Excellent points.

The situation with Limbaugh tells me more about the NFL than anything else.

I'll be spending zero time in front of the TV for the NFL. Many other things to do with my time and money.

I don't remember Rush calling it that although he may have. Bill O’Reilly frequently calls it that.

With 75% black players and only being 12% of society - it is time to impose quota’s like they do on all other industries.

"So long as they aren’t conservatives. That is where the line must be drawn. I’m just wondering when they’ll start designating which seats and water fountains we’re allowed to use."

I see a good SNL skit in that.

These supposed quotes from Rush are very suspect. I would think they were like the other misrepresentations and false quotes from the Left: just a load of shovel ready crap.

I hope Rush takes these yahoos to court for defamation of character.

The basic reality is that there are four critical positions in NFL teams, i.e. owner, general manager, head coach, and personnel director. Any sort of a major problem at any of those positions, and nothing else you do can save you. The Washington Deadskins with the Snyder/Cerrato dynamic duo are an extreme example.

They went from this to this

Some stuff should be left hanging in the museum. Even when they were losing the Broncos looked good.

It’s just a thing with me. I used to be a Streisand fan, and loved to hear her sing. Can stomach listening to her now. Same with movies, and so-called “stars”.

The only way I would watch a team is if they spoke up against this blatant hypocrisy. Those on the left are spouting their lies, through ignorance or by design. Those who value truth should speak out too, imo.

It’s not as much about punishing them as it is that I can’t enjoy it for thinking about everything it represents if everyone remains silent and allows the Left to own the image presented by the league.

"Should I go on, or is that enough?"

Go ahead, it is all true. The racial grievance industry wants PC by Whites at all times and Rush does not play.

How many NFL employees are felons?? Read once that about 1/4 or all players have been arrested for felonies while in the NFL, National Felons’ League. After the bigoted display of racism the players have shown this week, Negro Felons’ League.

Not sure if Rush said this stuff or not but it doesn’t bother me...it’s the truth.

I haven’t watched NFL, NBA or Miami Hurricanes for 20 years almost now for the same reasons some on this thread are just discovering.

Am I post cultural or what?

The NFL doesn’t want an owner who was investigated for illegally obtaining, and then becoming addicted to, prescription painkillers.

STEAMING. "Investigated for" is not guilty of, first of all. And no NFL owner has ever had an addiction to anything??? I doubt that. I thought people fighting an addiction successfully were to be praised? The NFL dares to say that it is morally ABOVE sin???

If this is "protecting their product," I want nothing to do with the NFL for the rest of my life.

Just Google how many NFL players have been arrested in the last 5 years. That will keep you busy reading for a few days. Just a bunch of thugs and gangsters. The NFL does not deserve Rush.

I am very glad the NFL has NO current or former drug abusers on its teams. I glad none of the NFL players get involved in shoot outs, carry guns illegally, get drunk and kill people in car accidents.

Yes, it is a very clean product they are selling. That’s why I rarely watch NFL and NBA games on purpose.
