can the NBA just kick the Clippers out of the league?



they do have legal verbiage to do it, need approval of 3/4ths of the owners.

As much as I hate agreeing with Mark Cuban, I look at this as one of those situations which could open up a huge can of worms for the NBA owners.

Forcing him out sets a precedent that can be used against any other NBA owner if he pisses off enough people.

Quick swift action in the storm of pitchfork crowd always works out well in the end legally.



Same problems Penn State made with that clown of formerly FBI.

I think he is doing fine...but isn't this his first big announcement and probably one of the biggest of his careers..who wouldn't be a little nervous

It was tongue in cheek.

I said in another thread that a slap on the wrist wasn't going to work. I was right.

Yup what a fricking joke, guy made these comments in private in his own home in a moment of rage at some bitch.

He's also been awarded numerous times by the NAACP, (that part is all of a sudden forgotten)
