Pardon me. I left "owners" from the very end of my last. "If all the world's a stage and all the people merely players, who in bloody hell hired the director?" -- Charles L Grant

THAT pissed me off more than Rush's b.s.! In fact, Tom Jackson addressed the Limbaugh statement only AFTER he was fired. But you know, if truth be told, I don't think Limbaugh differs much from other NFL owners. They just don't have daily radio shows.

I am amazed at ESPN hiring him as a commentator a few years back. And what did he do? Within a short time, claimed the media was being soft on Donovan McNabb just because he was black. I was so pissed at that I almost threw something at the television. To this day i'm not at all clear why they did that. I was also upset that the blacks on the show that day didn't argue with him: they can spend all their time yelling about who was the greatest player in their day, but let that racist rant on like that. At any rate, this is horrible. Of course, as is always the way with this, the mainstream will turn it on us and say "so now you want to judge people like this" and they'll find some black person who's a member of the NAACP or something, and try to block him from owning a team with whites on it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mr. Worf" <hellomahog...@gmail.com> To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, October 11, 2009 6:05:32 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: [scifinoir2] African American Football players say they won't work for Rush I couldn't pass this story up. Rush Limbaugh wants to buy the St. Louis Rams, black players say they would boycott the team. I don't blame them at all. http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-random11-2009oct11,0,6499393.story -- Bringing diversity to perversity for over 9 years!
