Rush resigns from ESPN
The conservative commentator gave up his job as an ESPN sports analyst late Wednesday, three days after saying on the sports network's "Sunday NFL Countdown" that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed.

Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
even though rush limbaugh said he was talking about the buisness aspect of it , i think he is a little racist. i am glad to see him resign.
Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
Lol.. Rush is an idiot he's not a racist. Err. I don't think so anyway. He was just talking his dumb talk like he always does, expressing his opinions.
Now if you want to see someone who really got in trouble for talking smack about Black people check out Jimmy the Greek

Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
Ha ha...Jimmy, I met one of his nephews...boy characters those people...LOL.
Rush got some problems with diarrhea of the lips. But remember, this cat has a nationwide syndicated Radio show that plays in most markets. Whatever you think of his ideology, he HAS AVID LISTENERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY that think and talk just like him. I've never booked radio spots on his show, most major advertisers don't want to be affiliated with him in any way, but there still are others that "roll" with Rush Limbaugh. I know it's a free country, free speech and all...but this cat is just like Bill O'Reilly. They have their opinions, but won't listen or debate fully with anyone else about them. To them, their opinion should be law, their opinion is what they view as the truth.
Anyways, Rush and Bill are a bunch of crybabys. Except they have a national vehicle to cry on.

BIG DUSTY, true that, true that! I didn't even trip about the John Rocker situation a few years ago and I ain't trippin now.

Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
Rush Limbaugh is a piece of shyt (you can not cuss right?). He is one of those republicans that will hang a black man the first chance he gets. Don't get it twisted, whoever hired him at ESPN is a piece of shyt too.

Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
I just wish that McNabb coulda won the super bowl to REALLY let Limbaugh know how stupid he is.
Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
He certainly has returned to his radio show and his tirades quickly as if his opiate addiction, the drug ring scandal, and every other hypocrytical thing he has done never even happened. He has done a great job in downplaying and ignoring the horrid things. Nothing was really known about most of this when this thread was created. It's been amazing watching all the hypocrisy come to the light. What's not surprising is his reaction to it.
Re: Rush resigns from ESPN
maybe he had rasonable information to say that? maybe he was right? | im not rascist im just tryin to think there might be a reason why he said that|alonso wrote:The conservative commentator gave up his job as an ESPN sports analyst late Wednesday, three days after saying on the sports network's "Sunday NFL Countdown" that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed.
