skinzzfan25 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/sports/stories.nsf/rams/story/F55ABA87FAC07F5786257495005339F6?OpenDocument Political talk show radio host Rush Limbaugh said if the St. Louis Rams came up for sale, he might be interested in buying the team.Limbaugh told KMOX radio in St. Louis that NFL ownership is a "billionaire's club." He said he's not part of that club, but is in good financial shape. Limbaugh said any move he makes would be a business decision, and not based on his ties to the region. Limbaugh is from Cape Girardeau, Mo. I was thinking of posting this in ATN... but I figured the tailgate would have MUCH more fun with this.

Major Harris Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 How long would it take for him to run the Rams into the ground? yeah, he doesn't seem to be an astute businessman whatsoever. edit: damn, i don't want to sound like i think he'd make a good owner....:doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfitzo53 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 The circle jerk of hate is alive and well here i see. I don't see what there really is to like about the guy, and that's coming from someone who supports gun ownership and is generally against abortion. The other owners would not approve the deal. I'm inclined to agree, considering that the deal would be unpopular with so many players and fans. (Granted, it would be quite popular with another segment, but I don't think the owners would go for it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they went from one money grubber to a possible pill popping one to own the team. Man how sad for STL fans if that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bschurm Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 What's the big deal? If he wants to own the Rams and can afford it, why not? And why do some of you think the owners wouldn't go for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
