Clippers owner Donald Sterling doesn't want black people at his games - NBA - Sporting News



I am speechless....I hope the NBA forces him to sell. After googling his name, this is mild considering some of his past behavior. I guess its okay for Blacks to be at his games as long as they are players making money for him

Sadly, Mr. Sterling will be lauded as a true American hero by many who share his sentiments. And people still wonder why the race card is so frequently brought up. I give you exhibit A. Shame on you, sir.
