No I think it's wrong- I just don't find it offensive. People don't like some others. I just think it's funny how people try to act some folks still don't feel this way.

Way better he is Jewish than white euro too.

I mean, he has a history of being a massive piece of shite. This just adds to the legend.

You understand that not wanting to be seen with people based on the color of their skin is offensive to majority of people right?

I listened to the whole conversation and she intentionally re-directs and baits him in the "racists" direction. He spoke high well of other races and wanted to drop it, and she continues to provoke the response she was wanting. But this is what the media wants. ...


yeah this isn't his fault at all, in fact he is the victim here.

I think as Americans you have the right to be as ignorant as you choose to be.

So he shouldn't be able to own a basketball team because he's racist? That makes sense.

Actually no you don't, for example ignorance of the law is not a defense any court recognizes.

That doesn't pertain to this matter though. If he wants to be racist( oh and nice job of code words with ignorant instead of racist) he can be but that doesn't protect him from criticism, or even condemnation from the general public for his views.

The league will make him sell the team. Sterling will fight it. Legally they have no right. It will become a brewhaha.

But at end of day, money talks bullshite walks. As long as he cuts million dollar checks, we'll see how offended the players are.

I doubt they will. He's been a racist arse hole for years and nothing has happened to him.

She may have baited it him to get the opinion out but that opinion is still in him.

If he didn't feel that way he wouldn't have said it. She wasn't torturing him

You own a business. An independent enterprise in tied to an organization. Goodluck with making them sell. NBA has no right.

He's basically telling his girl to quit being a hoe cause it looks bad for him.

His girlfriend is mixed with black and whatever...how in the heck can they "force" him to sell cause of 2 minute excerpt from a conversation? Good luck with that one.

You have no clue what any of those contracts between the league and owners state.

There may be a clause stating that there is a method that allows the league to do just that.

There might not be either but I'm not the one making statemants of fact.

Let's stick with your theory though. If he is "an indenpendent enterprise" can the league just refuse to schedule any more games with the clippers and kick his team out? How valuable you think that team is gonna be when they don't have any games scheduled against other NBA teams?
