We need to beat them senseless with this sort of bs.

"Divisive comments are not precisely what the the NFL is all about"

[Catholic Canadian]

Well, as long as they have former meth heads who pee themselves, they’re covered I suppose.

Boytcott the NFL and tell them why.

I think Roger Goodell is still upset that those mean old Conservatives ran someone against his daddy and took away his Senate seat, so he’s going to show those meanies who’s boss by punishing us through Rush.

And this liberal baby’s wife works for Fox News!

The Irsays are the ones who stole the Colts from Baltimreo in the middle of the night. They are people to be despised.

Boycott the NFL!

Maybe Rush’s friends should start a new league.

A diversity of racism is the horse they are riding. Good luck with that. I hope it hangs them and brings them down just as it has done for the newpapers and networks.

"I, myself, couldn't even consider voting for him," said Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay of accused thought criminal Rush Limbaugh. "As a nation, and as a world, we've got to watch our words and our thoughts."

Wow. Apparently Jim Irsay has no regard for free speech or diversity of thought and expression. No, we as a nation do not have to watch our words and our thoughts - we don't live in East Germany and there is no Stasi waiting to punish us for daring to think or speak in a way that the authorities don't like. And that's no thanks to idiots like Jim Irsay.

Hope the Colts lose this Sunday.

If I stepped in Irsay, I wouldn’t just wipe the shoe off, I’d throw it away.

What is MOST upsetting is the utter lack of LGBT players in the NFL. At least the ones OUT of the closet. The NFL needs to start asking. And telling.

So when does the lobbying begin to change the name to Negro Football League?

I wish I could say they lost me over this. . . They lost me a long time ago and the Vick situation only added to my distaste of the NFL and ALL pro sports.
Now I only watch College football. I will NOT support the drug invested Pro sports.

[DeaconRed]

Changing tagline.

I believe ALL of pro sports has a disproportionate number of blacks, compared to whites, as much more than 15%-20% (blacks as a percentage of general population) are occupying the NFL, NBA, etc., and therefore the ACLU should be pursuing an EEOC complaint about discrimination.

Why not?

That's what happens in the workplace, whenever the most-qualified are disregarded, and preference is NOT given based on race, the Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharpton's, and the ACLU are regularly bringing charges against targeted employers in the Private Sector, unless they cough up "donations" to certain groups.....

Obama’s race hustler in the Justice Department has not tried to bring back race quotas yet. When he does, we should remember to raise cain about the NFL and NBA.
