I'll just continue to watch reruns of The White Shadow.
Thinking maybe the AA's should form their own league, see how that works for them.
The guy is an idiot, but he didn't break the law.
Time to lighten up, drama queens.
Doesn't matter if he broke any laws or not. The point is that his comments and actions are Kryptonite for the NBA and the Clippers - it hits them at the pocketbook. And it's always about the Benjamins. So the NBA is putting the hurt on him because it's hurting their business.

A man with a Billion dollars doesnt care about money.. its power. He has been stripped of his power and that hurts more than a fine.

A billionaire and look at who he chose for a GF.

I watched the Pacers game last night and it was sold out. You make no sense.

Don't worry next week the media will gin up some other "controversy" for the left to scream about. Everybody has forgotten about the chicken man and now this guy is enemy one. So it goes.

Wow - this is valid. I saw this somewhere else, but wanted to make sure this is true. They would actually take more money from him.

Unbelievable. NAACP is not about black, but green.

Probably mentioned here already - media has not mentioned any political affiliations, which usually means he is a Democrat.

He was caught on video saying the N word right? So he a raciest that the standard now? If we are going to throw the book a Cooper for saying it once on tape than every one white, Mexican, black , Asian and all other races should have there tongues removed than no one could say racist things .

Riley Cooper does not have a history that I am aware of him being a racist. If I am wrong show me I am wrong.

Has nothing to do with my standards. I don't get to vote for either one. You're trying to pretend that two totally different organizations with totally different stated agendas and very different hidden agendas ought to come to the same moral conclusions. That's like saying boxing and WWE or football and soccer should be playing by the same rules.
