    I have heard for years and years he was an idiot owner. Now I am hearing it is no surprise he has held racist views.

    I guess the NCAAP just didn't do their homework.

    Once he is suspended and forced to sell the Clippers, I hope someone will also use this to point out how unequal we are in this country. Just because a guy is filthy rich, why should he be allowed to date a young, very pretty gal 1/3 his age?

      Bad people can still do good things.

      Bad people who place importance on public perception will do good things to divert attention from their badness.

          Was, as in past tense, since apparently they have changed their mind.

          The NAACP has announced on its official Twitter account that Sterling will not receive the award.

          But in light of racist comments attributed to Sterling on a recording that surfaced on the TMZ website, the banquet plans might be changing.

            Extended phone conversation tapes released. Turns out Sterling has thoughts on Jews, too

              Now Silver will definitely do something. My guess is Sterling gets Schott gunned.

                It would be nice to see Chris Paul and Griffin take their services somewhere else. I know a team they could play for and they wouldn't even have to uproot their family and move.

                  A great weekend for CS.com: posters defending Bundy AND Donald Sterling. Well done all.

                      Wow, it has gotten really bad for the Lakers if they are now wishing they were the Clippers.

                            It's one thing to have a terrible record, its another to wish you were the franchise who has been one of the worst in NBA history. Lol at DDD for wanting to be a clip.

                              How does wanting a player or coach from another team make you want to be that team? DDD is right.

                                Lakers of old would scoff at wanting anything associated with the Clippers.
