Limbaugh, Checketts interested in Rams

ST. LOUIS -- Green Bay Packers fans are known as cheeseheads. Could fans of the St. Louis Rams soon be dittoheads?

Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh said Tuesday he is teaming up with St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts in a bid to buy the Rams, owners of the NFL's longest losing streak at 14 and just 5-31 since 2007.
In a statement, Limbaugh declined to discuss details, citing a confidentiality agreement with Goldman Sachs ( GS - news - people ), the investment firm hired by the family of former Rams owner Georgia Frontiere to review assets of her estate, including the NFL team.

1. As a Seahawk fan it will be PURE GOLD.

I already hate the Rams, but oh baby would that get amped up.

2. Too bad they already got their annual ass-whuppin' at the 'Stick!

I can just picture the scene at Uncle Bert's, a Niners bar in the Castro. That's right, the Castro. A Niners bar. Deal with it, OxyMoron. :P

4. That was an awesome game!

Love my niners, especially when they're beating the Rams. I didn't hate them as much since that tool Warner left, but if this deal goes through they're back in the dog house.

3. Now, now, Lynne. The beagle killer is playing for the eagles.

That makes them currently the most hated team in Football!

:D

6. Oh hardly

He's not made any impact for the team other than a bizarro increase in Eagles jersey's with his name on his back.

5. May they lose every game - forever.

7. One can only hope that the Rams bankrupt him n/t

8. I can't imagine that Rush has the sort of $$$ that it takes to buy an NFL team

[LynneSin]

9. First he has a partner, but the guy has gotten very rich off of smearing the left

It's a very lucrative business and the nastier you get the more books they'll bulk buy to make you look like a best selling author that people should want to heed to.

Why do you think people like Rush, Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly and Coulter are so far out there bat-shit crazy loop job. It pays better!

10. Granted this is a second tier NFL team but I have to think it's worth

at least half a billion dollars. I have to think even Rush doesn't have this sort of cash. Especially after the amounts he has spent on drugs and prostitutes.

11. Trust me, I think the guy does

He may not be going into this 50-50 but Rush has built a mega-empire scamming the stupid.
