Reports are that the tapes weren't illegally recorded as she was his "archivist" and she has about 100 hours of additional recordings



the frick is an archivist?

I would think if her job was to record stuff it wouldn't include personal conversations between lovers, even if that lover is her.

I could be wrong though bc I dont know shite about an archivist!

archivists are for rich, self-important people who live on the coasts

I'm gonna be honest. When I heard the audio tapes it really didnt seem that bad.

He never used any form of racial slurs and even said he loved black people.

It appeared to me that his family\culture or whatever was more racist than him and thats why he didnt want his "girlfriend" posting pics with them bc it makes him look bad in front of his family\culture whatever. He even says how he admires Magic Johnson and thinks he is a great guy but he just doesnt want her to post pictures with him. It's all very odd. The whole conversation almost seemed scripted honestly. I don't feel a young girl like that would talk to her sugar daddy in the manor she did. Trying to be all philosophical and what not. But who knows. I dont live in California, maybe that's just how they speak.


Either way, it makes no fricking sense for him to be racist because his girlfriend is a black person.. but idk.

I can easily see where what he says rubs people the wrong way and be racist but this whole situation is WAY overblown

@TMZ_Sports Donald Sterling KNEW He Was Being Recorded -- Ex GF Tells Friends LINK

Donald Sterling was AWARE he was being taped during the conversation that was posted on TMZ Sports, in which the L.A. Clippers owner went on a racial rant ... so claims the woman who taped him.

A source connected with V. Stiviano tells TMZ Sports ... the full conversation lasted approximately 1 hour. We're told Stiviano insists it was clear to Sterling at the beginning of the conversation he was being recorded.

What's more ... our sources say Stiviano routinely recorded her conversations with Sterling as HIS "archivist." And what's more ... she would regularly play the tapes back to him because he would often forget what he had said.

Our sources say sometime after the tape was recorded on April 9 ... Stiviano and Sterling got in an argument because he wanted her to sign a confidentiality agreement ... which she would not. We're told he then denied ever making the racist statements on the tape, so she played the entire tape for back him ... before it was ever posted on TMZ Sports.

So entrapment and extortion?

Stiviano is not a credible source.

what he said was stupid, terrible, and nowhere near anything i'd agree with. but, spoiler alert, there are people who are racists in this world (or at least show racist tendencies). a guy who has been sued multiple times for racial discrimination in the past just isn't a shocking candidate for being called a racist, to me.

i won't get shocked the next time jim brown says some stupid, racist shite, either

let me just state this again. if there is one group of people who should sympathize with a rich guy being fricked over by his groupie/side gf, it's NBA players. paul george had his year derailed by a gold-digger claiming he knocked her up this very year

like i've said a bunch, the LEAST interesting part about all of this is the words that came out of his mouth

the whole "racist with a minority gf" angle, the faux outrage, the manufactured outrage, the hypocrisy of the NBA circle (fans, players,coaches, analysts), the possible "nuclear option", etc are all much more interesting

What's a racist doing with this ugly man-handed biracial woman?? He's worth 2 billion, he can get gobs of white bimbos if he wanted.

I wanna hear more from Sterling on this...mainly because his voice entertains me.

let's just take this at face value

the country is flipping out over an 80+ year old man who can't even remember what he says, so he has to have it recorded

To be fair, most NBA fans who pay attention have long felt that Sterling was an embarrassment to the league. Now the mainstream knows about how crazy he is. That's where the outrage is coming from

That type of behavior isn't new. The grand master of the KKK was caught in the backseat of a car fricking a black tranny.

He also said he didn't want her bringing black people to his games. Maybe you don't think it's that bad, but that's outrageous.

You don't have to use overt racial slurs to be racist.

Apples to oranges. That grand master wasn't a billionaire that could have millions of beautiful white women any time he wanted.

Honestly, I'm not sure it's what most people are assuming. Releasing the tape to TMZ would not help, and in fact hurt, her in any civil proceedings.

Let's hone Occam's Razor here for a minute. If the above is true, maybe he was just racist and said enough things to offend even her sparse morals. Maybe she released the tape to TMZ to expose him. I think it will become more clear over time.

Bottom line is that if it was him, I'm glad she did. He should be exposed.

Beside the point.

Just because you consort with a minority doesn't mean you can't be racist against said minority.
