There are those who say this thread is of a political nature and as such, my comments don't have a place on a "sports" related forum. I say Politics DO have a place in sports and it is evident by the decision of the NFL and Mr. zero tolerance himself - Roger Goddell.

Nonsense.

Rush wasn't excluded because of his political beliefs - conservatives make up most of the NFL's current ownership - but because his job requires him to be provocative and controversial. Not exactly what the image-conscious NFL wants in a minority partner.

All the posturing from Rush and his defenders is just that.
