The same people who have decided who gets banned and who gets suspended since the league was put together, the Commissioner and the Board of Governors.

Marge Schott anyone? How about Frank McCourt?

I would hope it's not about selling jerseys but that seems to be where you are going. If that is so then it's just more ridiculous. The evil racist WR on Philly had a good year. So it goes. Now nobody cares. Unless the media starts screaming about it again.
What are you rambling on about? This thread is about Sterling and his racist comments that have led to his ban from the NBA.

Kobe Bryant was already caught calling a ref a homophobic slur during the middle of a game.

Yes all you and the mob think it's about. You can't even open your eyes enough to see though. Like usual. Keep screaming. In the end you when the same folks you scream with imprison you for nothing you will be screaming louder and nobody will listen.

Who is deflecting? The whole thing is just plain stupid. You want me to pull up some youtubes of black guy saying much worse? I put up what snoop lion said and not one liberal commented about it earlier. I wonder why. You have your marching orders so march. Don't get mad when you are called on it though. See how that works? I know many folks are racist as we all have learned in our life.........Hypocrites I like less.
