Donald Sterling and his comments

Guess we will have to agree to disagree. I just don't think it was racist at all. He is dating a mixed girl, he owns a team where he hired and signed many black people. I am not so sure he is racist, but regardless what he said was not a racist comment. He even said he doesn't care if she sleeps with them, just to stop promoting and showing off all her black guys.

Ah, the old, "You can bang a black guy but just don't bring any black guys around or take pictures with any" defense to racism. Don't know how to even begin to explain the racism to you because you'd do anything not to see it.

They may or may not. This is a pretty unprecedented case here. The NBA may have its own bylaws, but they very well may be superseded by actual law. Sterling doesn't seem like he cares about the money, the man is old, senile, and has cancer. I don't think he would have any trouble in his mind fighting this thing and costing the NBA as long as he can...

The "actual law" is contract law. These were all sophisticated business men. Extremely doubtful he's going to be able to get around a signed agreement.

OK.. so the owner is a billionaire 80-year-old racist... real shocker.

Agreed. Not at all surprising... especially given the fact that most people already knew he was a racist.

What's worse.. beating your wife, or dropping the N-bomb? One gets national attention, the other is glossed over. Our societies priorities are outta whack. I haven't seen one dude stand up and say "fuck you Donald Sterling, I don't want your money." I mean, he has all kinds of equal housing lawsuits against him, his racism isn't exactly breaking news.

I think you'll see a few guys willing 2 play somewhere else for less money as this lawsuit plays itself out. The Clippers are last on the totem in free agency going forward so long as he's the owner.

Fuckin' Magic Johnson preaching is ridiculous, too. Being racist is worse than sleeping with hundreds of women behind your wife's back and contracting HIV? I wish someone would have stood up from the African American community and said "ya know, this is terrible, but we've all made mistakes." Instead, all Magic wants is to buy the team. This is exactly how fools like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton become millionaires.

I just want to make sure we're clear here: Sterling admittedly pays for sex with women who aren't his wife. But Magic is the asshole here because he got a lot of pussy when he was famous before he got married? Gotcha!

Also, and I hate to point this out, but I don't really care if Donald Sterling is breaking God's law (One of the TEN Commandments I might add) by blatantly committing adultery, but does he have to do it so brazenly in public? I mean, how do I explain that to my son?

I like how you have this perception that I'm as old as Best Buckeye or something. Have fun being a racist Johnny Hatecrime fanboy, but I'm tired of seeing your inane bull[Mark May].

Haha yes I am so racist that I live with 2 black roommates. But you got me! I actually feel bad for you if you're not an old man bc you seem bitter and cranky 24/7 like you'd be one.

Now get back to the village where you belong!

Maybe your responses would make more sense if you actually comprehended what you were responding to. He called you a fanboy of racist Johnny Hatecrime. He didn't call you a racist. He called your endless babble inane. Let me help you out. Mike said your postings lack sense or significance.

America today = PC more important than logic.

“I’m proud to be black” says the black man
“I’m proud to be Asian” says the Asian man
“I’m proud to be gay” says the gay man
“I’m proud to be white” says the racist.

So you lack reading comprehension skills and in order to make up for it you resort to unfounded homophobic accusations? You're an internet tough guy, aren't you? Hiding behind your keyboard like a pussy. I can't believe you haven't been banned.

I would say that was a pretty reasonable statement to make by me. Not an internet tough guy at all. Simply calling a spade a spade. I see just like Mike you also get yourself all worked up super easily! You want to come at me don't be surprised when I dish it back

Or perhaps, sure I'd love to go golfing sometime! Sarry knot err so goud at dat deer readin compreehention. :biggrin:

Making homophobic slurs against people is a reasonable statement? Really?

Why do you assume it was a homophobic statement? That's on you... Never said anything hateful towards gay people. You guys sure are good at making a mountain out of a mole hill.
And you sure are good at making statements, backtracking, and being a complete asshole. The pussy was directed at an internet tough guy who wouldn't have the balls to say what you did to my face. That would be you. The things I said, I'd say to your face in a heartbeat.
