I actually hope she buys it for several hundred million dollars and then demands that the lesbian amazons of the WNBA be allowed to play.

Cue Dr. Evil: “Sure Oprah, the team can be yours for $5 million .... sorry, $5 billion dollars”.

Too bad it wasn't in Chitcago. Oprah could rename them the Bulldykes.

She’s as bad as Sterling. Or worse.

If I were Sterling, I would just give ownership to my son and shoot the middle finger at Magic, Oprah and the rest of the racist gotcha crowd.

It’s possible, but I suspect this is more Oprah Winfrey grandstanding. She’d have to scrape together... what?... like a billion? That’s not chump-change even for somebody as wealthy as her thigh-ness. That would take a financial re-organization of her assets that would take months, or even a year, before she could execute the purchase.
Maybe Sterling or the NBA would agree in principle to a sale within a year. That’s possible... But near-term? No way.

Sterling took the bait. Stupid is...as stupid does.
A first class setup.

Cue Dr. Evil: Sure Oprah, the team can be yours for $5 million .... sorry, $5 billion dollars. If 20 owners agree the NBA can strip Sterling of his ownership and run the Clippers until they sell them. I assume Sterling would then get the money but you never know. In any case they're not going to let the Clippers go at fire-sale prices because that would drag the value of their franchises down. They'll sell them at fair market value and there will be any number of people willing to buy the team.

IMO, she’s actually worse.

Shed have to scrape together... what?... like a billion? Thats not chump-change even for somebody as wealthy as her thigh-ness. Closer to half that, and she's worth close to $3 billion alone. If she and Geffen and Ellison are working together they could buy the whole NBA.

But in this economy, it may go for bargain basement prices anyway.

Oprah wants the Clippers.
Magic wants the Clippers.
Kareem wants the Clippers.
Jordan wants the clippers.
And I think the guy that runs the evil racist Clippers organization also wants the Clippers.

Lol...he needs to gift it to Wifey the Victim :)

More confirmation it was a setup. I wouldn’t doubt if Oprey paid the hooker to make the recordings.
