He gave money to the NAACP. That doesnt give anyone the right to be an a-hole. What if I fricked your wife and gave you a million dollars? Would you honor me? That is not an offer, btw

Well didn't you say he has been a known racist or something along those lines?

I think that would have been the second award he would have received

Because he gave them money and they want to keep getting money (money rules this world)

Have you not read anything about his past? Its pretty obvious

There were some in history who weren't. There were a few slave owners who bought european (irish are a big one), african, and asian.

Just a history fyi tidbit, but that has nothing to do with Sterling.

Come on dude

You implied that he wasnt racist because he sleeps with a half black/mexican gf, so i said that plantation owners slept with slaves. Doesnt make anything different

You do know the term "racism" doesnt just apply with black people?

It doesn't.

How does the outrage over his comments help race relations in the long run?

This just shows how out of touch with reality the LA NAACP branch is. The Hallmark cards that were as innocent as could be was the first sign they were nuts. Giving Sterling an award after he tried his hardest to evict black tenants and hiring Korean bodyguards to intimidate blacks in the aftermath of the 90s racial conflicts just shows that they were probably bought off by some donations.

Maybe his wife will accept the reward. She wants to take full ownership of the team & said she isn't racist.

What does banging a black chick have to do with whether or not he's a racist?

That wasn't even the point I was trying to make, but sure. Some slave owners were just cruel individuals who didn't give a flyin f about their slaves. They were a possession, regardless of their race. That was the history tidbit.

It calls attention to the fact that it's unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

Sure as frick helps more than turning a blind eye and pretending it's not that big a deal.

I wonder if his impending divorce will make him consider selling to Guggenheim and Magic asap.
