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’
There was a story posted here not so very long ago that showed a majority of the owners in the NFL lean to the right, politically -- if I'm not mistaken, some declared themselves conservative.
These players who claim they will not play for a team if it is owned by Rush, I haven't seen them refuse to play against teams that include other players who attended the Republican National Convention last year.
Ms. Schlussel has based her commentary on the erroneous assumption that this is a capitalist economic system.
The cure: 2010 and 2012.
This is the very definition of fascism. "Think like us or we will punish you..."
Sorry, Goodell is a big boy. He is not a pawn. He controls his own mouth. He said what he said, yet Obermann still comments on the Sunday night NFL pre-game show.
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.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.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.”
Now You See Him, Now You Don'tTalk about someone who SHOULDN'T HAVE been allowed into the NFL. It's IRSAY. Your own daddy Jimmy.
Getting a fix on Indianapolis Colts owner Bob Irsay's background isn't easy..
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)
Ha!
I'll bet it's way MORE than half!
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...
Divisive. Adj. Newpeak. Derog. A person, idea, or policy that opposes or interferes with Satan’s agenda for eradicating freedom from the face of the Earth.
I bet if all conservatives boycotted NFL broadcasts next Sunday, they'd find out we are more than half their audience, by a fair margin. Not too many ponytailed peacenik arugula eaters watching their highly paid thugs pound each other.
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!
it was Maryland
and as an Indiana resident, I wish they would have stayed there.
Irsay ripped off the taxpayers for a $700 million dollar stadium we can't afford. The city is laying off 50 grand a year minions to save money to operate it.
Are you kidding? He just insured he will be around as long as he wants.
I will now cease watching any and all NFL football.
I lost interest in the NFL awhile back when I realized there were so few players that “looked like me.” I felt discriminated against. There were few role models that I could relate to and look up to. The game did not, in my opinion, reflect America. The local high school football games are of more interest to me now.
