NFL Quickly Discarding Limbaugh May Come Back To Haunt Them

Why does anyone give a sh#t about what Sharpton thinks? The man is a literal GD idiot!

Thinking you are going to appease Al Charlitan over a proven and *actually* powerful Rush, it borders on insanity.

NFL! Who do you think is going to win?

[Radix]

I going to the Patriots Titans game on Sunday.

I did not pay for the ticket.

Is that OK?

I like the NFL. I like it a lot.

I seriously doubt that FReepers are going to be winning Hearts & Minds by encouraging folks to boycott the NFL. That is seriously pissing against the wind.

Rush does not get to own a piece of the action. So what?

He don't care about that. He don't need it. He does however raise a lot of capital by getting shut out of this deal. Oh Yes. Yes indeed.

Limbaugh is more brilliant than folks seem to realize, even out here on FR.com

[JLS]

My view is the NFL should hire the employees that can perform the job best. I have no problem with Vick or any other player.

My problem is that the NFL led by Goodell said they don’t want people with views like mine around. I am always happy to leave where I am not wanted. I would think any conservative who is serious about being conservative would be happy to leave where they are not wanted.

[EDINVA]

They’ll never get another dime out of me, I know that much.

Dittos.

Every Christmas I buy my Packers fan son different team items. Not this year, or any year hereafter.

"virtually impossible if you own any form of cable/direct TV"

True, if you have a cable box they know what your watching. That's why I will not be watching this Sunday (not just talking about a boycott, but doing it). I'm sure it's going to kill me but I'm really tired of the BS and at this point it really isn't about Limbaugh, it's about me.

[WHBates]

If you really think this is about Limbaugh your missing the point, it’s really a much bigger issue. I’m not sure Limbaugh really even gets it.

[Paladin2]

FU NFL.

[2ndDivisionVet]

I’m not here to tell you what or what not to do with your time or money! That’s why we’re conservatives, we know that each individual makes those determinations!

[Perdogg]

I am gradually getting tired of the NFL. The 16 game season is long enough with all of the pregame hotair, bad announcers, and games that last til midnight east coast time.

[Colonel Kangaroo]

College basketball practice starts this week. A sport I find worth watching.

[budwiesest]

This act is on par with Michael Savage's being banned from the UK. It's pure liberalism striking out at conservatism and scoring a blow. Michael even predicted that this sort of crap would happen to others. And now it has. Rush wasn't banned from England but he's been banned from the NFL.

Both seem innocuous on the surface, but below, a sinister act is taking place. To borrow from the boxing world, there's a horseshoe in somebody's glove, and it ain't the conservative's.

Though the judges may score this as a hit, it's way below the belt and they know it. Anyone with a problem will have to drink beer with the President to get it resolved. Or not. "Screw you, we won."

[Radix]

"If you really think this is about Limbaugh your missing the point, it’s really a much bigger issue. I’m not sure Limbaugh really even gets it."

I just like watching the NFL. I especially like watching the Patriots.

Isn't this thread about Limbaugh and the NFL?

I like them both.

I think that you`re missing a fundamental point.

I like football because I played it myself, and I made a few great plays. My teams won games because of what I did. Me! I made great plays. ME! I did it.

Do you not understand that?

I think that Rush "gets it" more than most.

I wish that I could explain it better.

[ScottinVA]

Yep. It was just a waste of my time anyway. To hell with them. I hope Limbaugh sues the NFL and every media outlet that libeled and defamed him.

[TBP]

Inunddate Goodell, Checketts, and Irsay with letters explaining why you’re boycotting the NFL.

[VRWCTexan]

As others had noted - it’s a still free America - so far anyway, so enjoy while you can - likewise it’s not about “supporting” Rush

Maybe Rush just needs to torture some dogs. Then all will be forgiven.

The Race Card, Football and Me

My critics would have you believe no conservative meets NFL ‘standards.’

I have not payed much attention to the NFL since the greatest backfield ever, Bart Starr, Jimmy Taylor and Paul Hornung, left/retired from the Green Bay Packers.

[eyedigress]

And it certainly accomplished its goal, as Dave Checketts essentially had no choice but to drop Limbaugh from his group that is interested in the franchise, which he did last week.

I still think the UBS crap swept under the rug is still in play.

[Frantzie]

It is a thug league of criminals and reverse racists. Mindless entertainment with thugs. Enjoy it.
