Rush Limbaugh-NFL
Everyone we need to start a letter writing campaign to the NFL and specifically Roger Goodell with the top 10 racist quotes by Limbaugh. We can stop him from owning an NFL team if we work on it. Also if we can get Color of change to help we can kill his dream

1. Black players are already raising objections.....
..... the NFL is stepping into a big pile of mierda if they allow him to buy a team.

9. It is a little different
Marge Schott "inherited" the team when her husband died.

I think the NFL would have to "approve" Rush' ownership bid.

I am torn on this. On the one hand, I would love for the NFL to smack this "ass-pickle" down. On the other hand, the NFL could mandate that his radio show would have to go (much too controversial), as part of an agreement for him to own the team.

Of course, karma would be for the St Louis Rams to continue to stink up the field, causing Rush to lose hundred's of millions of dollars.

It truly would be justice to see Rush broken, busted and bankrupted by his own ego.

5. Let him buy the team.
and let Goodall fine him and suspend him everytime he opens his hateful mouth. Besides I need a team I can consistently root against.

12. I doubt the other NFL owners would let him in their club.
Not because of politics, but because Rush is a known racist. That's bad for business. And the NFL is a business, first & foremost.

(For all non-football fans: Rush's bid to buy the Rams has to be voted on by the other NFL owners.)
