Rush Limbaugh alert: NFL a battle of gang-bangers; golf still Ok
Bet he's pissed that two African-American head coaches are in the Super Bowl and that his beloved Steelers hired an African-American head coach.

"Look, let me put it to you this way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it," said Limbaugh on his show recently.

Limbaugh, who never met a marriage he wouldn't end in divorce, apparently has come to the belief that there are dangerous social and cultural elements emanating from the NFL, apparently in the form of doo-rags and tattoos.

Just something to remember from Limbaugh: If you get hooked on pills, can't stay married to save your life, and like to pump your penis full of Viagra prior to trips to the Dominican Republic, you're cool. Wear a doo rag and taunt opponents during a game of professional football, well, you're representing a gang and are part of the decay of modern society.

Luckily for long-time Limbaugh loyalist and TravelGolf.com writer Chris Baldwin, Limbaugh apparently has no such concerns over golf.

3. Please don't say the Steeler's are Rush's team.
He is no Steeler.

Being a Steeler fan - is more a state of mind - one he can never, ever have.

Tomlin is a good choice. I think it is with the character of my team to stay in a defensive state of mind.

You know the Rooney's pushed hard for minority hires in head coaches. But I'll tell you true - they didn't pick him for any other reason then they know he will win.

I think Mr Limbaugh knows just as much about football as he does politics - not much.

4. Just can't hold the racism in when there's too much oxycontin in the system?
Go Bears!
