NFL = Not For Limbaugh

Rush Limbaugh will NOT be a part owner of the St. Louis Rams.

Citing probable and insurmountable opposition to Limbaugh, the head of the group bidding for ownership of the team dropped the outspoken radio pundant from their group and vowed to press on without him.

Limbaugh said he will have no statement on his show or in the media regarding his removal today but characteristicly had plenty to say yesterday, according to a published report on ESPN.com.

“This is not about the NFL, it’s not about the St. Louis Rams, it’s not about me,” Limbaugh said. “This is about the ongoing effort by the left in this country, wherever you find them, in the media, the Democrat Party, or wherever, to destroy conservatism, to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a conservative.

“Therefore, this is about the future of the United States of America and what kind of country we’re going to have.”

Apparantly the NFL Players Assocation, the union representing the players have an opinion on the future of our country as well. They also oppose Limbaugh and the majority of the St. Louis Rams roster doesn’t like the idea of being helmed by Limbaugh either.

All this opposition is, in my opinion, shocking given Rush Limbaugh’s stellar history of unification and inclusion of all viewpoints and his bi-partisan outlook on all things. He has been a selfless advocate of all people’s opinions…and if you believe that, I’ve got a team to sell you…just as soon as MY bid to buy the Detroit Lions succeeds!

WELCOME…AGAIN!

Welcome to my “new” blog!

The quotes surrounding new are because this is actually about the third time I’ve redesigned this blog and started from scratch on the contents!

So why am I redesigning and restarting this? Simply put, I’ve recently decided that “social networking” sites like Facebook and Twitter, while FAR superior in audience, are not a place that I want publish my thoughts and opinions or share content that might be “controversial”. If you’re reading this blog, it’s by CHOICE and you have the option to leave and not comeback if you don’t like it…but I hope you will! Such is NOT the case on open forums like Twitter or Facebook and BELIEVE me, I’ve lost quite enough friends on Facebook so I’m not looking to tick the few I have off! LOL!

A couple of quick notes. First, while I’m going to write or select the content here, I would like nothing more than for this to be INTERACTIVE and I’m going to be continously looking for ways to involve you, my readers, in the process as much as you want! Secondly and I guess lastly, I hope that you’ll find the content here diverse and interesting but feedback will ALWAYS be welcome and I want to hear from you – love this or hate it!

Here’s to “new” begininnings (although I’m sure that’s redundant) and thanks for visiting…I hope you’ll become a regular reader!
