    Yoooo! I just thought of something.....

    Somebody mentioned Doc being all passive about the situation and not letting the team talk and what not. What if the higher ups told him like "Aye, if you or any player say anything to the press, u getting canned boy."

    What if there was a ploy to keep a player/coach inspired call for action was deaded so it could be handled "appropriately" by the league so it could salvage its integrity? Whoever made the post that inspire my thought process said, "Doc was looking all passive and shook, while Silver getting all the credit looking like the hero."....

    The white man and the "? friendly " NBA save the day....all while keeping the "angry ? player" at bay.

    we all know people are HEAVILY influenced by what they see on tv. What kind of message do you think a sit out or refusal to play by a mostly black league would have sent to the masses? Black basketball players staring up for what's right. Similar to Ali/Jim Brown. What if these players with world wide influence decided to protest, and the league andowners had to give in? Would that provide a good example to the easily influenced masses? Or a "bad" influence showing what a group of organized and common minded black people are actually capable of?

    Think about it.....

    Rochelle Sterling, estranged wife of Donald Sterling, is shown in a screen grab of a video where she poses as a health inspector. (ABCNews Photo)
    LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Allegations of racist comments made by Donald Sterling's wife may torpedo possible plans to transfer ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers to her.

    In a 2006 lawsuit, tenants accused Rochelle Sterling of making disparaging comments about Hispanics. She denied the claims.

    ABC News obtained a video of Rochelle Sterling posing as a health inspector to allegedly gain access to tenant apartments illegally. It is unclear what impact the video may have on the possible plan to transfer ownership.

    She was also sued before for making comments that 'Latinos were filthy' and called somebody a 'black mfer'. Im assumin yall know about that already. Doc supported her. He's the worst smh

    Ellen DeGeneres Joins Boycott Of Dorchester Collection Hotel Chain Over Brunei's Anti-? Penal Code
    Brunei Returns to the Stoning Age

    The tiny sultanate is planning a return to medieval modes of shariah law, with vicious punishments for extramarital sex and anti-Muslim defamation. And nobody’s blinking an eye.
    I won't be visiting the Hotel Bel-Air or the Beverly Hills Hotel until this is resolved.
    -ELLEN
    Saw this on the Huffington Post. Notice how she simply saw the situation and took a stand immediately. I WONT BE VISITING HOTEL BEL-AIR UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED..."

    She didnt wait for Bel-Air Hotel management to act. She didnt show up to her talk show with her ? pants suit turned inside out like a ? idiot. SHE USED HER STATUS AND INFLUENCE TO MAKE A STATEMENT.

    Notice how nobody attacked anybody who was saying she should boycott. Because to everybody but cowardly ? it was a given. Its to be excepted of whites and ? to stand up for themselves and to have their stars make a statement like this.

    ? ? NOPE. Lets wait and see what the white man does for us before we use our influence ourselves SMH Just an example...glad i saw this.

    This is a little different though. You don't think the players would have boycotted too if it was something as simple as a hotel. I get what you're saying, but I'd give them at least this much credit. If it was something like a hotel manager saying some racist ? , they would have boycotted. I could be wrong though.

    lol @ the pants suit ? though.

    I don't know what them ? was thinking with that ? .

    Lol it's alot different. Ellen doesn't work for the Hotel so her boycotting it is different from boycotting your boss. With that said as it's been said before the shirt/jersey ? was stupid and shouldn't have been done. If you going to go on the court and make a statement that then just take a potential fine and come out whole team in black wife beaters and shorts w/o a Clippers logo and just stand there til they make ya'll move and walk off.

    They can't transfer it to her. The league wouldn't approve that deal. If he chooses to contest the power play to sell then it will likely be tied up in court for a while

    If yall get a chance listen to a call-in satellite radio show, like Mad dog radio or anythign like that. Its CRAZY how the 'the white man is the real victim' mentality is so rampant.

    Of course comment sections are 1 thing, but to actually hear how some/most white people r on the whole other spectrum of this story is mind bogling. You wont hear it irl like at work or whatever b/c they dont have anonymity face to face and r too scared to say it.

    Jerseys for any sport are too ? expensive. Hundreds of dollars is ridiculous. Fans should be able to buy authentic jerseys for no more than $100.

