Major Auto Dealer, Who Has Been Longtime K.C. Chiefs Season Ticket Holder, Gives Up on NFL Over Treatment of Limbaugh

(CNSNews.com) – Mark Muller -- a husband, father, businessman, and football fanatic -- is giving up on the game he loves, he said, because the National Football League let him down.

Muller, a fan of conservative talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh, said he will never attend another NFL game, because the league did not stand up for Limbaugh when Limbaugh's recent attempt to purchase part of the St. Louis Rams’ franchise came under fire from critics.

Muller, a Kansas City Chiefs season ticket holder since the 1980s, said the NFL’s refusal to defend Limbaugh’s right to try to participate in the bidding was disgraceful. He told CNSNews.com that, to him, the league’s “silence was deafening,” and what for him was once a passion has now been ruined.
