If there’s one thing we should be worried about in this world it’s the “chickifying” of football

According to Rush everyone’s ruining the game of football by denouncing domestic violence:
“Folks, … this is crazy,” Rush Limbaugh said on the Friday edition of his successful radio talk show. “We’re feminizing this game, and it’s a man’s game, and if we keep feminizing this game, we’re going to ruin it; if we keep ‘chickifying’ this game, we’re going to ruin it. It’s going to become something that it was never intended to be.”
Limbaugh’s worry came in response to the growing demands for introspection being directed toward the NFL in the wake of the public release of video showing Ray Rice assaulting his partner. “So many men — executive in the league, and sports [media] — are in a race to see who can be the most politically correct, feminized guy,” Limbaugh said. “It’s comical.”
Seriously, what kind of a real man doesn’t knock out his girlfriend in an elevator once in a while, amirite? And the fact that he didn’t even seem to be slightly concerned about the fact that she was unconscious just further proves his manliness. He dragged her out of the elevator didn’t he? What more do these feminazis want?
I honestly don’t know what it will take for decent people to reject Rush LImbaugh, but you would think that any decent person would find these comments beyond the pale. It’s fair to assume that anyone who doesn’t isn’t a decent person.
