So, what they are saying to Rush is move to the back of the bus, don't drink from our fountain, don't eat with us at our restaurant. We don't want your kind here.

The NFL players need to clean up their own act before they alienate their fans.

I don't want Rush to buy the Rams any more than the Players Union does.  It would be an utter catastrophe!  Can you imagine what a man like Rush being the Rams owner would do to the NFL?  Hell No, I don't want that!

I mean, I'm a Bears fan, so I certainly don't want to see Limbaugh take over the Rams and then be as successful in NFL ownership as he has been in everything else he does!  The Rams share a conference with my Beloved Bears, after all! So I say "No to Rush's Rams!!!!"

LMAO! I mean, does anyone outside of St Louis really want the Rams to be right a certified 98.8% of the time?

So it looks like if the Rams are serious about this they need to sack up and strike to protest the possible sale to Rush.

If they are just a bunch of talkers who are not willing to walk the walk then they should actually practice what was in their letter and not go "backwards" but be a little more accepting to everyones different beliefs and ideas, come together in the name of the sport and move on.

If the NFL takes this into consideration, and it is determined to be a reason Rush does not win the bid I am done with them and anything else related. I am so sick of the accusation of hatred and racism toward me and others like me I could literally puke. 

What do expect?  A classless union thug is a classless union thug.  But, as is typical with the "leadership", this gasbag shoots his big mouth off, wading into an issue that is none of his business and he alienates a significant segment of the NFL audience.  Does he actually think the NFLPA is going to get more sympathy during their next Collective Bargaining negotiation?  Hell, no.  This is a fight that the union can't win.  Here's a tip for all the goons who believe they can advance their agenda by forcing an uninterested third party (the customer) in their labor disputes with management: we don't care about your petty disagreements.  Sort your conflicts out with ownership on your own time and leave us the hell out of it.  Just shut up and play and give us what we demand: Football.  And stay the hell out of political sabre rattling, you just further the stereotype that you're a bunch of out-of-touch parasites.

I don't think Rush will be owning the Rams or any major sports team any time ever. He couldn't make it as an NFL commentator how could be make it as an owner. Rush has made his bed with all of his past comments, and now he has to lie in it. But if, on some slim chance Rush becomes part owner of the Rams he wouldn't be a successful owner. He wouldn't be able to lure free agents in to play for him, unless he overpaid for them, and because the NFL has a salary cap this isn't a winning strategy. 

I'm afraid that this is what it's come to.  Some mob (majority) doesn't approve of the politics, religion, weight, looks, etc. of an individual and therefore feels justified in subjugating, marginalizing, and attacking them.  We don't like you, so we won't let you play with us. This illustrates the "social" behavior of socialists: conform or die.

Camouflage conservative in Baghdad-by-the-Bay

Discrimination is alive and well.....in the NFL.  Conservative white males need not apply.  Perhaps what they can do next is to install separate drinking fountains and restrooms for white conservatives too. 

If that sounds absurd, just imagine if this action had been initiated against a liberal black woman.  It would be the end of the world for the NFL.  Then again, we're now in a world where it's okay to discriminate against white men; especially conservative white men.

I quit watching MLB when they struck many years ago. I am just now starting to pay attention again.  

When the NFL players strike next fall, that will probably be the last straw for me. The NFL like, MLB and NASCAR has  priced itself out of me being able to take my sons to a game or race.  

Let's face one fact. There are a lot of blacks in the NFL that think Obama can do not wrong. Let him tax the hell out of their million dollar salaries and let's you if they cahnge their tunes.

I want this union, the SEIU, UAW and others to keep talking and protesting. It shows how unions have morphed from protecting workers to political organizations. 

We don't have to decide whether the folks in power are promoting socialism or fascism.

They have unleashed creeping sharia... our daily activities are being restricted.

We must watch what we do, say, think, eat and drink.

Anyone who wants to succeed needs to toe the line.

Does anyone know if Missouri is a right to work state?  If it is, what the hell does the union have a say about anything in St Louis?  If it is a right to work state Rush ought to hire as many non-union players (if there are any) as he can.  You never know, most of them probably are the go-along to get-along types.  They may just be happy as hell with Rush.

You can't deny someone the right of ownership because of your own racial politics. And Smith's comments make it clear that his opposition to Rush is based solely on his own personal racial beliefs.

...I tune out when Rush starts talking sports.  But he's made the point on his show more than once is that passion for football doesn't bear the risks that passion for a woman does.  I guess he's seeing that there are all kinds of rejection out there.

I believe that somewhere in the neighborhood of 30% of NFL players have a criminal record.  Perhaps they would like to police their own ranks before they go after Rush.  What, exactly, do they think Rush is going to do?  Maybe he'll try to field an all white team -  that would really be competitive.  This attempt to overlay a politically correct template over every aspect of society is really getting tired. 

Is this a case of a union not being politically representative of it's own members? Something tells me, racial politics aside, that many in the NFL are, at least, economically conservative - politically speaking.

The "Mainstream" Media: By liberals. For liberals.

So, all those "highly intelligent" black players who were allowed to go through school, without actually learning anything; are now going to say, no, I won't play for Rush. Very cool. The car wash in the area needs good qualified help from you. Maybe the city can hire you, because all that "big" money you will make for not playing a game that pays you millions. Garbage trucks need help too. Stupid dolts don't understand how good they have it in life, with all those adoring whiteys paying to see you run, catch or tackle. Give me a break.

Up until this point I could care less who owns the St. Louis Rams, but NOW??

Not only do I hope he succeeds, but that he then changes the name to

THE ST. LOUIS RUSH

Chicago's 2016 Olympic Games bid... one more example of Obama's SMART diplomacy. 

The NFL Players Union. HAH!  Now there's an exercise in futility!  Tell me, players, does that "union" supply you your agents?  You know, the people who actually do your bargaining for you? If not, then what good is that "union?"

What does th NFL Players Union actually do? What is their actual function? It can't be collective bargaining, each player bargains individually for their contracts.

The weakest Union in all of sports if not all America thinks it actually has any influence at all in this matter? The NFL players Union is a joke that is taken extremly lightly by the all powerful commissioners office. I doubt this will have any effect on the decision.

Rush just has to hope the owners, who are all powerfull leaders in their industries, don't have an issue with him. Something tells me they probably won't. 

          The Rams haven't won a game for quite a while. Maybe they should concentrate on football, instead of Limbaugh. It doesn't matter who own the Rams, they are still loosers.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

So these guys who make a VERY good living are going to do WHAT if Rush buys the team?  Going to quit?  Going to try to go to another team...and do what if they can't?  Are they going to TRY to lose on purpose?

Come on, I agree with Stephen A Smith...these guys are all about the green...they'll do their jobs and keep their mouths shut as long as they work for the team Rush owns.
