I don't mean to make you keep repeating yourself

I think the "they" in his words are te guys he keeps getting calls about from his buddies.

I think you think he means every black person ever born. I don't think he'd care if she brought a black baby or black grandmother to a game.

Where thats where youre wrong. He simply said black people. Never singled anyone out, because he didnt care who she was fricking

Only guy that was brought up was Magic, because she had just posted a pic with him on instagram

And im done with this thread

How can he be banned from showing up at the games of the team he owns? Who is going to stop him?

I was wondering that too. But I don't think it'd be wise to figure it out

A hefty fine seems justified but the rest is a knee jerk reaction. After all, this is only the entertainment business.

I'll bet Mr. Sterling's lawyers are ready to appeal armed with the fact that the NAACP was ready to give their client an award this week.

He wasn't at the office. Its time to hold players accountable. You know openly speaking out against gays. And the players are more recognizable in the NBA than any owner not named Cuban. Why aren't they protecting the business? A player can stand up in front of media and call some one the n or f word. They won't get a life time ban.

Sterling has a strong case against the NBA. Let's not forget his wife owns half the team.

This is where he will have a fighting chance. Silver can't make him sell his business. Silver can't keep him from conducting business.

I support Silver's action, but honestly the NCAAP needs an internal investigation. WTF its not like this is the first time he has been known to do/say outrageous, racist things. Absolutely absurd, someone had to be getting paid off.

Civil Rights movement gone way the fuk out of control. I guess the NAACP is going to hold the award they were going to give him later this week for all the good he has done for minorities.

Jay Z wore this anti-white necklace two weeks ago but no outrage there.

That award speaks to a lack of integrity from the NAACP way more than it does enlightenment from Tokowitz.

ETA - Tokowitz was basically buying "black cred" from the NAACP.

Wait, so all of the people that were saying "get over it" and "let it go" 48 hours ago are the ones still talking about this?

It's done, let it go. Donald Sterling being booted out of the NBA doesn't affect your everyday life so no reason to act outraged by it, right?
