Rush Limbaugh to Buy the Rams?

Group is one of three bidders.

Finally, a sports owner worthy of Marge Schott's mantle: Rush Limbaugh may be adding football team owner to his roster of controversial credits, according to Politico blogger Michael Calderone. Three groups have reportedly submitted bids for the St. Louis Rams, and the Limbaugh Group is one of them. The last time Rush made big sports headlines was when he stepped down from his role as an ESPN commentator in 2003 after claiming that Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb’s popularity with the media was because he’s black. Seventy-five percent of the current league owners must approve the winning bidder, and keeping the team in St. Louis is a stipulation of the sale.
