Rush Limbaugh to appear on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown

Rush is a great communicator and a fan's fan," said ESPN executive vice president Mark Shapiro. "His acute sense of what's on the minds of listeners combined with his ability to entertain and serve as a lightning rod for lively discussion makes him the perfect fit for this new role."

This is dumber than having Dennis Miller in the booth for MNF.

Great idea, he use to be the color guy I think during the 80's for the baseball KC Royals. So he does have a sports background.

Rush will bring a huge audience that may not be there without him for Sunday night countdown.

That's uncalled for. He may be far right, but the Nazi thing is out of line IMO.

IMO he makes alot of sense. I don't listen to his radio show, other than say once a month, but I agree with him on most things, and I'm no a Nazi.

I think he could make things interesting for a pregame show for the Sunday night game. I wonder who his favorite team is. Either way, it's a hit or miss thing. He'll either be great or lousy on ESPN.

39, I wish Rush would replace Madden on MNF. I wonder why in the world Miller got the job over him in the first place. But either way, that's cool of his new job.

i never said he was a nazi....

OK you want to play technical, great. Almost a Nazi is just as offensive IMO, and uncalled for. It's like calling a liberal or Democratic radio personality almost a Communist, it's not appropriate IMO.

To each their own.

He was considered.

"Was considered for the then-vacant color analyst position on ABC's "Monday Night Football" that went to Dennis Miller."

I liked the Miller, Michaels and Fouts trio on MNF.

Thanks boo, for the link. WOW, he was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame? Being not able to hear is hard for people, but really hard for someone in radio talk. Amazing.
