Ah, that makes more sense. Yes, being that a pro sports franchise is a commodity with such a limited availability, it is indeed a privilege to own one.

Although up until recently I am not sure that many people thought that the Clippers were a pro franchise or that associating with them in any way was a privilege.

Silver just clarified: the board of owners can, with a 3/4ths vote, revoke his ownership rights. It's part of their bylaws.

I'm sure AEG considered it a privilege every time the Clippers sent in a rent check. :yahoo:

And there it is.

Even without that, if they kicked the Clippers out of the league and started a new franchise called the LA Schooners (get it, Clippers...Schooners :laugh3:), they'd probably be OK.

That would make Stirling's assets worth virtually nothing too.

Please tell me the NBA board of governor's mandates a sale and Magic Johnson buys the team. Can't get more Hollywood than that.

Oh. My. God. :L

I don't have any idea who that is. Please tell me he doesn't hold a position of power anywhere.

Idk if you're being sarcastic or not :noidea:

But calling for a league with ''no whites'' is a little more serious than a man telling his girl he doesn't want her seen with Magic Johnson in public. Something was said just to her, but to each their own.

LJ will probably get a slap on the wrist and that's it.

The extent of my knowledge of who's who in Basketball is Larry Bird, Shazam, Magic Jordan, The Hanes T-shirt guy, Mr South Beach and that rapist. And now the old coot.

I don't know who that person is who said a no whitey league was a good idea. I was legitimately asking if he was just some random nutter or if he is responsible for anything. Because that is a really, really stupid thing to say.

Larry Johnson's comments aren't causing the league to lose revenue...

But it will, when Sterling files the lawsuit against the NBA. And role's reversed, say LJ was an owner and he told his girlfriend he didn't want her hangingout with a white guy, does it get as much publicity as this? Is the punishment as severe? Probably not.

Okay and that's why I was asking, wasn't taking a shot at you at all.

He works as a Knicks representative, not an owner or GM or anything as important.

Which is really bizarre when you consider his actual name is Donald Tokowitz.

Edit: nvm...I just got the reference

/a little slow today.
