[QUOTE="TechGrrl, post: 617823, member: 4932"] 24 of 32 team owners have to vote "yes" to approve any new owners. In spite of the fact that 31 of the 32 teams are owned by rich, generally conservative, white billionaires, it is unlikely that they would vote to let Mr. Limbaugh become a distraction and possibly cause less money to flow into their pockets. It's all about the benjamins...this is free enterprise and capitalism at it's finest: they choose to maximize their profits while minimizing their hassles. Since it is THEIR club, THEY get to set the rules. The NFL has so many rules about behavior and whatnot, it's like a boy scout troop. Vick and Burress and the other dudes who run afoul of the rules get slapped down pretty hard because the league doesn't want to scare the paying customers away. For those who don't know this, the 32nd team is publicly owned. I'm assuming the President and CEO of that team votes. [/QUOTE]
