Limbaugh should be blocked from bidding on Rams

[HI54UNI]

What you are failing to comprehend, Z, is that no one knows who the hell fergie is. Everyone knows Rush, what an ass he is, and how divisive he is.

Not good business to be associated with him, when you are in the public arena like the NFL is.

AZ Tells us we do not understand business and implies that he understands good business decisions...
Yet can't wrap his head around this business decision




WOW..!!!!

Please explain how this is a good business decision. Rush has 40 million + listeners each week. According to you they do exactly what he tells them. So they just alienated a guy that can tell his 40 million + followers to quit watching NASCAR on Sundays and to instead watch the Rams or the NFL in general. Those 40 million people buy merchandise, tickets, concessions, etc. because Rush told them to. Doesn't sound like a good decision.

Yeah, kinda gross exageration. He does control the political viewpoints of millions of fucking morons, like you, but he would have no influence on their desire or lack thereof for sports.

Just like everything that republicans touch these days, he would turn the NFL into a violent circus.

Great business decision to exclude him. A decision made by the leaders of the most successful industry in America - professional football.

I'm going to play along (because I think you're actually pretending not to get it)

Business 101

The NFL is the most watched sport in America - NFL TV ratings are up 20% and the highest they've been in 30 years - It's a National sport 100% about entertainment (fun) designed to appeal to everyone...

The NFL is in a situation where all-is-well and growing...

What Rush brings to the table as a positive
1) Money (but lots of people have money)
2) 20 Million listeners who believe every word he says is gospel

What Rush brings as a negative
1) Another 20 million people who hate him
2) past racial comments regarding the NFL - 70% of the NFL players are black
3) Huge future potential to shoot his mouth off and further alienate players and fans
4) Drug trafficking felony issues


As a plain old business decision - it's 2 to 1 in the don't do it column - done...

I see. So he can only control their POLITICAL minds. Not the rest of them. Damn, he must be REALLY good at what he does.

You still didn't address the main point, I thought Rush controlled his listeners and told them what to do and think? Is that true or not?

He does... so that's 20 million ditto-heads (as he calls them)
Now what does he do with the 20 million people that hate him..?

I call that a wash at best & certainly not an advantage...

[AZGrizFan]

So you admit it was political.

[Cleets Part 2]

So you admit it was political.

You're either a dolt or you're pretending for fun...
Political or not - it's bad business for the NFL to have Rush Limbaugh's name attached to anything (period)


Read this slowly: Bad for business the opposite of Good for Business...




If it was just a political decision he'd be in - after all Alpha already said all the owners were republicans - so why not make a "political " statement and let him buy in...!!! that's how politics works

But it's also business

and it would be a "bad" business decision.... get it..?

If Noam Chomsky wanted to buy in - and all the dealers were Liberals and they wanted to make a Political statement they would let him buy in.... if they were smart business owners they would NOT...

can you FUCKING understand that you bunch of knuckle dragging retards..?

Keep diggin' though.

You are the only one digging. Fergie? From the BEP? What, she buying a franchise?

[HI54UNI]

I call that a wash at best & certainly not an advantage...

How many of those 20 million that hate him have even watched a football game? It's not like you're going to be losing an extra 20 million fans compared to the 20 million that he will add because he tells them what to do.

Just admit it, Rush is not as powerful as you like to pretend.

[houndawg]

I'm not saying the owners are better than Rush, just sayin' that they're to smart to be publicly condemning drug use in the NFL and then take on a junkie as a partner.

But they didn't have a problem taking Fergie's money--a confirmed junkie. Then again, she doesn't have a controversial right-wing talk radio show.

And this wasn't political. Yeah, RIGHT.

Hypocrisy knows no bounds...

Fergie? Is that what Rush calls his pecker or something?

[BlueHen86]

So you admit it was political.

It was business.

I'd bet that most owners like Rush and agree with much of his politics. It's just that NFL owners like money even more.

Right or wrong, Rushs' involvement generated unwanted publicity; so he's out.

He does... so that's 20 million ditto-heads (as he calls them)

Nope. But neither was Rush.

One thing I have noticed about Republicans...
They can be hard to distinguish from Republi-tards
which is what we have here... on the whole "I don't understand why Rush can't play" for 700 posts...

can somebody 'splain that un' more time..???

As opposed to the demo-tard, who can't understand that our issue isn't that he can't "play", it's the owners double-standard hypocrisy in allowing drug users, addicts and other controversial "popular" people to "play", but then cowtowing to the obviously overtly political push by the players association, and most likely only because it's a contract year.

Does that clear it up for you?

SURE...and how about this:
In any year = Rush is bad for Business that isn't LUNATIC FRINGE - and that's Free Market Capitalism 101

WRONG Again...
The fans don't pay to watch the owners
It's always about the players - they run the asylum - and RUSH is bad for business (PERIOD)

it's not that confusing

Fans don't give two SHITS who the owners are. As you said, they don't pay to watch the owners. Nobody outside of Dallas Texas gives a rats ass about Jerry Jones. Nobody outside of the beltway gives a shit about Daniel Snyder. Same would have been true (AND ESPECIALLY TRUE) of a VERY MINOR player like Rush Limbaugh, but Goddell caved (VERY unlike him) to pressure from the players association, and the ONLY reason he would do that is it's a contract year. The NFL is the ONE league where players do NOT run the asylum...the NFLPA is probably the least powerful of ALL the league unions....but you already knew that, right?
