is Rush Lumbaugh doing on ESPN's NFL Countdown? Is he a regular now? Michael Irvin needs to calm down. I like how Steve shoots back at him. He told Mike he needed to go home and look up a word. I can't remember what the word was.

Some of Rush Limbaugh's greatest moments:
--He offered this theory as to why Salvador Garcia, a Mexican, won the 1991 New York City Marathon: "an immigration agent chased him for the last 10 miles."
--He told an African-American radio-show caller, "take that bone out of your nose and call me back."
--He said, "the NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."
--In response to a caller suggesting that black Americans need to be heard, he responded, "they are 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares?"
--He played the Jeffersons theme whenever discussing Carole Mosley-Braun, the first African-American woman elected to the U.S. Senate.
--He said, "have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"
Seems to me like Jimmy the Greek got fired for saying a lot less than that. I guess this tells you something about where our country is right now.

Great. Very relaxing. I was running around looking for a damn computer with an internet connection so I could get my hR fix under control. Only after we checked out did I discover that they had a computer room for guest at the resort.

Michael Irvin needs to calm the he11 down. He is way to excited on that show. I thought Steve Yound and Mike were going to come to blows over the Brett Favre/Daunte Culpepper issue. I keep thinking I am watching the Fox pregame anymore.

Sound clips like that don't exist on the Internet, not even at Rush's site. They are easily checked, however, and Rush doesn't deny saying them. He just denies that they are important.
The post was about Rush on ESPN. That's football. Whether Rush is any good at football or belongs on the ESPN show is a legitimate topic for this forum. A more thorough discussion of Mr Limbaugh's political views would belong in the Potomac.

Yeah that was funny...
it was said when Rush said he had 3 or 4!!! challenges andthey got into a discussion on those challenges.
I did not see that about Young and Irvin though...I wish I did.
I don't know why more of you guys aren't up in arms about this guy. He is a COKE ADDICT, and history of legal problems....he's all tweeked out on national television!!! Why is he even on the damn show...he's terrible!
Spence...don't forget Howard Cosell got fired for less too...ruined his career!
Quite frankly I'm shocked to read some of those...how has this guy not been black balled?

I'll never be able to figure out why they brought a damn political commentator on the show.

Me neither. What they thought would be the advantages are beyond me at this juncture. I guess it didn't occur to them that those that didn't share his political views would possibly be turned off by his inclusion.

Even if I did, I wouldn't want them on a sports show. I wouldn't want someone who said exactly what I wanted to hear when it comes to politics on NFL Countdown.
