I must say that the plaintive wails rising like swamp gas from Rush Limbaugh over his failure to gain entry into locker rooms containing men who are larger and sweatier than himself caught me by surprise. I figured that a man who has had three wives walk on him and now has to travel all the way to the Dominican Republic to buy a chemically enhanced handjob would have more than a passing acquaintance with rejection.
Fortunately various Rush minions have Rush’s back pilondial side.
Hitherto unknown blogger Jeff Veyera, who goes by the butchier-sounding “teflon” (like teflon bullets or maybe a teflon skillet… OF DEATH!!), proposes an NFL boycott up to and including shredding those official NFL jerseys that fans like to wear because they think strangers and women in bars will mistake them for Jevon Kearse who looks just like a short, fat and balding white accountant.
Sez Jefflon:
Since Roger Goodell wants to bend over for Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the other bigots and race-baiters among the sportswriter community by shafting Rush Limbaugh, we ought to return the favor by punting the NFL this season.
I have cancelled my DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket package (including the Supercast). I will not watch ONE MINUTE of NFL games or coverage this season—including the Super Bowl.
And I challenge you to join me.
Let’s show Roger Goodell who REALLY runs the NFL—the fans.
U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! Besides, who wants to watch New England/Indianapolis when you can get back-to-back episodes of the The Rachel Zoe Project? Not me. Fuckin’ A. High-five! Aaaa-ooo!
To ease the transition Jeff has set up a manly-man Facebook page Guys Who Like Big Fucking Tits Punt The NFL where guys (86 of them and growing) can get together online and cyberslap each other on the ass (in a strictly heterosexual way) for not watching NFL games and totally not peeking at the score crawl on ESPN because THEY JUST DON’T CARE ANYMORE.
Totally gonna happen.

lol. From the “Wall” at Facebook:
The “KC RAMS” will certainly regret not having you as a fan, Tim. Is that a semi-pro team or something?
Mr. Goodell’s extremely offensive remarks? And, he’s been (presumably) watching the NFL lo all these years without Rush’s bloated jowls blocking the teevee machine, so WTF?
Furthermore, you cannot haz a second fave team if you don’t even know their proper name! (Yes, I’m echoing Singularity’s point. Sue me.
Wah the motherfucking wah.
This is the
geniusstupidity of the innnertoobz.Every whiny wankers’ thoughts are magnified way beyond proportion.
Good luck with that NFL boycott, fuckface. Seems like many of the commenters either don’t like football or have losing teams they don’t support anymore anyway. As for the rest, most will be sitting on their fat asses on the Lay-z-boy on a crisp Sunday afternoon this fall watching Spongebob Squarepants thinking “what the fuck?!” before flipping back to ESPN.
The final tally wil be negligible, and Jeff Veyera will return to obscurity.
“In a surprise move today, the NFL owners association relented under withering fire from Rush Limbaugh supporters agreeing to allow the radio “shock jock” to buy interest in the
KCSt Louis Rams.”“In related news, the NFL players association announced a league-wide strike in response to the owner’s decision.”
Hey, people, this is all about Freedom of Speech and the evil liberals of the NFL trying to stifle same. Our forefathers died at Lexington and Yorktown so that obese assholes would have the right to buy football teams.
“…an, an, an, I’m gonna’ throw alla’ my NFL bobblyheads on the floor and stomp on ‘em an, an, an, I’m gonna’ tell ESPN to cancel Mondays an I’m gonna paint NFL SUX right on the side of the trailer house…”
I think that it’s safe to add “A tearful apology from Roger Goodell,” to the long list of things Veyera will never get.
That “We are all Rush Limbaugh now” article–I read it. It was absolutely hilarious, and the comments were simply more of the same. Tears running down my face, shaking with laughter. It’s still (8:00 AM Central) top of the rec list at Red Ass State.
Of course, it has the obligatory Niemoeller quote-”first they came for…” but that quote needs to be updated for the modern era of conservatives being denied access to a private financial transaction=nazism, so here goes:
This was the closest poor Limbaugh was ever gonna get to owning black people, and now he can’t. It all started with that liberal commie, Lincoln, and it’s been constant white sacrifice and deprivation ever since.
If “We are all Rush Limbaugh now” we are all in need of long term, expensive therapy. Oh, also, too, we need to lose some weight.
I’m sure that Roger Goodell and the NFL owners are quivering in fear at the prospect of losing tens of fans to the Red State boycott.
Yet another masterstroke brought to you by the vaunted Red State Trike Force of FAIL.
I love Wolcott’s money quote from Bloomberg: “With debt service headed for a 45 percent jump in 2009 from three years earlier and revenue growth slowing the recession, owners’ profits are falling.”
Maybe the owners oughta take Limbaugh’s cash anyway. Rush clearly is a financial genius.
Oh fercrissakes, NFL boycott? The Steelers have a waiting list for season tickets a mile long. So all you dittoheads pull your names off that list and the Libs will be glad to buy those tickets, if/when they become available. Steeler tickets are passed down in families; they are included in wills in Pittsburgh. My family has had 4 tickets since 1968.
TBogg, have you ever actually watched The Rachel Zoe Project? It is one of the funniest damn reality shows evah. If you have any doubt that the people in the fashion industry are the most vapid, shallow idiots in the world (next to dittoheads of course) watch Rachel.
Sooooo, just to recap, real ‘Muricans root for Brazil over the US to get the Olympics, anyone but an American to win the Nobel Peace Prize, and for the quintessential American invented game to collapse. If the owner’s consortium replaces the Great Monkeytail with, say, an entreprenuer who owns a company that makes US flags, or an heir of the Winchester or Colt families, do we then burn all said flags and throw our guns into the pond out back to protest the wronging of Linguini Dick?
This is all very confusing. I suggest all true teabag patriots bury their heads beneath their matching NASCAR sheets and comforters and wait for the rapture. Or at least till Mom knocks on the basement door and lets them know the Spaghettios are ready. Then it will be all better.
I’ve heard there’s a report in next month’s Paris Business Review about how the league’s profits are nosediving as a result of this groundswell of anti-football sentiment.
You got the money quote right there. Congratulations.
I see that most of that site is taken up by an argument between Veyera and a guy named Ty Cassidy.
why doesn’t he start his own league he loves football that much? He’s got money – hell it’s the america way – The AFL and Joe Namath and all that?
So Rushbo finds out what it’s like to be rejected by a club that’s richer and more successful than he’ll ever hope to be, and he responds by throwing a little girl hissy fit? And his minions that don’t follow and/or understand football join him in his pants-wetting tirade? Ditka wept.
I agree with Hatmandu Johnson. Or maybe Obama ought to sponsor a NASCAR team with his Nobel Peace Prize money. Then all those true patriots who put their “ideals” ahead of reality might have to spend their Sundays in CHURCH! AAAHHHHH!
If we can only get George Soros to buy a franchise, maybe it would clear the stadiums and sports bars of noxious dickheads once and for all.
I know! We’ll get the Commissioner of the NFL’s address and mail him
teabags….No, wait….
Bags of rock salt….No, wait….
What are we mailing this week…?

