He explicitly had no problem with her having sex with the black, young studs of the NBA, NFL, or her favorite nightclub.
He just didn’t want it public. He encouraged her to engage in these dalliances at home, in private.
This has more to do with an old fool not wanting to look like an old fool, and less to do with bigotry.
Her being seen with oversexed young studs embarrassed and humiliated him. In his mind, it made him look like he couldn’t handle his young girlfriend. He comes across as a cuckolded old fool.
I think that was his beef. He’s a wealthy billionaire, master of the universe, and he didn’t want it to look like his girl slutted around, even if she did actually slut around.
That’s my opinion.
All this may well come out once they ostracize him.
The tell-all that he will author will probably bag him far more than the NBA fined him.
I think you are 100% correct. Obviously, Sterling was aware that his girl friend was half black...making her a black person in this society. He is an owner of a sports league where 80% of the players are black and he reportedly was upset that his GM acquired a white player, J.J. Redick, because he, Sterling, didn't think white players were any good.
Now he might actually be a virulent racist, but they are punishing him for what he said in a supposedly private conversation which could have large legal implications. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.
