Jazz reaction to the Sterling ban.

He wasn't banning her friends from coming to the game. He was mad she was with them for who knows what ever reason. The man is a dumb *** but stopping people from coming to his games is not something an owner would do

It is obvious to most people he didn't want her to bring her black friends to the game. The reason why was they were black!!!!!! So your comment who knows whatever reason. Seriously? You need to listen to the recording again.

If that was true the tards from the Westboro Baptist Church would be screwed but they are not because they are protected by the first ammendment. I find them to be completely ridiculous however I know there is no legal way to stop them.

The only good thing about Sterling is that he is not making those comments in public. It's not hard to record someone saying something bad about others when you get them mad and only record certain parts of the conversation.

Yea because they hide behind the freedom of religion thing. Sterling is a business owner. Big difference. Besides everyone hates the Westboro Baptist Church too. It isn't like people are rushing to join the "church".
 
Is it stupid?? YEP! is it horrible and racist? Yep
But I am not sure why people are surprised by a racist person in their 70's or 80's.
Racist black people and white people in America still.
Younger generations I would be surprised, but not these old people.

believe you are wrong to some degree at least. Racism is NOT age specific!! Its about environment, ignorance and up bringing to some extent. I am not quite 70 yrs old but couldn't agree more with Adam Silver's decision. Couldn't wipe the grin off my face. It HAD to be done.

Great post, Gramps! Good to see you're still alive and kicking!
 
First time I realized there was discrimination was when my Texas born dear departed mother made me go back and tell our black little league third baseman that I had ask to spend the night that he could not come. Still bothers me to this day.

I don't know about that, man. I sincerely doubt Adam Silver, an attorney himself, would just step up to the podium and spout a bunch of unenforceable crap. I'm with you on Sterling fighting, this, though-- in the likely event he does, it is going to be highly entertaining.

Didn't it start off on the edge of the bowl to begin with...?

Are we talking that same Adam Silver that has never seen any evidence of tanking in the NBA? THAT Adam Silver?

I know, it's really not that important we should just tear the document up and wipe our asses with it right? I mean shoot only hundreds of thousands men died for it right? Yeah no big deal......

You are acting like a complete buffoon. The arguments you are making about this issue are irrelevant. Every business can make rules and bylaws that employees, franchisees, and everyone else must abide by. Sterling has been one of the worst owners in pro sports history. i'll bet the league is thrilled that he put himself in a position to get kicked out. None of this has diddely squat to do with your constitutional rights as an American, so you can quit getting your panties into a bunch.
