Rush Limbaugh

[Glenn]

And I wouldn't sweat this too much if you are actually sympathetic to Limbaugh and his ability to be a part owner. If he really wants a piece of a team, I think all he has to to is buy into an existing ownership group, ala Marc Anthony, the Williams sisters, Gloria Estefan, etc.

My impression is that the problem he's having is being a part of a new group trying to acquire a team, and I would guess that he's subject to different approval/scrutiny than he would be if an existing owner just wanted to bring him in.

I'm not basing that on any detailed understanding of the situation, though, just speculating.

Considering the NFL is a league that spreads the wealth around (via revenue sharing), I wonder why Rush even inquired about the idea of buying a minority stake in the league...

I think this is the type of thing that happens to Rush. I'm not here to defend everything Rush said/says, but those comments don't match the accusation, imo anyway.

He has a widely publicized negative viewpoint on black QBs, which is why he couldn't even hold a MNF job. Why would they want him in as a partial owner?

I think what we’ve had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn’t deserve. The defense carried this team,” Limbaugh said at the time.

^I agree with that.

So I Google'd something along the lines of 'limbaugh mcnabb quote black' and one of the first sites gave me a fuckin virus. No shit... spent the last 3 hours getting rid of it. Porn? Cool. Limbaugh quotes? Fuckin virus. Kinda makes sense.


Anyway. Taken out of context and without what he said before that it seems pretty innocent, but I'll translate:

McNabb isn't as good as you think he is, because he is black. He is worse than his numbers and record indicate, because he is black.

If he had left the black part out, it would have been a simple statement about his team making him better. It wasn't about that though, not at all. It's because he is black.

Fatass Sharpton's racist and Fagbaugh isn't? You lick elephant ass no matter how dirty it is apparently. Sharpton is a low brow racial conflict exploitation opportunist, Limbaugh is a phony pill popping hate monger opportunist (racist would be a small part of what he is, he's actually something far dumber). Speaking as if either guy is rosy is retarded.
