Long Title:

"Donald Sterling costs Clippers State Farm, CarMax, Virgin America, Kia, Red Bull sponsorships (updated)"

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Wont that hurt the players salaries and not the Billionaire owner? No revenue = no salaries.

But I do remember a quote from Sterling saying, as soon as the team stops turning a profit, he will get out of the business, or some paraphrase. He won't dump his own money into it, for sport, he is a businessman. M2C.

[funfan]

Personally I don’t see the big deal about what he said. I wonder what you might hear out of Sharptons, Obamas, Clintons you name it anyone’s mouth when they are being recorded or being candid. I would hate to have my conversations on tape.

What about all the comments about conservatives or tea partiers or what about the Black Panthers saying to kill Crackers?

[dforest]

Sterling is a liberal degenerate and jackass, but he didn’t cause the loss.

The people who called for the boycott caused the loss.

Facts are facts.

[45semi]

Mayhap he could give Paula a ring, and get some advice. . .

[CivilWarBrewing]

But for years, State Farm, CarMax, Virgin America, Kia, etc, saw NOTHING WRONG with the hateful, ANTI-WHITE and mysogenistic rap music which is now deeply woven into the fabric of pro basketball and part of just about every player's daily life.

[Ted Grant]

Moving in for the kill.

[Parmy]

Just a question: Why don't Johnson, Barkley, Sharpton, Jackson, all the millionaire news people, including Hannity, pool their money and buy the old guy out. Then they could run the ball club as they see fit.

If they can't buy the old guy out, I am sure that the NBA would make an exception and create another fanchise for them.

Democrat Donald Sterling (D-Los Angeles), the FACE of The Democrat Party.

[Moonman62]

He’ll be able to show a lot of losses when he sues TMZ.

[Baynative]

But when the racists in the democrat party falsely accuse Tea Party members of calling them ENN-WORD names or spitting on them in an attempt to incite riots or abet violence they are rewarded with more contributions.

Indeed, its a strange time in an even stranger world.

[grobdriver]

probably did serious injury to themselves to be the first out there to "disavow racism" or some equally stupid gimmicky thing.
Thanks, Obama, for raising race to the top of the priority list, and never mind little piddly stuff like unemployment, the ability to defend ourselves in the world or the regeneration of the Soviet Union.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Wait does this mean I wont have to see those annoying Blake Griffin KIA commercials anymore, please let that be the case

[SoFloFreeper]

Oh well. He is a billionaire. A member of the 1%. He can handle it.

Has anyone been curious enough to ask about the ethics of recording someone without their knowledge? Or does the asinine industry that calls it self journalism in America not care, since they can play the race card for the next couple of days?

[Jonty30]

If I were this guy and was forced to sell my business, for simply being a Class-A jerk, I’d probably go about doing whatever I could to leave the franchise unviable. Let them run an expensive stadium with a team permanently, for a few years anyway, hobbled.

[smalltownslick]

Well, he didn’t, the vindictive GF did.
