No secret I don't like Rush, at all. Either his political opinions or what I hear of the man himself. Basically, he is one big hypocrite who is smart enough capitalize on conservative foolishness. (Palin is now drinking at the same fountain.)
Neither do I like -- are you standing bareheaded in respect? -- Political Correctness. Didn't like it when Jimmy the Greek or Howard Cosell were kicked out of broadcasting. Didn't like it when what's his name was kicked off the broadcast team for saying that Roger Staubach ran like a sissy. [See footnote] Don't like the way the Augusta National committee gets to censure free speech among golf commentators. Folks ought to be able to say what they want without being penalized for it.
Neither do I like the NFL pro football monopoly.
Far as I'm consarned, weird or eccentric ball club owners add to the color of the sport. Al Davis was okey-doke wid me. Even George W. back when he was posing as front office man for the Rangers. (Didn't he look good in them fancy boots? Wished he'd stayed there.)
(So do weird or druggie or playboy players add to the interest in the sport. Hell, let's make up an all-convict pro football team, with convict coaches! Gotta be doing 10 to life to be eligible. Give them prisonyard weightlifters something to do with their bulk.)
A hypocritical Rx-munching, mouthy druggie like Rush would have served the sport just fine.
Will admit this. Recent pics of Rush show him to have slimmed down. Maybe it's the cocaine, or maybe he's working out. Wonder if he can swing a golf club in an arc now?
[Footnote] Well, hell, Staubach did run like a sissy. Thought it myself. You thought it too, didn't you? And Marion Morrison...pardon me...John Wayne, walked like a sissy. (Don't think I would have told him that to his face, though.) Actually, I think the Duke's problem was that that girdle was too tight. Plus those tippy cowboy boots hurt his bunions.
[Footnote to footnote.] No secret. 3/4 the stars in Hollywood got fitted with a corset for screen roles and public appearances. Which was why they often didn't take off their clothes for assignations with groupies. |
