How is Sterling any different than slave owners from 200 years ago?

My response was to someone who said that Sterling can't be a racist because he has a Black girlfriend. My point is that even the most virulently racist men don't discriminate when it comes to poon. Strom Thurmond screwing Black women when he was leading the Dixicrat party.

When the players reject payment from Mr. Sterling / Clippers ... then I'll be impressed with their hardline, principled response.

This is exactly what I thought the other day. Sterling is a racist devil, but I still want that racist devils money!

How many slave masters screwed their house slaves?
Really, if you think about it, he's sort of the original prototype. He's all good with "using" blacks. He appears to hold them in roughly the same regard some middle eastern cultures hold women. They exist for his amusement but they aren't his equals. He's ok having her as a GF and OK with her screwing others because he doesn't view her as anything more really than a piece of meat that he effectively was able to "buy".

Reminds me of a former Jehovah Witness co-worker that didn't celebrate certain holidays because of his religious beliefs. On one such holiday, the boss asked him to come in to catch up on some projects that needed handling since he didn't celebrate the day. He was besides himself with outrage and demanded to have the day off with pay.

One would think that we could all agree that the GF is a POS bitch.

Some interesting points from one of Sports Illustrated legal experts.

In addition to concern about proper interpretation of the relevant language, some owners may worry about the prospect that Sterling will sue. Sterling, an attorney, is regarded as one of the most litigious owners in professional sports. If there is one owner who would sue over expulsion, it's probably him. Sterling could seek a court injunction preventing the NBA from expelling him. Such a move would likely happen immediately after he is voted out. He could also file a lawsuit raising breach of contract and antitrust claims.
quote:
The prospect of Sterling suing could be a source of worry to NBA owners for at least three reasons:
1. Sterling suing over franchise ouster could undermine the lifetime ban. The ban is intended to separate Sterling from the Clippers and the NBA, and as discussed above, Sterling likely has no viable case against it. If, however, Sterling sues over franchise ouster, it would be a high-profile lawsuit and he would remain in the news. Whatever distancing of Sterling is achieved through a ban could be lost in a high-profile case. It is also a case that could last years, as antitrust cases often do.
2. Sterling suing may lead to pretrial discovery, which could be designed in part to embarrass other owners and NBA officials of any bigoted remarks or beliefs on their part. Keep in mind, if Sterling is ousted because of racism, he would likely demand that evidence showing that other owners and officials are also racist be shared. He would use such information to portray his penalty as unwarranted and contradicted by the conduct of those who ousted him. Sterling might request emails and other records from owners and officials that depict them in a negative light. Sterling has owned the Clippers for 33 years, which suggests that he has had many interactions -- including private conversations with league officials and owners. If there are other owners who are racist or bigoted, it stands to reason Sterling knows who they are.
3. If Sterling wins or extracts a settlement, not only could NBA owners be on the hook for an expensive fee, but Sterling would seem victorious. The appearance of him winning in court would greatly detract from the important social message accomplished by the lifetime ban.

It certainly may make for some amusement.

You should stop using the phrase "...and then it all went south" to mean something went wrong because it is an insult to all Southerners.
