Come on CHOP!! I hate to even associate Bill Gates name with Donald Sterling but if Bill made those comments, the same would ensue. And yes, many businesses would threaten to stop using Microsoft products if he was not voted out and the board would vote him out quicker than Donald Sterling, lol.
spoiled pampered brats acting like spoiled pampered brats
I have no dog in the hunt, I couldn't care less about what Donald Sterling says or does, but I'm amused by people who think the world revolves around them.
Maybe he can help start racial riots too
Then again, what should I expect from a man who blamed "the decision" backlash on racism
Sometimes, it's best to just STFU. His words won't influence Sterling, might actually encourage him to fight harder. But his words can help magnify racial tensions.

I mostly agree with this. You are right in terms of asking why now but not before...
But how is society supposed to progress if people don't put their foot down eventually? I'm not saying Doc, players, other owners, etc were right to allow Sterling to run wild but doing the right thing after doing the wrong thing is still better than the alternative.
they can express it, breaking their contract is all together different
and increasing racial tensions, which it will do, is immature (for lack of a better or less abrasive word)
Yeah but there is nothing to boycott, the issue is being handled.
LeBron was just saying IF it wasn't handled (a sentiment all the players feel)
He said this to Roger Mason Jr and he stupidly repeated it on Jim Rome acting like LeBron was ready to sitout next season. Not like LeBron or the Clipper guys called a press conference over it. This is why you need good union heads and not Roger Mason Jr I guess. Not like LeBron went on the ABC postgame show and said WE'RE BOYCOTTING. It was more like "We were ready to boycott if he didn't get removed"...
Like I said in a previous post, I think the issue has mostly died down. That Cooper/Sterling interview was bizarre and it seems like it mostly went under the radar.
Why should I keep to myself? You have been attacking me like a nut job lately. You are exactly like Donald Sterling, too dumb to know when to shut up. With your history of hatred for blacks and ridiculous undeserved elitist attitude, you might want to sit this conversation out. It's not going to look good for you.
All I'm saying is it would not matter to me if sterling said every white guy in Louisiana who is under forty years old who likes the New Orleans saints are retarded and should be shot would not phase me one bit.
Although I would think of him as an idiot I would not call for him to sell the team.
