicitions.... well, do the Chiefs count? I mean, it has to be an addiction.... no one choooses this, right?

[Demonpenz]

Rush had one good hit with Tom Sawyer. How the hell do they have all this money

[patteeu]

I was on them for month and had no problems in stopping taking them.

I've been on them for 3 1/2 years and I could easily quit if I really wanted to. I lost my job, my wife left me, and the state took away my kids. By God, that's the last straw... if I have any more bad turns of luck in my life, I'm going to seriously think about quitting.

If Rush runs that team how he was trained under Mr. K, Rams should be in good shape. Dave Checketts has done an outstanding job with the Blues.

I'll ask you, since my point was widely ignored earlier.

What makes anyone think that:

a) Limbaugh would be the majority owner;

b) That 75% of current NFL owners would give him the votes he needs for approval?

If I read the Post-Dispatch right - Checketts is the main man on their group and Rush is one of the investors?

[OnTheWarpath15]

Yes.

So what do people do? Ignore that small fact, and go on acting as if he'll be the owner...

I realize that he is not the majority owner, but even if he were, YES the Owners would give him the votes.

#1) The owners aren't exactly democrats, I would assume.

#2) No such thing as bad publicity.

[ChiefsCountry]

Yes.

So what do people do? Ignore that small fact, and go on acting as if he'll be the owner...

Yes bc most people are fucking stupid.

[SDChiefs]

Yeah, but did the Royals do anything in the 80's?

Oh, wait. They won the World Series.

Just maybe it's time for Rush to buy the Chiefs.!!!!!!

I would stop, no questions asked, being a Chiefs fan.

[Radar Chief]

I would stop, no questions asked, being a Chiefs fan.

:shrug: If they could bring in a decent offensive line and quite wasting draft picks on defensive tackle busts the Chiefs could be owned by Al Qaida.

[Ugly Duck]

What's really sad is the fact that he can actually afford to do this. The most ignorant man on the planet makes enough money to own an NFL team.

Rush is the major stockholder of Snapple. I refuse to by Snapple.

[googlegoogle]

LOL at libs here for saying rush called blacks n****ers or said blacks suck at football.

Just shows how far these people will stoop to attack someone with their favorite attack - Racism!

What would your reasoning be?

Would you feel better if Michael Moore(on) owned the Chiefs? He would be more along the line of an acceptable owner because ???

Rush is the major stockholder of Snapple. I refuse to by Snapple.

He also has stock in Pepsi, Coke, and a few other commodities.
Oh, I forgot the biggie, he has stock in Anheuser Busch.

I never said he was racist. I said he was a drug addict who liked to fuck little boys. Let's not get this thing twisted.

I'll ask you, since my point was widely ignored earlier.

What makes anyone think that:

a) Limbaugh would be the majority owner;

b) That 75% of current NFL owners would give him the votes he needs for approval?

a) he issued a statement saying they would be the operators of the team


"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."

b) Good question and it is hard to tell but I know the clear majority of the players wouldn't want anything to do with the guy so this is going to be a hard sell for him

[Ugly Duck]

never mind

[patteeu]

I never said he was racist. I said he was a drug addict who liked to **** little boys. Let's not get this thing twisted.

He's admitted his drug addiction, but where'd you get the idea that he likes little boys?

[patteeu]

How would you know something like that? I bet you're making assumptions based on race, aren't you?

[Easy 6]

Limbaugh will blatantly lie to promote his agenda, cant stand him.

But i'd bet that 9 of 10 NFL owners are staunch Republicans who agree with a lot of what he says & its not stopping players on those teams from chasing their dream & collecting fat checks.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

He's admitted his drug addiction, but where'd you get the idea that he likes little boys?

It's just a wild internet rumor. I'm running with it. It's fun to rile up the huge supporters. I actually used to listen to the guy when I was a kid, but haven't in some time.

From Bad to Worse

<!-- begin blogger thumbs --> <!-- end blogger thumbs --> I thought it could not be worse for the St. Louis Rams than being 0-4; I was wrong. Yesterday I read Rush Limbaugh is joining St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts as part of a group bidding to purchase the Rams.

I'm not sure what's lower: Rush Limbaugh's approval rating in the African American community or JaMarcus Russel's passer rating. But in a league of professional athletes who are mostly African American and come from humble backgrounds, a Limbaugh-owned Rams team would neither elicit the warmest reception by the players in the locker room, nor would it attract the free agent who is weighing options on his NFL future.

Anyone who has made a living bashing political leaders and their policies by vicious and unethical personal attacks, accused actor Michael J Fox of "exaggerating the effects of Parkinson's disease," made racially-charged comments about Donovan McNabb's ability as a black quarterback and hypocritically called for harsher punishment for minorities charged with low level drug crimes while himself being criminally addicted to oxycontin for many years, does not represent the honor, integrity and dignity for which the NFL shield is supposed to represent.

Character is a constant point of emphasis for NFL and team officials when it comes to the players; potential owners should be held to the same level of scrutiny and accountability.

