I agree. That's why the NBA is wrong. His actions were enough to take his team and they ignored them. At one point he was late paying the players. If his actions weren't enough then his words should be easily dismissed too.

I don't think two wrongs make a right.

But I'm glad we have the right in this country to say ignorant stuff. Otherwise, he would still be the owner.

That's exactly what he is doing here.

Offering his opinion on something that he would like the Constitution to do.

Keep trolling Ivan.

And call me whatever you would like. Your opinion of me is as irrelevant as your knowledge of the Constitution.

No, he disagrees with the Constitution.

If Donald Sterling owned a body shop, the Constitution would give him the same right to say racially insensitive things he was able to say as an NBA owner.

But because he is in a select club of 32 people, their by laws give them the right to vote him out of the club.

I was talking to Hawg Ass, Seacrest.

I remember you being a lot nicer to me. I'm not sure I like this new Seacrest.

And I wasn't trolling. Just (obviously) overstating things. You're a smart guy. I'm sure it would have occured to you eventually.


Now stop being so mean, please...

And, hopefully, finally, the fun really begins ...

http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2014/06/12/donald-sterling-hires-private-investigators-to-dig-up-dirt-on-nba-owners-commissioner/

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s team of lawyers has hired four private investigation firms to dig up dirt on the NBA’s former and current commissioners and its 29 other owners, a person familiar with Sterling’s legal strategy said.

Investigators were given a six-figure budget over the next 30 days to examine the league’s finances, allegations of previous discriminatory conduct and compensation to past Commissioner David Stern and current Commissioner Adam Silver, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday night on condition of anonymity. The person wasn’t authorized to talk publicly.

The person said the investigators also are looking into whether other owners made any off-color jokes, or racist or sexist remarks.

“The gloves are off, as they say,” the person said. “Have them dig up all the dirt they can find.”


The 80-year-old Sterling is suing the NBA for $1 billion in federal court after the league tried to oust him as Clippers owner for making racist remarks to a girlfriend that were recorded and publicized. Silver fined him $2.5 million and banned him for life.

The suit alleges the league violated Sterling’s constitutional rights by relying on information from an “illegal” recording. It also said the league committed a breach of contract by fining Sterling and that it violated antitrust laws by trying to force a sale.

Sterling’s attorneys will also be facing off with his wife’s attorneys in probate court during a four-day hearing scheduled for July.

The probate court hearing centers on whether Shelly Sterling had the right to unilaterally negotiate a $2 billion deal to sell the Clippers to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. Shelly Sterling’s attorney, Pierce O’Donnell, said she made the deal as the sole administrator of The Sterling Family Trust, which owns the team, after two doctors determined her estranged husband was mentally “incapacitated.” Donald Sterling is fighting that conclusion and her authority to sell.

The person who spoke to the AP said Donald Sterling reluctantly agreed to hire private investigators after this week’s legal proceedings in probate court. The NBA submitted a legal filing Wednesday urging a judge to confirm Shelly Sterling’s authority to sell the team.

“He realized these guys will literally go to any low to get this sold,” the person said. “Even if it gets (him) nothing other than exposing all these guys and shaking up the league and seeing a change in the leadership of the league, it’ll be worth it to him.”

The firms will be engaged in an “audition” of sorts, the individual said: “whoever delivers the best (material) is going to stay on for the next round and it might be all four of them. … 29 owners is not a small undertaking.”

Yeah, that has as much chance of happening as you getting ownership of the team for a nickel.

How's that plan working out?

Billionaires, or even multimillionaires are crazy mother fuckers and this is what they are best at, fucking with people.

I keep hearing that he has early-onset Alzheimer's.

He's 80. He just has Alzheimer's.

Remember all the experts who said this would be done quick and I said NO WAY. I continue to tell you it's a different breed of people when you get someone over $100 mill. They get what they want and will die trying. Yes, maybe it will take this guys death to resolve this.

Part of me thinks Ballmer is hoping this drags out and even goes Donald Sterling's way because he probably just woke up and realized he bid $2B for the fucking LA Clippers. :shock:
