Rush Limbaugh Bids to Buy NFL Franchise

6 October 2009 346 views No Comment

The St. Louis Rams have moved from shopping the team to evaluating bids and Premiere Radio Network talker Rush Limbaugh has confirmed that he has an offer on the table to buy the NFL franchise.  In a statement issued to his St. Louis affiliate KMOX, Limbaugh acknowledged that he and St. Louis Blues owner Dave Checketts are trying to buy the team. “Dave and I are part of a bid to buy the Rams and we are continuing the process,” the statement says. “But I can say no more because of a confidentiality clause in our agreement with Goldman Sachs.  We cannot and will not talk about our partners.  But if we prevail we will be the operators of the team.” A Missouri native and an avid football fan who had a short-lived stint as the third person in the booth on Monday Night Football, Limbaugh was first reported to be interested in buying the Rams in May.
