For the Record: I quit watching the NFL because of Rush Limbaugh
Once Rush became a commentator, my favorite spectator sport lost its appeal for me. I don't want to be associated with that goon in any way, shape or form.

Anyone else?

3. I'm losting a lot of interest, that being one of the reasons
but also because I'm starting to find it takes up too much time and money in general.

4. I'll be damned if I'll ever watch that fat ass rant
But I'm not missing football. The mute button and the channel selector will keep my living room freep free. Oh yeah, I'll also boycott anybody that advertises during the Limbaugh rants.
Go Packers!
How about some "Limbaugh Sucks" posters to be held up during faux football broadcasts? Right behind the goal post during a field goal, or extra point attempt would sure get a lot of attention.

5. Nope.
To me, that would be like not listening to any radio stations because he's on the air.

I'm down to only CBS pre-game though, I can't stand Faux, and I don't watch to her what Libaugh has to say. (I can't miss Berman in the PM though)!

6. You can talk me into it
My Jets ain't doing so good, looks like another draft pick year. Michigan stomped Notre Dame though, Woo Hoo!

Isn't Blubberbutt on ESPN? I don't have cable, so if he is I can't see him anyway. But to tell the truth I was losing interest Football. For me it was just an excuse to hang out and drink beer. I've lost my taste for beer and apparantly Football as well.

I was a big Baseball fan until the thieving owners (Led by who else?) kicked out Fay Vincent and installed their own crony Commissioner. Haven't been to single game since. So boycotting a professional sport is nothing new to me.
