    Irsay made the comments in an interview with Andrea Kremer on Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. “I am prejudiced against because I’m a rich, white billionaire,” Irsay said. “If I’m just the average guy down the block, they’re not pulling me in, of course not.” Kremer pressed Irsay, asking him if he knew how it would sound for a white billionaire to claim that he was being prejudiced against. Irsay, however, was unmoved. “I don’t care what it sounds like. It’s the truth. You know, Andrea, I could give a damn what people think how anything sounds or sounds like....

    Here is video of Rush Limbaugh today taking a call from a liberal from Indiana named "Dwight."

Dwight is dissatisfied with Obama, because he believes Obama's Health Care Plan will be a $1.2 Trillion transfer to the Insurance Companies. Limbaugh begins this segment by reacting to CNN's hitjob story on him in which they theorize that people flock to Rush because he is...

    BOSTON – If Rush Limbaugh becomes a candidate to own the St. Louis Rams, he could face serious opposition from other NFL team owners.

Colts owner Jim Irsay vowed Tuesday to vote against him and commissioner Roger Goodell said the conservative commentator's "divisive" comments would not be tolerated from any NFL insider. "I, myself, couldn't even consider voting for him," Irsay said at the fall owners...
