I don't think he was wrong in asking his concubine to be more discreet

Sterling needs to get out of the NBA environment. He is an ignorant 81 year old demented racist from a bygone era. BUT, that bitch whore should be sued by him for illegally taping their conversations without his permission and knowledge.

I don't think they should be able to kick him out. Plus they knew he was a racist before this point anyway. He was under investigation or being taken to court over it consistently before and during his ownership.

This is just a much more public issue. I think he is waiting to see how it pans out but if players want to be traded and new players will not play for him that will force him to sell. Plus if he looses sponsorship money and other contracts that will force the sale too.

I think his people are quietly looking into valuing the company/franchise for sale. He is not the first racist owner of a major sports team and he will not be the last.

I'm originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, remember Marge Schott ??? It's amazing, he's a billionaire and she was a multi-millionaire. How do obnoxious hypocrites get so rich ??? :cry: :cry: :cry:

i dislike sterling for lots of reasons but this is nonsense and he's going to litigate as he should.
a private, albeit disgusting, conversation is illegally recorded in his home and they feel it justifies taking away his business and livelihood? they knew for 20 years who this guy was and how he thought.
donald is a scumbag, slumlord pos but this is a huge overreach.
if you're a clipper fan prepare for armageddon and the destruction of your team.
like mark cuban said, this is a slippery slope.
anyone here think they could survive with our private conversations being recorded?
yeah didn't think so.

From what I've been able to glean is that at his request, the conversations with his girlfriend were recorded because he is apparently quite forgetful. :D

but I doubt if his intent was for her to make them public

The NBA commissioner has a lot more power than you know.

There was an interesting article this morning about the legal ramifications of a lifetime ban and even a forced sale. The conclusion was Silver and the rest of the owners do have binding authority to force Sterling out of the league and even force him to sell the team... if they choose to.

^ thanks for that and i like a lot about what he said. not sure i agree with his inner city/chicago assessment but thats a different conversation.
sterling is a cuckold and he didn't want to be embarrassed by her hanging w younger black men. at least thats what he was talking about on the tapes that i've heard. that and a very disturbing manner of thinking about why things are the way they are in this world.
how that equals stripping him of millions and taking away his team escapes me.
maybe we should get jay-z to explain his endorsements of the 5 percent nation?
if we are going down that road all sides should pay the toll.
but i really wish we weren't going down that road at all because it brings out the worst in all of us.

Au contraire, mon ami. If forced to sell, Sterling won't be stripped of millions - he'll make over 500 million dollars in profit.

81 year old hater. Wonder how many people will be at his funeral.

Banned for life from NBA. Good.

The world is a lot better than it used to be and getting better as these fossils die off.

The problem is when these haters die off there will be another Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson to replace them.
