Limbaugh ex might make airwaves at home

ESPN Radio's popular morning show Mike & Mike In The Morning scored big Wednesday when it ran an on-the-air auction to raise money for cancer research.

The big-ticket item: For a price, former Dolphins lineman Mike Golic and his obnoxious co-anchor, Mike Greenberg, would broadcast one morning this fall from someone's house.

The winning bid was $57,100. Sold, an ESPN spokesman told The Palm Beach Post, to one Marta Maranda from the Jupiter area....

Well that is interesting. I wonder what possibly possessed her to do that? Maybe she is going to go off on a rant?

[fightinbluhen51]

She didn’t go on the air with them. She didn’t want to apprently. She only wanted to just do a “good thing.” So, your guess is as good as mine.

[sinanju]

Undoubtedly there is a rea$on she has kept quiet about her marriage. Perhaps their agreement is about to sunset?

[Rebelbase]

I doubt she has much to rant about living in an $11 million dollar mansion in Jupiter.

[Biblebelter]

All of Rush’s money may not have been able to buy him love, but golly, it sure made certain that his exs lived well.

"I guarantee you we'll be looking for them," said island code enforcer Jeff Newell. "This is totally against our code of ordinances. They may be able to do it in a public space. But not in anyone's home."

Whoah! Glad I don't live there. Sounds like a concentration camp.

Rush used to say that Marta was a big football fan. She's probably a fan of the "Mike and Mike" show and just wanted to donate to a good cause.

[Paved Paradise]

Whatever was the reason for their divorce? I never heard anything. I only remember him talking lots and lots about Marta.

[ilgipper]

That’s crazy.

When I saw the winner’s name listed as Marta from Jupiter FL, my first thought was “is this was THE Marta of Rush Limbaugh fame.’ I figure only a small select # of people named Marta have $60,000 sitting around to send to charity. Sure enough, it is.

Punkin say Hi!

[capydick]

I wonder if she will use her code name Jaguar as her radio none de plume.

... New on this year's campaign trail: the politician who refuses free TV time. Congressional hopeful Allen West, a veteran who served in Afghanistan and is taking on incumbent Ron Klein, was invited on a news show the other night and nixed the appearance. Why? The former U.S. Army lieutenant colonel won't appear on the Arab network Al-Jazeera. "They wanted to pick him up in a car and take him somewhere for a live interview," said his campaign manager, Donna Brosemer. "There's no way I'll let him in a car with strangers from Al-Jazeera. Plus, how would we explain his appearance to Jewish voters?" ...
deeper in the Article....interesting.

That’s just crappy if you are going to deny a radio broadcast that was done for charity. That’s not just low class, that’s no class.

BTW, nice article you dimwitted writter, the Golic’s had a death in the family (Mike’s Wife’s Father), and WILL NOT be returning your phone calls. Why not call the ESPN network if you have a question that could be answered by Greenie, or by one of their staffers.

LAME STREAM MEDIA ARGH!

She can blow $60k on crap? How long were they married for?

[Tallguy]

That could easily have been a kidnap attempt. LCl West achieved a certain amount of notariety for his — ahem — interrogation techniques? Even if I’m wrong, you can bet an Al Jazeera ‘journalist’ would do his level-best to embarrass the good colonel.

[Tallguy]

Then an aerobics instructor in Jacksonville, Maranda started an Internet relationship with Limbaugh after he responded to a fawning message about his show. They were married 10 years before Limbaugh filed for divorce in Key West. Their settlement was sealed, but the usually private Maranda quickly bought properties throughout SoFla, to the tune of $13 million. I'm told she lives mostly in Jupiter Island.

[Vision]

That’s ridiculous.

[NoDRodee]

Was that Rush’s 1st 2nd or 3rd ex-wife?

[Vision]

His third.
