Location: Somewhere between S@%&# stirrer and Saint | TXBO - 2014-04-29 3:47 PM NJJ - 2014-04-29 2:30 PM MsDuchessGoTe - ] I thought I read there was a way to "remove" him as owner of the team with enough support from certain big wigs. Is this even possible? To "force" someone to sell something that is rightfully theirs? It all seems a little whackadoodle to me, even if he is a racist pig. Yes, when they talk about "owning" the team, it is actually "owning" the franchise. It takes 75% of the current franchise "owners" to force him to sell, which I don't think they will have any problem getting the support.....those 75% certainly don't want THEIR players to walk out in protest and refuse to play.
My bet is they are less worried about a player walkout than they are lost revenue.
The owners may be searching their own closets! |

Clippers give me a call, I won't put you over the salary cap! Back off, Whitey! I called it first!  
"Well Clipper fans, I have never seen a larger crowd here in Clipper Stadium. Just a few short weeks ago, we had a total shut out by over paid NBA stars and some wondered, would we ever see over beloved Clipper Jersey's on the court again? Well, tonight, not only are our beloved Clipper Jersey's back on the court, but they are, also, draping the backs of some pretty special players. Tonight, for the very first time in NBA history, we have a 1/64 th Indian, pregnant woman in the starting line up. And, what's even more amazing is that she only has 7 fingers after a tragic skill saw accident JUST LAST WEEK! Could it get any more heart warming Clipper fans? Well, the answer is, YES! Because, joining her is forward, Douglas Gordon, who is 1/4 Indian!!! He is an 80% free throw shooter, that wrestled in high school, with ONE TESTICLE!!!!.........also, they have a point guard joining them who hasn't really accomplished much and will definitely be over shadowed by these two super stars, but she'll still rake in $70,000 for this game alone."

Indeed. All matters of conscience outside of the business arena are now subject to financial risk. |

| I don't think anyone has listened to the full conversation and the antagonistic way his mistress kept egging the conversation on .. over and over ...
Sterling's mention of Magic Johnson is because Magic and an investor have been trying to oust Sterling to buy the Clippers ...
Listen once ... listen twice ... this man is being attacked and his business stolen right before your eyes for doing nothing ...

give me a break.....You need to do a little research.....This isn't the FIRST time for this man....he is a "scum bag" who has had MANY discrimination suits, as a landlord and businessman, brought against him and "bought" his way out of the problems to make them go away and out of the news.....he just got CAUGHT this time and gave the NBA the "golden opportunity" to finally get him out......he was a detriment to their franchises. |

| I think this is nothing more than a very convenient way for the NBA to move him out. I would bet quite a bit of money that they have been trying for awhile. Do you think Sterling is the only one paying the girlfriend? I doubt it! |

Location: Oklahoma City OK | I haven't read all the posts and surely this has been said, but my two cents: I hate that he's such a bigot, and the heftiest fine in the world isn't going to make him NOT be a bigot...but what about rights for privacy? No doubt worse things have been said thousands of times...what precedence does this set in ALL our conversations? Libel, defamation of character? Pretty soon no one can say anything derrogatory in any conversation for fear of that private conversation becoming public fodder and grounds for retribution. Wonder what the gold digger got paid to distribute that taped and private conversation. No one is safe anymore. |

This is exactly what we were saying the first time we heard it. She just wouldn't let up. You can tell she is keeping the conversation going, trying to get him to say more and more.
She was getting something to hold over him when she didn't get her way some time.
He is a racist pig, but this was plain as day entrapment. |
