Al Sharpton Calls on NFL to Block Rush Limbaugh from Buying the Rams

I can't believe I'm about to say this: I absolutely agree with Al on this one. Al Sharpton wrote a letter to the NFL commissioner urging him to block Limbaugh from buying the St Louis Rams. Why you ask?

Sharpton argued that Limbaugh has been “anti-NFL” in his comments about several of the league’s players, specifically naming Philadelphia Eagles quarterbacks Michael Vick and Donovan McNabb. Limbaugh sparked controversy several years ago by contending that the media want McNabb to succeed simply because he is black.

In addition, Sharpton wrote that Limbaugh’s “recent statement — that the NFL was beginning to look like a fight between the Crips and the Bloods without the weapons — was disturbing.”

Exactly. Al call if you need me to march.
