re: I’m pretty excited about this Robert Sarver thing

quote:
In the 2012-13 season for a team-building exercise, players were asked to compliment one another. One Black player said that a white Suns player had “‘something African Americans call (N-word) in him.’ Sarver summarized what the players had said and, in doing so, repeated the word.” Sarver again was told he could not use the word. Sarver recalled to investigators that he said the player should not use the word and instead say “We’re in the foxhole together,” but none of the witnesses recalled that framing. — After an Oct. 30, 2016 game against Golden State, Sarver complained that a Black player on the Warriors was able to say the N-word without receiving a technical. Sarver used the word when he went into a coach’s office to vent about the non-calls. The coach told Sarver he could not say the word. The owner then sent an email to the league office, complaining about the officiating. Sarver “purported to quote the Warriors player as saying the N-word spelled out with an ‘a’ at the end,” per the investigation. — On two occasions, from 2010-2017, Sarver quoted a player’s family member as using the N-word when recounting a story about them boarding a team plane.
Retarded nba players want him fired for quoting them.

Since 2004, people around him have told him that he should not use that word. He has said and repeated it over and over. And in the case I have screen shotted above, openly mocked the black employee and abused his own power by continuing to repeat the word.
Please stop acting like he has studiously used these terms, or that it was necessary for him to use that term in any of these contexts.

On a somewhat related note… what teams have had controversial owners who left or were under pressure to leave in the last 20 years?
Ones that come to mind are Sterling, Sarver, and George Shinn.
Anyone see a pattern here, given who was on all three teams at the time ownership was forced out or under pressure?
