Low Class: NFL Commissioner, Team Owner Attacking Limbaugh (NFL to Conservatives: Drop Dead Alert)
Debbie Schlussel ^ | 10/14/2009 | Debbie Schlussel

Goodell lowered himself and entered the disgusting fray of faux-orthodoxy against Rush Limbaugh in his bid to become a part owner of the NFL’s St. Louis Rams. He attacked Limbaugh as “divisive” and publicly opposed his NFL ambitions. So did Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay. Limbaugh may very well soon own part of the Rams. And Goodell will have to eat crow and work with the ownership team of which he’s a part. This was a boneheaded move and not at all professional. Goodell reduced himself to a nobody by publicly denouncing Limbaugh. These people sound like Politburo members, not gazillionaire owners and executives of a major American sports monopoly.

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!

Conservaphobia is a very trendy disease.

Did you see who's running the NFLPA?

Guy named Demaurice Smith.

The NFLPA is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Obama, Inc.

So why is Olbermann okay for NBCs Sunday Night Football broadcast and why did the NFL Network have Brent Gumball calling games.

The NFL seems to have no problems with Obama supporters in the League. Yet Rush is just "too divisive." Yeah, half of America is to them. That's a poor business decision, offending half of your customers!

I’d like to see Rush buy the alphabet channels and then deny the NFL airtime - except on Fox of course...;’}

If Rush fails to get this conservatives should STOP watching NFL games.

I hope Rush sues for everything they got every dino-media they got that reported he said slavery was a good thing and praised James Earl Ray.

He has a case.

The question is, would conservative football fans participate in a boycott of the NFL, would they be able to abstain from the NFL long enough to get their feeling across to the NFL? I know most men (especially conservative) are utterly addicted to the watching of the sport of Football.

I wonder if Rush could spearhead a boycott of the NFL to put pressure on them to re-think their snap knee jerk judgment of him.

They obviously have no idea how many football fans listen to Rush and KNOW he's not a racist, nor is he "divisive."

This is really stupid.

The sports world is dominated by libs. They just don't like conservatives joining their "club."

From this link...

Smith trying to avoid lockout

In selecting Smith this year, the union chose Washington smarts over football experience. Smith, a Washington lawyer, served on the Obama transition team and also worked for Eric Holder before Holder became attorney general.

And he was elected, ironically enough, with a secret ballot.

As divisive as someone who works in urban neighborhoods convincing the residents that they can blame everything on whitey and that they can't improve without help from the government?

Rush is a community organizer! 2 million residents of his community went to DC not long ago. Rush is a better community organizer than Opposum!

No wonder Rush is radioactive to the NFL.

You know he can, but by the same token, you know he won't.

If I were the players, I’d be very curious about where my dues are going...
