Yeah so I for one, will not purchase anything of NFL .I don’t care what team it is. Or watch.
When you purchase and watch, you are supporting the decision.
First, they came for Rush...

Rush will make more $ off the lawsuits than he would have as an owner, in all likelihood.
Still, sucks.
Maybe he ought to buy NBC instead. Then shut it down.

Boycott the NFL and encourage friends and family to vote down every municipal vote on NFL stadiums.

Might be blessing in disguise-— we wouldn’t want Rush too involved with NFL ownership and diverting from his talents with broadcasting at this critical time in our history.

Someone should start a boycott the nfl site and campaign. Then maybe protest at NFL games outside stadiums. I’m done with the NFL for good.

I’d say he has a lawsuit - reverse racism. I guarantee you that IF he were black, they wouldn’t be concerned as much about the color of his money.

For many hundreds of years, negros were not allowed to buy a house in a lot of neighborhoods because they were not “the right kind of people”.
This is just putting the shoe on the other foot as now it will be white conservatives who are not the right kind of people.

I believe Rush has been called for such a time as this. At this point in his life and at this point of crisis in our nation’s history, unlike any crisis since the Civil War, Rush has the power, the talent, the experience, the eloquence, the audience, the insider contacts, the intelligence, the fearlessness, and the financial independence to be a voice like no other.
Our country is fighting for its life; we are at war & right now he is one of the only generals we have.

This episode exemplifies how POWERFUL and DANGEROUS these Socialists are.
There is and will be no middle ground between these types and Conservatives. You either subscribe to their ideology or prepare to get run over.
This is not a game with these people. They will do ANYTHING to achieve and keep total control.

[Critters2]

1. They're going to boycott Pepsi, Coke, and football.

I give that about 10 minutes.

[Swamp Rat]

7. Wow! You are giving them a lot of credit.

10 minutes is a long time in the World of Short Attention Spans.

[lunatica]

22. I just stole your goofy gif!

[onethatcares]

12. and every NFL stadium referendum in the U.S. of A.

gaud bless their flinty hearts. :wow:

[villager]

2. "They don't want whitey anymore" is kind of a telling comment

...from these fearful, soul-eclipsed, angry sad people....

[imdjh]

6. I don't understand why anyone watches football. But if the "representative" construct of ....

... the entertainment industry (our shows represent the diversity of our viewership...) applies, then wouldn't we expect that the white viewership of those pro-sports which have become nearly all black, would be dropping off?

[imdjh]

3. If the Freepers (or the Duers for that matter) boycotted everything they have ever threatened...

We'd all be sitting in our houses eating rice and oatmeal, with the TV turned off and no phone or internet.

[MNDemNY]

5. Nope. you can't eat oatmeal, it's racist.

down to rice. (WHITE rice)

[Arugula Latte]

25. No Oatmeal! Wilford Brimley is a lousy Republican!

:spank:

[Neecy]

4. Wow, what fun reading!

Oh, and the guy who claims that he canceled NFL Sunday ticket - DirecTv will still charge him out the butt. It's very hard to just cancel sports packages once the season starts.

It'll hit HIM where it hurts...twice as hard!

[piratefish08]

8. This is Series!1

[johnnie]

9. It's the start of the revolution baby!

I like this one:

"Football will be harder but I am prepared to give it up. Maybe I will spend more time at church and on the internet where my time is productive."
:rofl:

[onethatcares]

13. think he has a tub of

jerkins lotion handy?:shrug:

46. well church will be more productive if only for the fundy

nutjob preacher who will be cleaning out this freeper's pockets there.

[Touchdown]

10. Yeah. That's going to last.

:rofl:

[jobycom]

11. God, they're dumb. We don't even need Stephen Colbert, they just do it by themselves.

Kind of makes you wonder what happened to their praise of the free market, doesn't it? I mean, the public doesn't want a racist bigot connected to a product they use, thus the owners of that product tell the racist bigot they don't want him because he'll cost them too much money... What's not free market about that?

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Hard of readying? It was Obama and Keith... SERIES!!!!!

[FightingIrish]

14. If this kind of slime boycotts the NFL that can only be good for football

What the real impact of this outcome is that Rush's sponsors may now have to admit how toxic he really is.

[Initech]

15. You should seriously lose your voting privaleges if you are too dumb to reallize why.

[gratuitous]

16. I am prepared to offer a shiny nickel to any DUer

Any DUer who wants to go to Free Republic each week and start an NFL-related thread each Sunday, recapping games, extolling good plays, moaning about bad calls, will get a shiny nickel from me. Extra nickels for each post your thread draws from any of the nitwits (the ones who are through with the NFL "forever") who posted in this thread who join in your discussion.

[pipi_k]

34. bwahahahahah!!!! Really get their goats...

Maybe the "mole" can poke them a bit:


"Oh, man, did you all see the way that guy rushed for the touchdown?"

"Wow! the defense is really ramming themselves down the QB's throat!"


You know...rub it in a little...

hahahahhaah

[Initech]

35. I would seriously love to see that.

Of course someone would need to post the comments here for those of us who don't want to sift through all the crap.

[gratuitous]

47. The nickels are REALLY shiny

Come onnnnnnn. Anyone?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

18. LMMFAO "we wouldn’t want Rush too involved with NFL ownership and diverting from his talents

with broadcasting". Not since the days of Joseph 'Le Petomane' Pujol has blowing enormous amounts of gas out of your asshole every day been classified as a talent.

