LeBron James: Entire Sterling family should be prohibited from owning Clippers

Sports Illustrated's SI Wire ^ | May 11, 2014 | Marc Weinreich

Same with Jay-Z and Michael Jordon who have both recently indicated they’re prejudice. You say Michael Jordan’s was a long time ago? Not as long ago as Paula Deans.

”As players, we want what’s right ....”

Again, I ask—if Sterling was such a KNOWN horrible racist, why did any of the black players play for him? Was that the right thing to do?

[OldMissileer]

From high school till today, LeBron has been a POS punk.

[Steven Tyler]

LeBron is a genius, the smartest guy in the room.
Just ask Lebron, he will confirm the above.

I cannot wait for future Lebron pearls of wisdom, dispensed in the third person.

He went straight into the NBA from high school. Now, his lack of grammar does not reflect well on the Catholic high school he attended in Akron, Ohio.

But only if Sterling turns around and invests the proceeds in a similar property. So he'd have to buy another sports team. And I don't see the owners in any other league approving his buying a team.

Ah, the old 1031 / 1035 type exchanges normally reserved for annuities or homes, thanks for jogging the memory. I am curious what 10_ _ number this exchange is...

[Maudeen]

I can’t believe people actually pay money to watch sports anymore. Role models. . .NOT. Fans wearing sports paraphernalia look outlandish and to think they paid big bucks for it. I just don’t get it.

Maybe I'm just too old-fashioned, but I believe that an elderly white man who is boinking a black girl for $2 million per year should have the right to ask her not to be seen out in public with the black guys she is boinking (with his permission) when it is causing the elderly guy's old-school buddies to give him flak about it.

But then again, I get really confused when billionaire black athletes decide that in such cases, it is somehow immoral to pass on assets to one's children, who may or may not have such misgivings about black whores being seen in public with black guys at sporting events.

*sigh* The nuns never prepared us for this.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This pretty much proves that Magic AIDS Johnson orchestrated the whole thing through one of his hoes so his cartel could force Sterling to disgorge the team to them at a fire-sale price.

My alternative plan:

There are no jobs in basketball-football-soccer-baseball-hockey-ANY ‘professional’ sport for all those players/athletes who have sired kids with multiple women & who also have sired kids with women they have never married.

They follow an disgusting life style & are heroes to the younger generations.

Until they clean up their act—NO JOB in major sports. They can work at the local Safeway stocking shelves.

[Gene Eric]

I still have no idea what the Old dude said.

I really don’t want to know what people say privately — it’s their space, not mine.

I’m suspicious of gratuitous praise benefiting any group. It’s not genuine and often serves some ulterior purpose.
