In the last week, Rush Limbaugh has made a bid to buy the St Louis Rams. Everyone knows that Rush Limbaugh is a controversial (and yet popular) radio talk show host and this has gotten quite a bit of attention from the sports world and even in the regular news broadcasts. This conservative voice seems to have upset the NFL in the past by making comments about Donovan McNabb and comparing the NFL to street gangs. Roger Goodell has already commented on this matter saying "I think divisive comments are not what the NFL is all about" and Jim Irsay, owner of the Colts, says he would not approve Rush being an NFL owner.
Now my feelings on the Issue: Rush, stay out of St. Louis. Rush Limbaugh is a guy for politics and not sports management. Rush owning a team would upset a lot of people and players. The NFL is a place of sports and needs to keep the big political people out of it. I would think less of the NFL in general if they allow this deal to take place. However, I'm getting the vibe the NFL won't allow this buy.
P.S. Celebrities please stop buying into the Dolphins. That means you J. LO.
