Black NFL players say they won't play for a Rush Limbaugh-owned St. Louis Rams. Since Rush knows they are all "Afffirmative action hires" anyway, that shouldn't bother him, should it? See LINK:

    I would be willing to bet a lot of guys who say they wouldn't play for him would be in Rams uniforms if it meant staying in the NFL. Talk is cheap.

    The last time I looked, NFL players play for money. I don't see the team having a problem getting black players. Though it does look like all (2) the players interviewed, wouldn't play for him.
    Since affirmative action in the NFL would be a benefit to white players, I would think having black players wouldn't be a problem anyway.
    Besides, unlike the real world, professional sports is more of a true meritocracy. If you can't do the job, it doesn't matter who you know, how much money you have, or what color you are, you're gone. If only politics was based on the same system!
    Btw, McNabb is over-rated, though not necessarily for Fat Boy's reasoning.

    Don't worry, he won't be able to get the team. OxyContin is not an acceptable form of payment.

    He should get his fat drug addicted ass out there on the field and toss the ball around with them. Maybe they'll think a little more of the nazi punk.

    Players play for money. Sports teams have been owned by bigots for decades. It took ten decades of baseball before racist owners let African Americans on the field. So let the players play where they want to and forget the idiots whose egos tell them they need to own a sports franchise to satisfy their bloated self images.

    "Play ball," or what ever it is they say in the NFL. "Hike?"

    Right. Black players aren't in if for the MILLIONS of dollars. I'll wait on that one.

    I think he should build a team of drugged up blowhards who reflect who he is and let them battle it out on the football fields. Imagine a team with everyone a rushbaugh clone? Now I'd pay to see that, wouldn't you? :)

    All I can say is I'm not surprised. Rush Limbaugh is a pompous, hypocritical ass. Personally, I just wish he would go away.
