As deplorable and racist as his comments were, you almost get a feeling that he was being set up by being recorded. We've all said things in private that shouldn't be aired in a public setting. No excuse for being such a bigot in this day and age, but at the end of the day, he did pay for the Clippers team, and it his team. Curious to see what the league will do, all eyes are on Silver and the power he can exert. It seems he's got the backing of the owners and players to come down hard on Sterling.
Totally agree. Sterlings a POS but that shouldn't be news to anyone he's been notorious in the NBA for decades. Honestly, hearing all the backlash before I heard what he said I thought it would be a lot worse. Im not sure why people needed an illegally taped conversation between him and a person he was in an intimate relationship with to just now declare him a racist and try to get rid of him. Forcing someone to sell their assets because they're a c--t would result in a lot billionaires losing their businesses, it's just completely ludicrous to force him out on those grounds.
