LA NAACP President Announces Resignation After Plan to Honor Sterling

[Asclepias]

Explain again slowly what right the league has to fine an owner for a personal opinion and then force said owner to sell?

He signed a contract as a franchise owner.

What an interesting contract that would be to read.

I tried Google, but I can't seem to find it.

.

See if you can find one for McDonalds. Same concept.

Do you suppose they have similar conditions for players. They'd have to ban almost all of them for saying '******' and for bashing homos.

 

[Asclepias]

Like that is supposed to be any less racist? Bigots deluxe.

Are you saying the NBA is racist?

How did you get that? I was talking about Johnson.

Why is it not racist for other leagues to have all white owners?

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Except he never said a negro league. He said a league with all black owners.

How did you type that with all that jizz on your keyboard?

What the hell are you talking about, CrossBurner?

Because it's not a precondition, it's a circumstance.

Yes very similar and players do get fined for comments and giving their opinion. You must not keep up on basketball even though your profess to be a coach.

Cons will masturbate over this for weeks

Since democrats are the real conservatives these days, they've been masturbating over racism and procreating racism for decades.

That post above makes no sense. I suspect RM of the 'velvet fascism' that aligns the racist far right with corporate America. The NAACP blew a chunk out of that alliance.

There are black people who want the NBA to be racist. It isn't quite racist enough to suit.

Wouldn't racism be a circumstance?

Those people must not have an iota of business sense.

That would be public statements. All other crimes are okay. I have never heard of sports figure punished for something said in their own home. Up until Donald Sterling only Paula Deen had been punished for something she said in her kitchen. To her husband.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Katzndogz, once the statements became public Sterling became vulnerable.

 

[Gracie]

Why should he feel he needs to resign? He didn't say it. He had no clue Sterling thought that way. Racists usually don't brag about it. Then again, IS it racist what he said in private?

Slippery slope there.

Once a statement is made public then it becomes a public statement. Players have been at home tweeting and gotten fined. JR Smith comes to mind. You should really pay more attention to things that go on in the NBA if you are going to argue. From my knowledge no players have been dumb enough to be taped saying something racist.

Embarrassment. Sense of responsibility. He did the right thing by stepping down regardless of if he knew or not.

If they were fined every time they said ****** they'd all be broke. And I love basketball and I know a lot about it. But the NBA isn't really basketball. It's pro wrestling with a hoop and a ball.

A hoop, a ball, and ghetto-baggy pants.

Next season hoodies?

I guess its a good thing because I have yet to hear one of them say it. You dont know anything about basketball. Thats pretty obvious from our earlier conversation. How did you not know NBA players got fined for their opinions?

What bothers me is there was no outrage at his 2009 lifetime achievement award from the NNACP. That award was given right before he had to pay 2.2 million in damages for discrimination. So it was known what he was accused of prior to the award being given.

Donald Sterling's donations to NAACP led to latest award


Jenkins seems like a scapegoat IMO. I don't think it fair for him.

First off, explain how you draw the conclusion about my knowledge (alleged lack thereof) of basketball.
As for players getting fined for incessantly for saying '******' (proof in itself that I have lots of basketball experience), if they are then the lack of publicity would be a second major scandal.
