"This has been some of the best news that I have heard in a while. If you haven't heard, Last week, 81 year old LA Clippers Owner Donald Sterling was secretly recorded by his 31 year old girlfriend, V Stiviano while he was making some very racist remaks toward Africain American NBA players and Latino Players. These remarks were so disrespectful on so many levels, it sparked a huge outrage worldwide. This is so bad, President Obama has even commented on these horrible racist remarks Mr. Sterling has made. Some say well they were made in private, and my response to that is, it dosen't matter if they were said publicly or in private, things like that should not be said period, especially when the team you own is 90% black and the sports league that your in is consisted of 80% black players.
The Players of The Clippers were so outraged that there boss is a racist Bigot, at a recent playoffs game against the Golden State Warriors, if Adam Silver, The NBA Commisioner had not come down with hammer against Mr. Sterling, The Clippers were going to boycott the game, but around 2:00pm eastern standard time yerterday, Adam Silver The NBA Commisioner gave the offical annoucement of the lifetime ban. Not only is Mr. Sterling banned from the NBA for life, he was also fined $2.5 million dollars. Also with a majority vote from The NBA Board of Governors, which consist of all the NBA team owners, will take a vote to force Mr. Sterling to sell The Clippers, which trust me if that happens, Mr. Sterling won't sell the team for cheap. Mr. Sterling purchased The Clippers in 1981 for $12 million dollars. It's reported that The Clippers Franchise is worth between $700 million to about $1 billion dollars, so Mr. Sterling may still get the last laugh, if he decides to sell, or is forced too. I will keep all of my readers posted when new information comes in, and im pretty sure this story isn't over."
