Rush Limbaugh NFL Ownership Rumor Mill Back On

[DToTheJ]

Remember not too long ago when Rush Limbaugh expressed interest in becoming a part-owner of the St. Louis Rams, only to be overruled by the others in the ownership group?

Well, Republican Presidential hopeful Tim Pawlenty from Minnesota appeared on Rush's show and somehow the question of whether or not Rush would have any interest in owning the Vikings came up.

NFL "image" issues aside...
When you say the things Rush says, you tend to alienate a lot of people. That's all well and good when your audience can span the nation, since even a small niche of that large group can make you a lot of money. HOWEVER, when you are trying to make most of that money in ONE marketplace, you better not be alienating a large part of the potential revenue stream, which Rush possibly would do.

That's not even counting the personnel who may have misgivings over working for such a figure.

Only in America could a semi literate community college drop out DJ create a phony schtick and make millions, become a drug addict, lose his hearing due to drugs and own a football team.

Good thing I like soccer.

Sure thing Rush, now you can be like a plantation owner.
