Trailing Fox, ESPN should hurry to kill Rush segments

[trumad]

<snip>
But at 120 minutes, this show is a cosmic landfill, and that's before Rush Limbaugh is heaved into the rubbish.

Limbaugh is an after-the-fact, know-it-all expert. Actually, he has a history of ignoring the facts, or changing them. In Week 2, for instance, Limbaugh intoned, "We spend way too much time talking about Martz and way too much time talking about the Rams. They've never been to the Super Bowl with Martz."

Uh, they have.

I'm not saying Limbaugh doesn't create a commotion with his "challenges." He does -- much the same way there'd be a commotion if the village idiot ran into the middle of the town square and shouted, "The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!"

(I do find it curious where Limbaugh is situated on the pregame. You know when you go to Thanksgiving dinner and there's not enough room at the main table so they put the kids and distant relatives at the little table? They've got Rush at the little table!)

Meanwhile, if Limbaugh's weekly "Sunday Rush" commentary were any more pedestrian, he'd have to deliver it from a crosswalk.<snip>

2. Me, too

I won't allow that rubbish on my TV pre-game until that lardass is gone for good. I'd rather watch the various coaches' shows on Directv.

And with Sterling Sharpe gone from the show, replaced by the drug toting moron Irvin, the show's credibility with me is crap.

NFL Countdown used to be a mainstay in our home. That's gone and so am I.
