NEW YORK — Political commentator Rush Limbaugh (search) tried to put one controversy behind him Wednesday, resigning from ESPN's "Sunday NFL Countdown" after a firestorm erupted over his comments concerning Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb (search) and the media.

But Limbaugh now finds himself staring at a new, more serious flap: allegations that he illegally obtained and abused prescription painkillers in Florida.

The New York Daily News, without identifying its source, reported in Thursday editions that Limbaugh was being investigated by the Palm Beach County (search) state attorney's office. The newspaper said it had independently confirmed the allegations, first reported by the supermarket tabloid National Enquirer.
