NEW YORK (AP) - The Rev. Al Sharpton on Saturday threatened to sue conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh for writing in a column that the civil rights leader played a role in two New York race riots.

In a column published by the Wall Street Journal on Saturday about his derailed bid to become part-owner of the St. Louis Rams, he accuses Sharpton and the Rev. Jesse Jackson of making comments that helped get him booted from a group that was trying to buy the NFL team.

Limbaugh derided Sharpton as having played "a leading role in the 1991 Crown Heights riot" and the "1995 Freddie's Fashion Mart riot."

If Rush has all his information documented, then he should allow them to sue and take them out in court.

Let the Sharpton types support the NFL.

Let’s see how long that lasts . .LOL

Discovery on this one would be really fun, especially when Limbaugh’s attorneys get to see where Sharpton’s money comes from, where it goes, and who he was talking to about this NFL bid.

What this really means is “Whoops, looks like I Tawana Brawley’d this one, too. Hey, Rush, we still cool, right?”

Bring it Rev. If memory serves me correctly, you were convicted of inciting a riot in that case.

Rush Limbaugh’s lawyers versus Sharpton’s lawyers. I know who to bet on just so long as they don’t get an OJ jury
