The NFL has just told conservatives to drop dead! Good. I haven't watched their boring games in decades. What do you know - they don't welcome Rush Limbaugh as a football team owner and they don't want your attendance!

Unless Rush’s group or a superior bid are approved I will boycott the NFL.

Yep - going forward because of this, the NFL is dead to me. No games, no attention, no office discussions, and sure as hell NO MONEY.

Limbaugh is bad for business. The owners are trying to negotiate a collective bargaining agreement with the players union even now, and Limbaugh has a bad rep with the players for various reasons. Even though undeserved, they are doing this so that talks don’t heat up too much.

Irsay rags on Limbaugh yesterday. Today, I read that Adam Vinitieri, possibly the greatest clutch place kicker of our time, goes down for 2 months for arthroscopic knee surgery.

Karma? Just sayin’

Ms. Schlussel has based her commentary on the erroneous assumption that this is a capitalist economic system.

Now let's look at the facts.:
1. Jane Skinner (the commish's wife) works for FNC.
2. Rupert Murdoch was helped by Roger Ailes to build FNC into the Media Monolith it is.
3. Roger Ailes turned Rush from a small radio station talkie into the Media Monolith he is.

Conclusion: It's time for Jane Skinner to be FIRED!

Lets see according to the Commissioner of the NFL and the media Rush is a racist just like every other white male in America. And according to the numbers it looks as if about 80% of NFL players are black if they are correct about all whites being racist then I think all whites should stop buying tickets for the games. This will give the unfairly treated blacks the opportunity to buy better seats for lower bargain basement prices. Until the teams all go broke due to a lack of ticket sales and an increase in violence at the games including armed robberies in the stands and drive by shootings in the parking lots. Soon the black on black murder rate will go even higher due to the reduced prices and the popularity of football in the hood. On the bright side after a short time most of the teams will file for bankruptcy and Rush can buy multiple teams for pennies on the dollar. He will be able to hire players for minimum wage because they sure as hell cant work anywhere else. Most cant even read and write. I encourage all conservatives and all white males also known by the liberal male as all racist whites to boycott the NFL. Break the Bastards now.

Goodell lowered himself and entered the disgusting fray of faux-orthodoxy against Rush Limbaugh ... He attacked Limbaugh as “divisive” and publicly opposed his NFL ambitions. So did Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay.
Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay declared Tuesday that he would not approve a sale of the Rams to a group including Limbaugh, while NFL commissioner Roger Goodell cast polarizing comments by the conservative commentator as a “negative” for the league.

“I would not be in favor of voting for him,” said Irsay, adding that he might tap his former coach, current coach and the Colts’ star defensive end — all of whom are African-American — for direction. “If it was put before me, I could ask Tony Dungy, Jim Caldwell and Dwight Freeney and consult with them and see what position they’re coming from.

“Sometimes when there are comments made that are inappropriate, incendiary, insensitive … it’s bigger than football,” Irsay added. “As a nation, we have to watch the words that we say.”

Irsay maintains that owning an NFL franchise is a privilege that shouldn’t be afforded Limbaugh.

“Sometimes,” he said, “privileges are lost.”

Man-o-man. What word is below 'HYPOCRITE'? Anyway, I suggest that Jimmy STFU and first look in a mirror. Or better yet - in his FAMILY scrapbook.
Now You See Him, Now You Don't
Getting a fix on Indianapolis Colts owner Bob Irsay's background isn't easy..
Talk about someone who SHOULDN'T HAVE been allowed into the NFL. It's IRSAY. Your own daddy Jimmy.

And there's still a lot of us 'oldtimers' left here in the Chi Area who remember how Bob Irsay ran his Sheetmetal Co, like a drunken madman. Not to mention his involvement in the BID RIGGING Scandal. (a lying friggen criminal mutt)

It is very straight forward Goodell. Limbaugh fans are probably the largest individual group of NFL fans. Limbaugh could probably create a nationwide boycott that seriously harms the NFL’s bottom line.

Let me haul out my Leftard-English English-Leftard dictionary...

Time to stop buying tickets folks and show them just who fills the stands every Sunday. It sure isn’t the welfare class buying $100 tickets!
