Presumably, when the team of crisis public relations experts sat down to prep Clippers owner Donald Sterling, they were able to hammer one paragraph into his head.
Im not a racist. I made a terrible, terrible mistake. Im here with you today to apologize, and to ask for forgiveness, Sterling begins, in what will quickly spin out into the most tone-deaf apology in TV history.
That was good. What followed was the antimatter of good. If the ideas Sterling vocalized to CNNs Anderson Cooper were to come into contact with goodness, the universe would collapse in on itself.
Throughout, it was a cringing and maudlin display. Sterling kicks it off with a transparently phony story about his granddaughter being denied sweets at school because we dont give candy to racists.

We all learned from Clinton —it doesn’t matter HOW sordid it gets, you just keep lying and fighting.
When decency tugs at your conscience, you simply banish and bury the impulse, and you dig in your heels and out with your checkbook and rolodex.
You dig down and claw and spit and scream and accuse.
You let it go on, and on, and on, and on.
Bill got the ball rolling with Monica and the many bimbos, and after Al missed out on Florida by a whisker he did the same.
And “Sterling” should too, with his billions. Let there be phalanxes of consultants and lawyers and PR people. Let some tacky faux religious charlatan come and “pray” with Sterling with him at his house, along with his “assitant”, who is later shown to have been pregant.
I hope Sterling spends EVERY last penny on holding onto the Clippers, and shows what a good student of liberal street-fighting that liberals have made millions into.
Let Liberalism really behold it’s good work.
Unfortunately, that is not true. Do a search.
Fingers crossed he finds the right one.
Johnson is a despicable lech who admitted he slept with so many women so easily that he even thinks he slept with “women” who “weren’t women”. Gee, I wonder how he got HIV. Yet ALL THAT, plus his shakedown artistry in Harlem and L.A. is somehow forgotten. Earvin Johnson is a horrible role model. It’s just too bad that an even worse one Sterling is pointing this out.
“Sounds like he wants to take Magic down with him.”
Why not, isn’t he a queer with aids?
“this inquisition could make the NBA look like they are punishing an old man who is not in full control of himself.”
Not likely, he’s an old white man. That makes him open to any derision imaginable
I believe that Donald Sterling is smart enough to have tied up the Clippers in a family trust that's virtually unbreakable. I met him in Bev Hills in about 1990, when the Clippers were the worst team in basketball. A smooth, pleasant, and extremely clever fellow who made every one of those billion bucks from scratch. Dumb, he is not. So yes, I'm pulling up a chair and watching with great interest.
My guess: one day, not too far in the future, the media will just stop covering the story. Signifying, of course, that the Clippers remain in the Sterling Trust stables.
I know that he contributes to Democrats big time, but technically he’s a registered Republican and that’s all the media and John and Joan Q. Dimwit care about. :(
In this politically correct world we live in now, we’re not allowed to criticize Magic Johnson and how he became HIV positive. Sad to say, yes, MJ is immune from criticism.
I have not much interest in what he's saying. I'm just glad that the guy is out there.
“MJ is immune from criticism.”
Not from me he isn’t, he’s a low class scum queer with aids!!
Maybe he got caught doing something like Michael Jordan did, and the NBA made up a story so he could retire without the truth coming out.
TMZ reported last week that embattled L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling is considering suing the National Basketball Association. But according to the Los Angeles Daily News, Sterling has been rejected by at least eight law firms, who worry that taking him on as a client may upset existing clients and their images.But does Sterling have a case? Yes.
Listen to ESPN radio. You can practically hear the brain fragments hitting the studio walls.
Guy is a loon but, that doesn’t equal killing dogs, raping weemen, shooting people, dealing drugs, etc.
Is there proof he disenfranchised someone?
Democrat Donald Sterling (D-California) merely express what ALL white (and some Uncle Tom black) Democrats think about AFrican-Americans.
He's either a Democrat, or a Moderate Country Club Republican. Either way, he's anti-black AND anti-Tea Party.
They're coming now for the folks who are anti-black AND anti-Tea Party. Their freedom of thought and freedom of speech is being taken away, right before our eyes. Doesn't matter what Sterling's views are -- his freedom of speech is your freedom of speech. When he loses his, you lose yours.
Draw a line.
Sterling has his, and when he is finished with the NBA they may be finished too. How fitting...the guy labeled as ‘racist’ brings down the most racist professional sports organisation in history. The NFL is racist. All black. White players need not apply (tokenism, window dressing only).