That's the critical point. It would do the foundering Rams franchise no favors.

[Brock]

Ha! Those players, african american or not, have more in common with Limbaugh than they do with just about anyone here.

[gblowfish]

One of my pal's in St. Louis sent me this from a Rams fan chat site. The Rams natives are restless:

With rumors circling that Rush Limbaugh and St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts are teaming up to purchase a majority stake of the St. Louis Rams, I thought we’d take a look at some changes Rush would make to the franchise.

10. The Rams will come out to Rush’s conservative talk radio theme song, The Pretenders’ “My City Was Gone.” The Pretenders will make sure PETA, Rush’s least favorite non-profit org, gets royalties every single time.

9. The team will never be allowed to run left — only right. Right, right, right. They’ll try and pound it into the opposition’s heads.

8. All players will wear a Ronald Reagan memorial patch every season, no exceptions. The team’s broadcasters will also be contractually bound to mention Reagan at least 137 times during each broadcast.

7. The pre-game patriotic singing of the “Star-Spangled Banner” will be replaced by “America the Beautiful,” except the song will be remixed into “America the Conservative.”

6. No black quarterbacks will be allowed on the Rams’ roster. That especially includes Donovan McNabb.

5. Republican Lynn Swann — probably the only black Republican in the country with legitimate NFL coaching credentials — will be made head coach. This will show the critics. Racist, schmacist.

4. Rush would offer the cross-state rival Chiefs a first-round pick to swap the teams colors — blue for red. No way a team of his is wearing blue, especially in a purple state.

3. Injured players will have a much easier time obtaining prescription pain pills.

2. Rush will sell the team within seven years, as that’s as long as any of his marriages have ever lasted.

1. Somebody other than he Rams will always be blamed by Rush for their losses, and any Super Bowl winner other than the Rams will be labeled “bad for America.”

[orange]

Ha! Those players, african american or not, have more in common with Limbaugh than they do with just about anyone here.

Yeah, I knew that, but I'd guess that there are way more female prostitutes in the Dominican Republic (where it's legal, btw) than male and many of them might even be 18 or older. Here's an interesting article (http://dr1.com/articles/prostitution.shtml) on Dominican prostitution.

Typically, the girl who works in these tourist areas as a prostitute is in her late teens or early twenties. She may be from the surrounding area or quite frequently she may have come from another part of the country. She may have previously worked as a prostitute in one of the brothels around the country that cater to Dominican men but came to realize that she could make more money from tourists. The majority of these women have one or more children by a Dominican male but the vast majority of the time, the father has abandoned the family and his fatherly duties and the woman is left the raise the children herself. Generally, this responsibility is handed over to the prostitutes’ mother. This cycle frequently repeats itself generation over generation.

[patteeu]

That is definitely part of it.

That's pretty much the definition of racism, you know?

The "little boys" part is just a symptom of the times. Look no further than ChiefsPlanet where every argument descends to gay sex insults. The country's obsessed.

[dirk digler]

LMAO
The opinions continue to roll in regarding the possibility that radio host Rush Limbaugh will soon own the St. Louis Rams.

Giants defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka says that he'd never play for a Limbaugh-owned team.

"All I know is from the last comment I heard, he said in [President] Obama's America, white kids are getting beat up on the bus while black kids are chanting 'right on,'" Kiwanuka said, per the New York Daily News. "I mean, I don't want anything to do with a team that he has any part of. He can do whatever he wants, it is a free country. But if it goes through, I can tell you where I am not going to play.

"I am not going to draw a conclusion from a person off of one comment, but when it is time after time after time and there's a consistent pattern of disrespect and just a complete misunderstanding of an entire culture that I am a part of, I can't respect him as a man," Kiwanuka added.

Earlier this week, Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb -- the player at the center of the controversy that ended Limbaugh's on-air role at ESPN after roughly a month -- made his own views known.

"If he's rewarded to buy them, congratulations to him," McNabb said, per the Daily News. "But I won't be in St. Louis anytime soon."

Jets linebacker Bart Scott echoed the sentiment. "I know I wouldn't want to play for him. He's a jerk. . . . What he said [about McNabb] was inappropriate and insensitive, totally off-base. He could offer me whatever he wanted, I wouldn't play for him. . . . I wouldn't play for Rush Limbaugh. My principles are greater and I can't be bought."

In our view, Limbaugh is smart enough to know that his interest in buying the Rams would create this kind of reaction. The only remaining questions, in our view, are whether he'll paint himself as a victim of bias and intolerance if his bid is withdrawn or rejected -- and whether he'll become a modern-day version of George Preston Marshall in reverse if Limbaugh lands the team.

The late Redskins owner had no black players because he resisted employing them (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1161018/index.htm); Limbaugh would potentially have no black players because they would refuse to work for him.

[ChiefsCountry]

Rush is judging Miss America now to.

[patteeu]

LMAO

There might well be some white morons who wouldn't play for him either, but that doesn't mean that all NFL players are morons.
