You've probably heard that right-wing talk show host Rush Limbaugh has put in a bid to purchase the St Louis Rams NFL team. At this point he and St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts, who is in on the bid with Limbaugh, "aren't thought to be the frontrunners". I wouldn't be surprised if he got it just the same because we all know that "money talks" and Rush likes to boast of his power. However, there are some football players who have vowed not to play for any team Limbaugh is associated with. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/2009/10/09/2009-10-09_black_nfl_players_crush_prospect_of_playing_for_a_rush_limbaughowned_st_louis_ra.html I have a feeling the Rams may also lose a fair number of fans and possibly ticket and merchandise sales. What do you think? If you're a Rams fan will you continue to root for them if Rush Limbaugh becomes the owner? Will it cause you to root AGAINST them? If you were a player, how would you feel about playing for someone many believe is a racist? Annie