[JuniperLea]

19. Hey! Can we stir up a controversy for baseball too?

Cuz I would love to go to a game without seeing W and McCain*Palin stickers on Hummers and monster trucks in the parking lot... and worry about catching the cooties from them!

:rofl:

The Backwash Contingency is a very small, very loud, and very stinky group. I hope they follow through... this time. :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

20. Funniest comments and my responses:

Race baiters win again!

Yeah, 'cuz everyone knows Rush is not a race baiter.

Another step closer to the second American Revolution.

Yeah, except the original revolutionaries risked getting shot at, they didn't hide behind their computer keyboards.

Adolph Obama is smiling.

Adolph Obama? Does he make meat tenderizer?

Maybe he ought to buy NBC instead. Then shut it down.
That would be awesome. Buy MSNBC. First order of business: Fire Olbermann, Matthews and Maddow -- then turn it into a conservative news station.

Yes, because Lord knows, it's not as if there's ALREADY a conservative news station...

I gave up all professional sports. And it only means more time at the gun range.......that is only a good thing ;-)

What, next time you fire a gun you won't shoot yourself in the foot, you brave, brave man??

Might be blessing in disguise-— we wouldn’t want Rush too involved with NFL ownership and diverting from his talents with broadcasting at this critical time in our history.

Oh, so right--we need Rush so badly right now. Yeah, like we need a headache.

Someone should start a boycott the nfl site and campaign. Then maybe protest at NFL games outside stadiums. I’m done with the NFL for good.

Uh, guys, didn't you all swear off football after NBC forced you to watch Olbermann in the studio on Sunday nights? I could've sworn you all said back then that you would never watch a football show on which he was allowed to spew his liberal viewpoints (which he never has, by the way)

Football will be harder but I am prepared to give it up. Maybe I will spend more time at church and on the internet where my time is productive.

On the internet where your time is productive? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA...how much do you get paid for posting wingnut crap on blogs??

Marxism in action!

Yeah, 'cuz it's a well-known fact, Marx HATED football. He thought it was the opiate of the masses.

I’d say he has a lawsuit - reverse racism.

Based on what? BWAHAHAHAHA!

I am sent them an email too. told them I am done with watching games, purchasing merchandise, going to games, and following teams.

Oh, THAT'LL show them.

I will not bow down to Al Sharpton and Keith Olbermann types.

Um, for the record, KO had no problem with Rush buying a team--he said if the NFL kicked out all the conservative wingnut team owners, there would be no team owners left.

He will find a much better sports team investment in one of the Redder States, less risk, and much better returns.

Yeah, because teams in red states win more. Sure.

The only positive in all of this is many have drawn lines that can’t be taken back.
It’s time for football fans to realize it’s not just about the game. Our freedoms are under attack.

Yeah, because Rush Limbaugh isn't going to own part of a sports team. The right to own a sports team is what our forefathers died for!

Yes, I’m already boycotting the sodas

From now on, he will drink only booze. A dirty job but somebody's gotta do it.

— will back nothing in NFL — the players may be overwhelmingly black but who’s buying the tickets????? hmmm???

Oh, so right!!!! Who is paying for the labors of these n-----s anyway? Who is signing the checks? WHITE PEOPLE, of course! So get back in your damn place, slaves!!!!

26. This is HUGH!!!1!!!

Alert the media!!

[smoogatz]

27. What's implicit in their replies: conservatives=racists.

Limbaugh's being shut out of NFL ownership because the league ownership and the player's union believes he's a virulent racist. To the freeptards, his views are mainstream conservative dogma--they talk about him like he's some kind of messiah/general. They insist that by closing out a racist, the NFL is discriminating against all conservatives. Ergo, in their view, all conservatives are racist.

28. 'NFL kicks in big for the GOP'

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0909/27299.html#ixzz0Rc7hf8VF

NFL owners, team officials, players and coaches have overwhelmingly favored Republicans with their political contributions, according to a study released Thursday by the Center for Responsive Politics.

The report, which reviewed contributions dating back to 1989, found that combined contributions from players, owners and officials on 22 of the 32 National Football League teams have given more cash to Republicans than Democrats, and that several teams have given more than 90 percent of their contributions to the GOP.

The San Diego Chargers blew away the rest of the field with $2,455,200 in total money contributed, with most of that coming from team owner Alex Spanos, who has given more than $2 million, almost all of it to Republicans.

Talk about shooting themselves in the feet ~ :rofl:

The St. Louis Rams were the NFL’s biggest donor to Democrats, contributing $230,050, 98 percent of the team’s total.

if a bunch of freeper types quit buying sodas, NFL merchandise, and tickets. Oh yes, and "FOLLOWING" teams. WHOA! Hit them were it hurts! How many freepers actually can afford NFL tickets, one has to wonder?

[Missy Vixen]

45. Oooh. A couple of thousand boycotting the NFL will surely bring it to its knees

:eyes:

In the meantime, it'll only be a matter of time (I'm thinking Sunday morning, myself,) till they're at the local bar watching the game. After all, it's on someone else's TV, isn't it?

The vast majority will support the NFL's stance on telling Limbaugh to take it elsewhere.

[ecstatic]

48. After reading that, I'm almost positive that FR is full of reverse trolls--

people pretending to be republican for kicks. That can't be real.
