Now Chris? Last time you were asking me about books I wrote. Who is it that you think I am??
Sports ownership for the billies isn't about $$$ it's about the enjoyment...it's a luxury item and/or ego item.
And interestingly, Sterling, is protesting the sale:
quote:
Donald Sterling's lawyer spoke with multiple outlets Thursday and said he has not signed off on any sale and that he does not want to sell. Keep in mind, if NBA lawyers have serious doubts about whether Donald Sterling's lack of cooperation would scuttle the sale to Ballmer, the league would have to proceed with the vote and sell the team itself -- at the risk of legal action.

Of course the trust has tried to have him declared incapacitated/incompetent, but he's fighting that, too.
But, in sum, those that suggested the money wasn't what he wanted, were correct.

If he wanted to sell for profit , he wouldn't have had to be forced into it. Clippers have never been hotter, and everyone knew that.

The bigger winner in all this is Sterling's wife, not him.
