If Rams fans weren’t so thrilled with Georgia Frontiere as owner, how do you think they’d feel about Rush Limbaugh?
The ST. LOUIS BUSINESS JOURNAL reports that the right-wing radio host would be interested in buying the football franchise if it were up for sale:
“The Rams would be a great team to have,” Limbaugh said in a phone interview from his Palm Beach, Fla., studio. “I have a lot of friends in ownership in the NFL, and my desire to get involved has not been a secret.”
Coach Scott Linehan would definitely have to become more conservative with his play calling. Bu doesn’t the league already have enough drug problems to deal with?
Rush’s brush with team ownership is sure to be as successful as his last venture into an NFL-related enterprise. Guess this means Donovan McNabb can cross off St. Louis as a future roster destination.
Or does it? Even though Limbaugh just signed a new $300 million radio deal, he doesn’t hold high hopes that he has the financial strength to acquire an NFL club:
“I have no debt whatsoever. This would require changing that,” he said. “There is a whole lot of interest in the Rams with the NFL being a business entity that a lot of people want to be involved in. But it’s becoming a billionaires’ club.”
Maybe Rush can ask his listeners for donations to help make his Rams purchase a reality. Hey, it worked for Oral Roberts.
