Long live Don Sterling!

Long live V-Dot! (An animal in bed!)

Long may this rhubarb endure!

This is National Enquirer stuff. Its going to get worse. I’m thinking Silver is a member of the gaystapo and he went with more glee than prudence even with his legal background.

Did you happen to notice how THE most outspoken owner in the NBA, - Mr. Mark Cuban, suddenly fell silent when all the crap about Sterling broke loose...?

If the NBA is using rules endorsed and enforced by the collective owners of the teams through the NBA, he has the right to discovery to assure that they are not capriciously enforcing ‘rules’ they themselves might be intentionally overlooking.

The guy is a billionaire and I’d imagine that he’s willing to spend a few million to make the NBA pay for their indulgence.

The NBA is a stew of thugs, drugs, fornication, and greed. Looking under the carpet might be a bit too uncomfortable.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver was so strong and strident in his announcement that steps would be taken “immediately”...

Billboard in the DFW area:

The question raised by NBA’s Stephen A. Smith, Spike Lee, and several NBA players, current and past, is “Why is it taking so long to fire Donald Sterling?”

Ehhh, maybe because you can't fire an owner? You can fire an employee, but if the owner doesn't want to sell, then what?

For one thing, the law is on Sterling’s side. Luckily we no longer believe in the rule of law, so the mindless mob may get its way. Or not.

"Fire him?!" Sterling doesn't work for the NBA ...

During discovery, a lot of dirt can be discovered about the other owners.

Don't limit it to owners. Expand it to include management, staff, coaches and players. I'm sure digging in THAT woodpile will uncover a few other bigots...

They don’t have ‘preferred’ ‘new owners’ lined up for any other teams.

Yet.

Give them time though. Mark Cuban might be the next one. They’ve probably got the NSA reviewing his comms to find anything questionable.

Because none of those guys really wants to set the precedent of the Association being able to take their teams away just because they offended somebody.
