Report: George Soros part of Checketts group, too

Maybe Dave Checketts really doesn't want to buy the St. Louis Rams.

Why else would he have included both Rush Limbaugh and, reportedly, George Soros in the group cobbling together the money to make the purchase?

If, after all, Limbaugh is not eligible to become part owner of a team due to polarizing and divisive comments, Soros' comparison of the Bush administration to the Nazi regime arguably merits that same outcome.

But, per Bloomberg.com, Soros is part of the Checketts group, too.

Bottom line? Checketts should have done more homework before piecing together his investment group. All he needed to do was call the league office or maybe a few owners to get a feel for whether this kind of thing would fly.

1. FFS. Last time I looked, Soros wasn't a media personality who "entertains" by

race-baiting.

Am I mistaken?

2. No there's no equivalency here at all but ...

that won't stop the lunatic right from crying about how persecuted they are.

Rush was rejected because of his past racially divisive statements not because he's a Republican.
