LA Clippers (NBA team) taped making unbelievably racist remarks
 
It'll be interesting to see what the new NBA commissioner will (or is able to) do about it. What will the players do (they have a playoff game tomorrow)? 86% of the Clipper roster is African-American and 4 out of 6 coaches are as well.

Can you believe an NBA owner would and could say such a thing? BTW, he's a repeat offender.

Are you kidding? Of course a rich entitled white guy would be quite capable of making such statements, as would a member of the working class, the professional class, the political class or the clergy. Even though overt racism has become socially unacceptable in most segments of society, it survives.

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes for him to claim that he isn't a racist and for Fox News to claim he's being persecuted.:rolleyes:

I guess the worst part of it is that he is an NBA owner, earning millions off the efforts of a predominately African-American team with an African-American coach.

I agree, but he's entitled, don't ya see. But I suppose that is type of entitlement is going to be protected because he's a job creator.

If it is indeed him on the tape, I suspect the league will be forced to suspend him like they did with Marge Schott, at the very least. The new commissioner's handling of this will be interesting.

According to the report during the game last night, he agreed to skip this playoff game while the investigation is ongoing.

ELGIN BAYLOR LAWSUIT

Not taking sides in Elgin Baylor's lawsuit against the Clippers, but you hate to see it go down like this.

Baylor's served 22 years with the franchise and is an LA icon, after all. Well, let's get right to the ugliness.

Baylor, whose career as an NBA executive was as spectacularly mediocre as his playing career was great, filed an employment discrimination lawsuit against the NBA, the Clippers, owner Donald Sterling and club president Andy Roeser in Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday. And his recent quotes on the matter are rather jarring. From TMZ:

Terrible Human Being Donald Sterling Ordered To Pay $17.3 Million For Being A Negligent Landlord


LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

12/18/12 5:30pm

That Clippers owner Donald Sterling is a racist, cheap, and all-round rotten pile of puke is not newsworthy. But this latest line item on Sterling's ledger of awfulness certainly is: An LA jury has ordered Sterling to pay $17.3 million to actress Robyn Cohen, who had sued him because she lost most of her possessions in a fire at a West Hollywood apartment building Sterling owns.

I see it as just giving him a little nudge along his own chosen path of self destruction.

But I see your point.

He doesn't need any help.

Oh I forgot. How come the lefty NAACP keeps giving him Lifetime Achievement Awards

Donald Sterling scheduled to receive NAACP award amid controversy

By Thomas O’Toole

A May 15 banquet for the Los Angeles chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People just became a lot more intriguing. The group is planning to honor Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling with a lifetime achievement award. This is the 100th anniversary of the L.A. chapter.

But in light of racist comments attributed to Sterling on a recording that surfaced on the TMZ website, the banquet plans might be changing.

L.A. mayor Eric Garcetti is also scheduled to be honored with a Person of the Year Award, as is the Rev. Al Sharpton. But, Yusef Robb, the mayor’s spokesman, told the Los Angeles Times on Saturday, “In light of recent events, we will be discussing the event with the Los Angeles NAACP.”

On the chapter’s website, the list of honorees still included Sterling late Saturday night. An email and phone call from USA TODAY Sports to the office was not immediately returned.

I made a mistake, like everyone does on occasion.

When I realized it, I did what adults do, I deleted the comment, and when you called me on it, I owned up to it.

Well I was going to say fair enough, until the rant.

And still nothing on the topic of this racist pig doing what he does over and over. All with consent of the NAACP to look the other way.
