That’s me. I’m done with professional sports.

Still hoping they won’t take college football from me, but if I see on more Notre Dame promo touting “social justice” that may go too.

[FrdmLvr]

It won’t be hard not to watch the Lions.

[GeronL]

BUMP.

I can’t go cold turkey. But I never spend a dime on their merchandise anyway. This will probably be my last season giving a care.

[tubebender]

I happen to be a hugh RUSH fan and I don’t need the NFL anymore then I need the State Controlled News Media...

[TankerKC]

I don’t know how Rush can remain a fan after this.

[VR-21]

Count me among them. I’ve loved pro football all my life, and I’ve got wonderful memories of watching men like Johnny Unitas, Bob Lily, Paul Horning and YA Tittle. I remember the games on the Gillette Cavalcade of Sports, where all the commercials were for shaving products, beer and cigars, and the halftime shows were some local school marching band. Then came the money, and now comes the stench of leftist politics. To hell with it all. I’ll find something else to do and be glad I won’t be around for the NFL’s first ‘gay day.’ I’m incredibly bitter about this, but I’m definitely done with it.

[TigersEye]

It was the ultimate responsibility of the NFL's commissioner, Roger Goodell, to put a stop to this nonsense. But did Goodell step forward? No. In fact, he...

...is an effing pussy just like everyone else who made crap up about Rush.

[bahblahbah]

Oh give me a break... it’s stupid to boycott over this...

[freekitty]

It’s beyond sane reason that a man who heads an organization such as the NFL could state publically without any proof a lie.

The NFL, as if they could go any lower, just did.

[EDINVA]

It’ll be intersting to see the Neilsen ratings for this weekend’s NFL games. I hope no self-respecting conservative turns on any games.

[dalebert]

geraldo is doing a nice job on him tonight and giving sharpton nice face time.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

So much for the drive-by state-run NLFL (National Liberal Football League).

[Seaplaner]

I can say that my enthusiasm has been, indeed, dampened a bit.

I can also report that I view the Colts with less favor (because of owner Jim Irsay's lying misdirection play with the facts) even though I admire Manning and some others on the team.

Just guessing, but watch for the NFL to try to pet us conservatives pretty hard, with all kinds of faux patriotism etc. (And don't buy it, at least not while Marxist Obama chum DeMaurice Smith is connected w the players' union.)

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

I’m not advocating anything, just pointing out one consequence of this little dust-up:

If say 20% of a given team’s audience is Conservative who will cease their support (not watching Sunday TV, I mean actual revenue, as in buying season tickets, going to games, etc;) then in my crude estimation every NFL team just lost about 10% of its value. They’re worth about a $billion. Times how many teams? That’s a lot of scratch.

[Montanabound]

There are a lot of female football fans, too, who are mad as hell.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Could Arena Football/Arena 2 be the winner in all this?

[Frantzie]

The NFL is a sh*t. Mindless entertainment for morons. The Michael Vick, Ray Lewis league of criminals.

[Rome2000]

They know that Rush is a strong competitor and would bring that "must win" attitude to the NFL.

Bottom line is that we are witnessing McCarthyism in reverse.

Limbaugh has shown remarkable restraint.

Commies Raus.

[Billthedrill]

I really don't care so much whether Rush becomes a minority owner of the Rams - the St. Louis fans are really the only losers if he doesn't. But this is the last straw in a very large load. Why am I making these idiots rich? They only hold me in contempt.

See you, guys. It used to be fun but now it isn't.

[DemonDeac]

Football is six minutes worth of action spread out over four hours. Yawn.
