The NBA players demographic makeup is racist, but no one dares speak of that because it fits their agenda.
Laughable.

I am appalled by this guys racism, in addition to the fact that she would lie in the same bed with him for his money.

Well that's offensive.

The thing is that she shouldn't be viewed as some sort of champion of civil rights. Her type sets feminism back a few hundred years. Move to LA and find some horny elderly rich guy to make your life easy. Blech.
Um Reread the first few pages. People are already trying to deflect from him.

I'm aware of that........but only the latter have appeals to it as part of their marketing strategy.

What she does has nothing to do with this, her sex life is irrelevant.

But follow the money. Suddenly we're hearing this - Exit strategy for NBA, Donald Sterling: Sell Clippers to Magic Johnson - http://sports.yahoo.com/news/exit-st...073015142.html

Shakedown comes to mind. Just a thought.
That would be ironic, to say the least.

The fact that this was obtained illegally should be far more disgusting to the average person than what he said.

You have LeBron James, Mark Jackson, Magic Johnson all saying "this has no place in society".

So we just heard employees of the NBA (under the owners) dictating not only what the administration should do before even vetting the details, but they are claiming that speech (protected constitutionally) has no place in society.

Forget what the tawdry details are, the fact that ANYTHING spoken shouldn't be allowed in society is a crime against society.

Only ~30 people are owners of a NBA team, however every single American could be blackmailed by this type of invasion of privacy.
What details are there to be vetted? Oh, let me guess? Sterling really didn't say any of that junk?

As the Clippers are his property, Sterling has the right to do or say what he wants regarding them.

However, those he sells to (fans, etc.) and associates with (business owners, NBA owners, etc.) have the right to tell him that they no longer want to buy from him or associate with him, and that they will exert societal and, more importantly, economic pressure to get rid of him. Apply enough economic pressure to anyone, even a multibillionaire, and they will cave. Inshallah, that will happen to Donald Sterling.
