Where have you been? Sterling’s wife filed a lawsuit in March against the gold digger seeking “her property” worth about $1.8 million in gifts back from her. California the partner has community property rights. So where is the bimbo gonna come up with all that money?

Then, there is a huge legal mess to deal with isn’t there? Hope this girl saved some of the money Sterling gave her.

What ever happened to "I disagree with what you said but I support your right to say it."? I like that a lot better than this modern day witch hunt.

Agree. Too bad they're only hunting straights and whites. Everyone else is off limits.

Well, either she has to fleece some other sucker or engage in nefarious activities like surreptitiously recording some rich dude to bring about his demise so that others can swoop in to buy up a damaged brand.

If you recall Sterling bought the Clippers for practically nothing, $12.5 million in 1981. Before this controversy the franchise was probably worth around $600 million.

If Magic Johnson is involved with this to try and buy the Clippers at a fire sale price then I’ve lost any remaining respect I had for the guy.

From what I heard on the audio was that Sterling knew she was screwing around and accepted it but just wanted her to be discreet about it.

I wasn’t implying anything. I was responding to Kaslin. I’m sure his money had nothing to do with her hanging with him.

He’s 81 years old so it should not be such a big deal to sell the team when he can get maximum price for it. Sell out at the top of the phony bubble economy created by the Federal Reserve.

Get his 500-600 million for selling and buy a hockey team which will give him less racist type hassles

just doing some simple math, the Clippers franchise went up in value an average of 12% per year, every year, since 1981.

Is there any greater return on investment than major league sports franchises in recent decades?????

Lets see. Steinbrenner was banned for life from baseball for illegal actions against his players and convicted of a felony. But they let him back in

But this guy doesn’t like black people is illegally recorded saying so by some slut girlfriend and is now banned for life and fined 2.5 million

Somebody please square this circle

And the boycott for the deplorable condition of inner city schools, and the continuous blocking (by Dem politicians) of voucher programs, and the over 70% illegitimacy rate in the black community begins.....when?

I believe the number of blacks in baseball is around 8% but that’s deceptive because black Hispanic players aren’t considered to be black.
