MEQUON, Wis. (Camp Day 5/late report)
So, talk-show host Rush Limbaugh is interested in buying the Rams. If he persuades Chip Rosenbloom to sell (extremely unlikely), should we expect that:
*Al Saunders would not be permitted to make liberal use of his playbook?
*Steven Jackson would be ordered to run right only?
*The team would get a volume discount on painkillers?
*Dick Cheney would be put in charge of the shotgun formation?
*St. Louis fans never would have to worry about the team moving back to the Left Coast?
*The Melonheads of old would resurface as Dittoheads.
*Jim Haslett would get an unlimited budget to beef up the defense? (But he’d have to report to Donald Rumsfeld.)
*Marques Hagans would never, ever line up at quarterback again?
*The Rams’ most loyal fans would be known as Neocon Nation.
*The Edward Jones Dome would be renamed “Conservative Coliseum”? (Unless Al Franken purchased the naming rights, in which case it might be the “Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot Arena.”
Just wonderin’ . . .

The Steven Jackson Watch:
*Days out: 5
*Practices missed: 7
*Fine total: $75,000

Notes & quotes:
>>Newly signed DT Henry Smith was given No. 54, which normally would go to a linebacker (it’s Brandon Chillar’s old number). But because of injuries, the Rams didn’t have any jerseys left with the usual defensive lineman numbers.
>>New K Josh Brown nailed a 61-yard field goal during special-teams drills, and the wind wasn’t helping him.
>>T Orlando Pace is increasing contact incrementally. He still hasn’t taken part in the rugged one-on-one matches.
>>DT Adam Carriker, limited early in camp, appears to be full-go now.
>>It seems as if second-year WR Derek Stanley produces a head-turning catch every day. He made a leaping, twisting grab in the end zone Tuesday on the last play of practice.
>>Rookie DTs Vernon Bryant and Willie Williams have impressed with their raw strength.
>>Just visiting: John Clayton of ESPN.
>>Be sure to click here to see Chris Lee’s camp photos.
All for now . . . more Wednesday from two-a-days.
Good Morning, Mr. Chinapoop, sir.
I wasn’t aware that class was in session, so thanks for the reminder, teach.
Critique this string of words for me, will you:
I COULDN’T care less if Chinapoop dropped dead while having anal intercourse with his pet goat, named after Whoregia.
*sniff* Mom & Dad would be so proud of me…

I don’t care if Charlie Manson bought the team as long as the Rams win the Super Bowl. Get over your self righteous indignation and get your head on straight.

Rush is a parasite. He’d fit right in with Shaw & Zagnut.
Chip will sell part of the team to developers in Los Angles…where he and all his friends have always lived. There are stories in the LA papers about this fairly often. They will move back to LA.
This is a no brainer. Of course he’s told all of you the “right thing”…the things you want to hear. How else would he sell some tickets this coming season.
Brace yourselves for another poor season which is designed to erode the fan base and make leaving St. Louis easier. Why do think they kept Linehan? He’s the perfect dolt to push the plan.

To the idiot who calls himself “Ace Ventura”
First of all, it’s not “I COULD care less”, it’s “I COULDN’T care less”, you see, you’re trying to convey the absolute minimum amount of care or interest you iliterate moron. More importantly you pathetic two bit dime store piece of excrement, who the hell are you to call a deceased woman who brought her football team back to her hometown a “whore”. You should be ashamed…..I bet your parents are proud……….

I could care less who owns the Rams as long as they win. Anyone would be a breath of fresh air after all these years with Whoregia owning the team.
On a side note… sdp. Is that you, Pat? If so, long time, no see!

“Let’s quote the Rush supporter on here…
“an inexperienced skinny gangbanger says “change” and you guys wet yourselves like giddy school girls.”
Nice, very intelligent. Now please go kill your whole family and then yourself. Thanks! Idiot.

It would be wonderful to have such a great cnservative owning the Rams, he has been very successful and I am sure he would make the Rams successful as well.

Heaven forbid 2 things….
1. Rush Limbaugh curses us by becoming an owner of the Rams
2. That we would want anyone to change the course we’re on….. the war, economy, dependence on foreign oil, global warming, stem cell research.
Proud to be a thoughtful LIB!!

Bill Coats had some great questions, but he overlooked one:
Considering the reason that Rush’s football broadcasting career ended after about three weeks, would there be a team directive that the quarterbacks always be white guys?

You just gotta love the left wing “tolerance” on display here. Are some of you people so warped that you can’t separate your football fandom from your politics?
Get. A. Life.

I would not have a problem with Rush so long as he keeps the Rams in St. Louis.

Doug Nurge — If you’re too stupid to differntiate between political views and sports, then the Rams and Rush don’t need you. Maybe George Soros will buy a team, and you can root for them. Now that guy is one evil human.

Rush as an NFL Owner would never fly. With his criminal record, he would never be confirmed by the other owners. Plus, I think it would be a huge distraction off-field.

Hey Ken. He is no different than all the BS news anchors on TV every night. Not trying tomake this political as we are talking sports, but did you notice that major news agencies went with Obama to the middle East? Did you here about McCain’s last 3 trips over there?
It’s not just Rush who at times is Lupey Sanchez about his views. It’s all of the news agencies.
If this is what it takes to keep football is STL which inturn gives the city additional jobs,revenues and tax dollars than so be it.

I have long been a fan of St. Louis football, from the time the Chicago Cardinals became the St. Louis Cardinals and have never seen a reason to be otherwise. Should Limbaugh purchase the team, the time will have come.
Russ Limbaugh is an opinion and in my opinion a very low class human being. He uses a radio show to promote half truths and out right lies to support a political agenda that belittles and questions the patrotism and rights as an American for all those that disagree with any (or all) of his blather. Hyprocritcal as a human after degrading those with drug problems it was found he, himself had a drug problem and was spending thousands in many devious ways to procure and hide his buys. This man is everything that is wrong with todays politics and everything that is wrong with the KMOX’s of the world that continues to promote a message used only to provide political misinformation and lies.
I’ll not provide for the income or glory of any human floatsam such as Limbaugh even as a football fan. He has the right to ownership and I have the right to tell him to put it where the sun doesn’t shine.

Rush is a Missouri native. If him buying the team would keep them in the STL, then I would be all for it.

BEEN A RAM FAN SINCE 1967. IF RUSH BECOMES OWNER WILL HAVE TO THINK ABOUT FINDING A NEW TEAM. AT LEAST WHILE HE’S THE OWNER. CANT STAND THE MAN.
