“What does he want to axe him? And what’s this about him not being “allowed” to own a team? If the team’s selling for $X, and he walks up and plunks down X, what are you supposed to do about it? “

Ahh.. The Rush Limbaugh gambit.

This will be over and scrubbed before the dinner this week. Sterling is going to be elevated to sainthood before this is all dne.

The odd, and unremarked upon thing, is that his comments are really racist, in the sense of depicting blacks as inferior or unworthy. He also seems unconcerned if his wife is bringing blacks home or sleeping with them. His one request is that she be discreet about it, and not boast about it on Instagram or show them off in public at Clippers' games.

She's not his wife, she's a "girlfriend". In actuality, some may call her a paid escort. In any event, he made a big mistake. He should have realized her lack of judgement was a liability, and cut her off immediately -- no warnings, no second chances, get her out of his life and get somebody else to be seen with him in public.

People can say whatever they want to in a private conversation in the America I once knew. I want Sharpton to pay his taxes and to quit railing against Republicans and white people 24/7.

This is one of those “I disagree with what you say but defend your right to say it” moments that the left not surprisingly is falling on it’s face on.

I think the guy is human garbage for lots of reasons...primarily his Dem donations, but he absolutely has the right to say it.

That said, he and all the leftists this hopefully ensnares also have to accept the consequences of the world his Democrat money and pushing liberal BS helped create.

I listened to the audio recording on TMZ. He seemed to mainly be upset that his "girlfriend" was making him look bad to his peers by openly and notoriously catting around with black athletes.

He should have just limited the conversation to "Hi. We're done. Security has just finished moving your stuff out of my condo and into storage. The keys to the storage locker are with the doorman. Don't try contacting me again.

WHO secretly taped him, then released the tape???

It was a phone conversation, which means that it was either her or the NSA. And I don't think the NSA cares.

He was breaking up with her, and she was probably taping all conversations, and leading him into saying stuff that she could release in revenge. Listening to her on the tape, she sounds like a piece of work.

I get that. But the girlfriend is playing the role of ‘trophy wife’ in this scenario. She exists as arm candy. Whether or not they are married isn’t my point.

Call it whatever. Traded in on the new model and hasn’t signed the loan...she is nothing but a rich/powerful man’s piece of jewelery.

Shall we convene some sort of Star Chamber to see how many NBA players themselves have used racially charged, offensive language?

Let them eat each other alive, it’s been many years since I really cared all that much about pro basketball. Spoiled, grossly overpaid primadonnas who are not giving advertisers their money’s worth in this age of declining viewership, the lot of them, owners and players both.