    Greedy ass people in power though.

    Forget the Grand Canyon, Pyramids, and the Great Wall of China. This is nothing in this world as amazing and awe inspiring as the ability of some white people to paint themselves as the downtrodden victims in the U.S. You have to give it to them.

    Jimmy went to visit his friends at Legends Barbershop here in LA to ask them what they think about the Donald Sterling scandal. They had a lot of thoughts.

    NAACP chapter president resigns

    LOS ANGELES -- The president of the Los Angeles chapter of the NAACP resigned Thursday, following scrutiny of his plan to give Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling an award for promoting civil rights.

    Leon Jenkins was to present Sterling with a "lifetime achievement award'' later this month. Jenkins rescinded that offer after a recording surfaced on which Sterling disparaged black men.

    In a letter to the national leader of the nation's oldest civil rights organization, Jenkins wrote, "In order to separate the Los Angeles NAACP and the NAACP from the negative exposure I have caused the NAACP, I respectfully resign my position as President of the Los Angeles NAACP.''

    The decision to give Sterling a "lifetime achievement award'' May 15 at the 100th anniversary celebration of the Los Angeles chapter had been questioned by some civil rights activists, who cited allegations of discrimination in Sterling's past.

    The U.S. Justice Department sued Sterling in August 2006, alleging housing discrimination in the Koreatown area of Los Angeles. In November 2009, Sterling agreed to pay $2.73 million to settle allegations that he refused to rent apartments to Hispanics and blacks and to families with children.

    Also in 2009, the year after Jenkins was first elected president in Los Angeles, the chapter honored Sterling with an award.

    After the recording of Sterling having a private conversation with a woman became public, Jenkins backtracked.

    "There is a personal, economic and social price that Mr. Sterling must pay for his attempt to turn back the clock on race relations,'' he said.

    Jenkins explained that Sterling had been selected owing to his history of donating to minority charities and giving game tickets to inner-city children. The Donald T. Sterling Charitable Foundation gave $5,000 to the NAACP's Los Angeles chapter in 2010, according to tax records, and Sterling was listed as his foundation's only contributor. There were no records of further NAACP contributions in 2011 or 2012, the latest years for which records were available.

    A telephone message and email left after business hours with the Los Angeles chapter were not immediately returned.

    On Tuesday, NBA commissioner Adam Silver banned Sterling from the league for life, fined the real estate magnate $2.5 million, and said he wanted the league's board of governors to make Sterling sell the team.

    In a statement accompanying the resignation announcement, the national NAACP said it is "developing guidelines for its branches to help them in their award selection process.''

    Yeah this is hilarious.

    The constant cry of "Sterling's private conversations shouldn't have any bearing on how people judge him, and that what he said wasn't THAT bad," directly contradicts the collective attitude displayed by the same people who were hellbent on vilifying Trayvon Martin (and justifying his death), for saying "? " in a private conversation with Rachel Jeantel.

    Some are even calling in to WLS 890AM in Chicago (a Conservative talk radio station) saying Jay-Z should be banned from being courtside since he's been wearing the 5 Percenter chain, and in the caller's words "they're that group that wants to ? all white people." And that Larry Johnson is "racist" for stating that it would be better for Blacks to have their own league.

    So Sterling getting that award was just a money thing with some free tickets?

    I always imagined lifetime achievement awards had the bar set higher than that. But it's hard to believe them ? didn't do some damn background check. Huge over sight if so, I can't fault them for getting rid of him. Some body gotta take blame and be made example to save face.

    You know that ? got the resign or be fired offer he can't refuse.

    I heard that ? on that show the past few nights. It's crazy how many white folks were trying to preface with "Yeah what he said was wrong but why should he be punished?" Or the "Well if a black guy said it it wouldn't be seen as that bad" or even bringing up Larry Johnson. Even the hosts were openly disagreeing with each other from show to show with some saying Sterling shouldn't lose his team and others coming on right after saying "The show before was wrong. Sterling needs to be kicked out". One hosts even said "Any caller trying to compare Larry Johnson go pick up a book and learn why his statement is nowhere near as bad as Sterling" lol. Watching white folks debate this ? is really exposing how many think it should be fine to be privately racist so long as you're not waving a Confederate flag in your front lawn
