First:<br /><br />On his syndicated show Thursday, Limbaugh said he was approached by St. Louis Blues chairman Dave Checketts earlier this year about participating in a Rams bid. Checketts assured him his involvement as a minority investor had been vetted by the NFL, he said.<br /><br />"I said to him at this meeting, 'Are you aware of the firestorm?' He said 'We wouldn't have approached you if we hadn't taken care of that,' " said Limbaugh, a conservative favorite who is reviled by many liberals.<br /><br />Limbaugh added that Checketts had told him his involvement had been cleared at the "highest levels of the NFL."<br /><br />Then:<br /><br />"Limbaugh blamed (DeMaurice) Smith, executive director of the NFLPA and an "Obama-ite," along with Sharpton and Jackson, whom he referred to as "race hustlers," for Checketts' decision to drop him. He said his sacking was an example of the political clout wielded by President Barack Obama's administration.<br /><br />"What is happening to the National Football League, what is about to happen to it, has already happened to Wall Street, has already happened to the automobile business," Limbaugh said.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />So either Limbaugh was lied to by Checketts, or Checketts was lied to by Goodell, or Limbaugh himself is lying now. But whose fault is it? Black guys' fault. I assume it's typical of the dink, although I never listen to him.<br /><br />Also, based on the last graf I excerpted, I'm guessing he didn't read your post.troyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01846187742319627525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2699293373755264330.post-45112219179495111132009-10-15T09:47:30.514-04:002009-10-15T09:47:30.514-04:00Doesn't take away from the fact that this is a...Doesn't take away from the fact that this is a hell of a post.
