I think she's cute.

She looks weird.  Her facial features frighten and confuse me.

He bought the team for $15 million in 1981.  He is gonna be able to sell the team for probably $750 million. Not a bad way to get kicked out of the club.

Won't he be dead soon anyway?

Apparently the NBA is suspending him for life and will try to force him to sell the team. In an ironic twist, the main candidate to buy the Clippers is Magic Johnson.

Man that is extreme.  I guess image control and all that.

All the people suing him are going to be rich!

So are we going to get an all-black league or have those plans been shelved?

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Don't listen to Grandma.  This is not the first time he has said something like this btw.  He said the Knicks were like slaves or something during the NBA finals against the Spurs, I don't know what that shit was about.  He is kind of an idiot.

It will depend on a vote by the owners now, if 3/4 are ok, he'll be kicked out and forced to sell.

Normally owners take care of their own like nobody's business.  It will be interesting to see what they do with such a PR shitshow.

Apparently they're more than willing to show Sterling the door, as he has been a league pariah for years already.

:huh:  Shouldn't you be the one taking it up with Larry Johnson?  You two are the only people who seem to want one.
