Sterling plans to file the lawsuit Friday afternoon. The lawsuit follows former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer agreeing to a deal to buy the Clippers for $2 billion. Sterling was forced to sell the team after he was recorded saying he didn’t want his girlfriend to bring black people to his games. That deal was negotiated with Sterling’s wife, Shelly who was given authority to sell the team.
Even if he wins, that’s about a week’s revenue for the league. It’s like Dr. Evil saying, “I want… ONE MILLLLLLLLLLLION DOLARS!”
Stay newsworthy, Donald! It’s your aphrodisiac.
I hope he loses and has to pay all the legal fee’s of the NBA lawyers, just proving what we all know, he is a piece of trash, knew that when the clippers were in San Diego.
Wait, can he do that? I thought he was declared mentally unfit.
Note that he plans to file the lawsuit. Mmmkay. He reminds me of Karl Rove on election night, his leverage is gone, and he’s the only one who doesn’t know it.
