Rev. Jesse Jackson joined Rev. Al Sharpton in sending a letter to the NFL that argues against Rush Limbaugh’s attempt to become part of Rams ownership. Jackson said Limbaugh made his wealth “appealing to the fears of whites’’ with insults against blacks and other minorities. This from the man who used the “N’’ word last year --- two years after he called for a public ban on that word --- and said he wanted to cut off Barack Obama’s testicles. Nice credibility, huh? . . .

You can count on Stephen A to think freely. I could care less if Limbaugh co-owns a team, but I wouldn't want to play for that team. Not saying I wouldn't play, just that I'd prefer not to.
I feel you Cuz.
I just hope this motivates the players ... the cats with the true power ... to own their own league.
It is NOT inconceivable (except to Plantation Negros).
No one pays for a game to see fat old white dudes "own" ... they pay to see these cats defy gravity and to display the most rare of commodities - talent.
Properly leveraged they could own their own league.
These cats "owning" the teams borrowed the fucking money anyway ... and leveraged it against future value.
Athletes should duplicate the model actors used when they originally created United Artists.

And how'd that work out?
For fuck sake, Denmark... talent is talent and business is business. Different skill sets.
The average playing career of an NFL athlete... 3.5 years, or so I hear. How the fuck they gon' own a fucking team? What the fuck are you talking about, DV? Do you have a job? Jesus Christ, go fuck your wife or take pictures of your kids or something besides posting this weak-ass brain-dead buuullshit.
Thank you.
Of course some yellow ass handkerchief head house negro pops in to vehemently object to the idea of men owning instead of being owned.
I've never encountered a man so hell bent on playing the slave in my life.
It worked out great for Tom Cruise. It worked out great for Will Smith. They sell their talent to whomever they wish without ownership.
Why cannot Chad Ochocinco? Why not Mark Sanchez?
Since you've bent over backwards to mention wives and children ...
Do you have either?
Can your little radiated peter-bug still make children? Can it still have sex with women that you don't have to pay afterwards?
Want to be a slave Negro? Be one. But put some panties on the hatred of cats who dare not.
And put a bra on them titties too fat boy.
... to vehemently object to the idea of men owning instead of being owned.
What I object to, Oh Ye Who Hides In Anonymity, is you acting like you all deep and shit... when most of what you say you've either ripped from fringe/quack/lunatic websites or, like this athletes-owning-teams shit, has been talked to death by gum-beating Negroes for decades in college dorm rooms from sea to shining sea.
If it was in them to own shit, they'd own shit. What the fuck is stopping them? You think all they need is some encouragement from your dumb ass? What you own??
I own me ... Undercover Black Man.
Which is more than you can say.
Now look Negro. Aint nobody got a gun to your head. You don't have to come here every day.
But you do.
Every.
Day,
Punk.
Mutha.
Fucka.
Because there is something here you want.
So quit being a bitch about it. And enjoy it. Learn from it. Use it. Share it. Embrace it. Run with it.
Now. Personally.
As far as I'm concerned. You are more than welcome.
I enjoy the discourse.
I enjoy the challenge.
I think you are a hell of a writer and an interesting cat.
But this little periodic hissy fit you pull every few weeks is motivated by something other than ideological disagreement.
You resentful. I bother you. My disdain for the massa you love so much gets under your skin.
You've spent your entire life trying to get up in the big house. Now you sleeping at the foot of massa's bed only to learn there are black men wouldn't trade places with you if their lives depended on it.
Now. With that said. If you want to play straight Plantation. We can do that too. I'll put what I own and what my family owns and what my children will own up against what you own any day of the week.
I'll open with a 104 acres of virgin Central American rain forest.
CAN SOMEONE APPLY SOME "JOURNALIST DISCIPLINE" AND VALIDATE THE SOURCE OF THE COMMENTS?
* I watched Good Morning America
* I watched CNN
* I listened to Limbaugh today as he played several sound clips of people repeating the same Slavery statement that was attributed to him.
HE denied saying it and then provided the source of the fabricated statements. There are NO FOOTNOTES in this published book as to the exact show date and time in which this was said.
As much as "racist" Fox News is purported to make news up - it appears that MSNBC (especially) and CNN are guilty of this.
Just because one quote appears on hundreds of web sites DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT IS TRUE. One person posted it and it spread in a viral manner.
CAN SOMEONE SOURCE THE QUOTE?
Steven A. would have impressed me and been much more honest if he said that the focus on Jesse, Al, and the players is rather misplaced. If Rush doesn't get to own a team it will be the result of the WHITE owners' refusal.
The real tension depicted in this episode is intraracial, between white people themselves - just like the last election.
From what I've heard Rush is not even a college graduate. He makes his money espousing a form of gangster rap for middle aged white working class men. Like Thomas Sutpen, Rush now stands in defiance of a tradition which excludes him.
In many ways the NFL is the most conservative of major league sports. Many of the Jews who became basketball franchise owners in the Sixties and Seventies did so because the NFL resricted Jewish ownership. Of the big three, NFL ownership has the greatest leverage over labor. The elites who comprise ownership are as enchanted with Rush as they were with Sara Palin. They may speak with a southern or western twang and wear denim but they don't consider themselves hoi polloi.
I'm sure the overwhelming majority of owners share Rush's views. (A couple of months ago Rachel Maddow displayed statistics documenting that NFL owners contribute only the tiniest fraction of money to Democrats.) And of course they belong to all white clubs. But that doesn't mean they want to be conspicuous or bombastic about it. It makes for an odd combination when you have Rush denigrating black KIDS(!) and NFL propaganda showing players coddling with those same black kids.
The contradiction, therefore, is Rush himself. This ostensible palladin of the white working class desires membership in a most exclusive club. And the conflict isn't with black people trying to keep him out but white people of means who won't let him in. Don't allow yourselves to be misled by the surface narrative.
No one is really a fan of Rush especially in one of the most integrated American pastimes.