From Allahpundit: “An interesting point from the comments: If he’s serious about suing for defamation over the false racist quotes attributed to him, he’s now got a claim for damages. Still a tough suit to win but that’s an extra little carrot.”
God I would love to see Rush take on the suits at the NFL:
“Now Mr. Limbaugh, we have these pictures taken on your last visit to The Dominican Republican…can you confirm that’s you in the picture with what appears to be an underage minor?”
Has he included a link to the Meghan McCain Twitter fiasco?

How did that work out for Cleveland Browns fans back in 1996?
Sez Jefflon:
Since Roger Goodell wants to bend over for Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the other bigots and race-baiters…
Why do these tough, ass-kicking, republicans always go right to the gay sex image?
Maybe he could buy the Wolverines?

Hey, whatever happened to free enterprise and “the market knows all” and “don’t mess with private property”? What do they want: government intervention to preserve Limpball’s “rights”?
Just another reason for them to go Galt. (And how did that one work out, wingnuts?)
1st comment on the wall: “I Don’t feel apart of this league anymore…”
Fuck, those people are stupid.
Linky: Waaaah
I wonder if this member of the group likes “scritches”?
Wait, liberals control the NFL? The “No Fun League”? Where they fine you if you wear the wrong colored chinstrap or if you personalize your cleats?
Did I miss a memo or something?
admit it. redstate is a spoof site secretly written by tbogg, alicublog, and sadly, no! to elicit crazoid comments from wingerland.
“Since Roger Goodell wants to bend over for Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the other bigots and race-baiters among the sportswriter community by shafting Rush Limbaugh…”
Roger Goodell is bending over for Al Sharpton et alia while “shafting” poor Rush. Now that’s an image I never wanted in my head.
I’m beginning to think that homophobia is the glue that holds right wing discourse together. Or maybe its santorum.
