Rush Limbaugh was dropped from the list of a group hoping to purchase the St. Louis Rams football team Wednesday due to fears the polarizing right wing media pundit would have jeopardized the group's chances of acquiring the struggling team.

Dave Checketts, the chairman of hockey's St. Louis Blues and a member of the group, issued a statement Wednesday making Limbaugh's ouster official.

"It has become clear that his involvement in our group has become a complication and a distraction to our intentions, endangering our bid to keep the team in St. Louis," Checketts said. "As such, we have decided to move forward without him and hope it will eventually lead us to a successful conclusion."

An irritated Limbaugh, in response, said his political beliefs had put him out of the equation.

Said Limbaugh on his broadcast Wednesday: "This is not about the NFL. It's not about the St. Louis Rams. It's not about me. This is about the ongoing effort by the left in this country, wherever you find them, in the media, the Democratic party, or wherever, to destroy conservatism, to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a conservative."

I think the only reason he wanted to buy in to the Rams is to be closer to an Oxycontin dealer and/or drugs ... anyone but ME remember that whole drug CRIME he went through a few years back, but never saw any trial/jail time!?

Hurray! Now if we could just drop this talking bubblehead off on an ice float somewhere! Expressing a different opinion is the American way. But the things he says are so far over the top that he loses all his credibity. Fool not to realize this

Rush is being treated unfairly. Look into words spoken and deeds done by those ball players. They should all be prohibited from playing. Kids, especially boys, are given bad ideas as to accepted actions in the USA by these players.

Most important reason for him not to be team owner is he's so divisive. He doesn't bring people together thru compromise. Lots of thugs in professional athletic world and for that he's right. He's also racist.
