OT - Clippers Owner Donald Sterling to GF -- Don't Bring Black People to My Games

I'm not going to listen to it again. But did he infer he didn't want blacks at his games or just that he didn't want his supposed girlfriend to take any black people to games, because it embarrassed him in front of his racist friends?

 

The magic part doesn't sound as clear to me. It almost seems like she is egging him on at that point trying to tread the line of racism. I dont know that the magic part would be as bad if heard by itself. It's earlier when he is going on and on about how certain races are wrong, and even goes on to tell her that she makes him sick because of it(etc) that is evidence of his disgusting outlook.

I feel you have to be critical about things like these because of how easy it is to manipulate audio with today's technology. I think I'd truly have to weigh the evidence before calling him a racist or not. From what I've heard, he is kind of a scumbag. So this has come as no surprise to anyone. The stuff on the tapes is unacceptable and if it is determined that he did indeed say them he will be shunned mightily.

 

I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. He probably meant both.

 

Are you for real bro?

 

You got it.

Yes, I am. Sterling said he doesn't want black people at his games, including Magic Johnson. How is Magic Johnson, whom Sterling regarded as a class act, going to attract any sort of crowd that will be detrimental to the Clippers organization?

 

What, is it in the Terms of Service now? That I have to read part of the thread, before posting as if I know what I'm talking about?

Here's the thing......are you just arguing to argue? I don't know you, but if you don't understand what El Prez is saying you are straight up clueless. You claim to be from the NYC, but don't get his posts?

 

Please break it down for me then.

 

Interesting.

The only thing I will say, I don't agree with him but he is entitled to his own feelings. And had this not gotten out. No one, the world wouldn't have known and life for him and general would have gone on as normal.

It's too bad this slipped out on him

 

Nevermind......You're just bored I can see. Don't know who with or where you were raised, but you should see and understand what Prez is saying. I'll leave this one alone.

 

If Sterling doesn't want to attract a crowd full of minorities, maybe he should get rid of all the black players on the Clips, and have an all-white team. I wonder what those crowds would be like?

 

The girl is smoking hot... Just checked out her pictures finally.

Damn... Chocolate goddess.

 

It didn't slip out accidentally. Who made the 10-minute tape? The girlfriend named V.?

 

"Ghetto fab"

....so, like the Lloyd Center mall?

 

I was born and raised in New York City and spent the last few years in California. I don't see how that's relevant. Where were you raised?

I do have an idea of what he may have been insinuating, which I took as racist and incorrect, but I don't want to just assume that. That's why I gave you the opportunity to explain to me what he was saying and you couldn't. If what Prez is saying is so simple and obvious why can't you enlighten me? I'm genuinely interested in his point.

 

There's a simple solution. Just have Donald Sterling and Wyc Grousbeck trade teams. Sterling could reintroduce Boston's "Best White Player Available" strategy.

 

We all have things that we believe and think that we would never voice to anyone if it would offend them. Nobody knows how Paul Allen views black people. He may hate them. But what's not known can't hurt them. Paul has a right to feel how he feels about anyone he wants to feel about. He lives in a country that gives him that right. I'm not sure this footage is any of our business or anyone outside this inner circle. So he doesn't like black people, he didnt ask ESPN for an interview so he could voluntarily publicize this. If it was given to him as option by his girlfriend to take it to TMZ or not. He probably would have told her NOT to.

It got out, he is in trouble now. It's too bad for him because it is probably the beginning of the end of his ownership of the Clippers.

 

I remember he didn't want "the blacks" living at an apartment complex he owned because they'll "stink up the joint."
