Rush interview about playing golf and basketball (What pain?)

[displacedtexan]

The interview transcript below is from a site. Rush’s “pain” obviously hasn’t kept him from playing either golf or basketball.


AMERICAN CENTURY CHAMPIONSHIP
July 17, 2003
Pre Round
An interview with:
RUSH LIMBAUGH

Q. How did your game go today?
RUSH LIMBAUGH: Well, this is the third day I've played this week, and it was -- this is nothing to write home about. Last four holes, maybe, I played like I'm capable of. But I was doing things today that I haven't done in two years, topping drives and a number of other things.
(snip)

RUSH LIMBAUGH: You know, I've played the Bob Hope three times and the AT&T twice.
(snip)

Q. Did you ever want to be an athlete?
RUSH LIMBAUGH: Oh, who doesn't? I played little league basketball. You know, on Tuesday afternoon, I played with Mark McGwire. Yesterday I played with Pierre LaRouche, Mario Lemieux and Mark Rypien. I felt like an absolute dork. These guys are hitting the ball 330 yards up here in this air. I'm lucky to hit it 240...

1. He must play better when he's high

if he's "topping the ball and doing things he hasn't done for years."

2. His statement spins a tall tale by omission

His statement makes it sound like he is only addicted to drugs that are prescribed to him (Elvis, you know about that); not that the drugs he uses are illegally purchased at the Denny's parking lot.

3. Yeah, with golf "you really see what a person's made of"

Yep. When I think grueling sports, I think golf. I mean football couldn't even begin to compare. Nor could hoops.

What a little sissy Limpballs is.

4. Wouldn't ya love to see Pig boy play little soccer?

All that running, no rest, some good solid hits, no pads?

[Wickerman]

5. "severe pain in my lower back"

as reported on the CNN website where they, like everyone else, has his statement. Fuck his severe pain in his lower back and his herniated dics.

Paul Wellstone not only had a severely damaged back but also had painful cramping of muscles due to MS. He didn't have to resort to black market pain killers. He was a strong man with soul, no a Pig Boy like Rush.

6. Well, this has got to cause backpain.

7. that is great!

rush isn't sorry he did it; he's just sorry he got caught.

8. A "dittohead". Maybe now they can come up for air.
