Rush Limbaugh to own the Rams???
Could Rush Limbaugh buy the Rams???? That would definitely be interesting, since he is a Steelers fan.
Rush Limbaugh, the conservative talk radio host, said he would be interested in
buying the St. Louis Rams if the team were for sale. “The Rams
would be a great team to have,” Limbaugh said in a phone interview from his Palm
Beach, Fla., studio. “I have a lot of friends in ownership in the NFL, and my desire to get involved has not been a
secret.” Limbaugh grew up in Cape Girardeau but said that does not play into his
thinking about the Rams. “This is a business decision,” he said. And even for
Limbaugh, whose new eight-year syndication deal with Premiere Radio Networks is estimated to be worth
$300 million, buying into the NFL would be a stretch. “I have no debt
whatsoever. This would require changing that,” he said. “There is a whole lot of
interest in the Rams with the NFL being a business entity that a lot of people
want to be involved in. But it’s becoming a billionaires’ club.”—St Louis Business Journal
