You are so hung up on the NAACP, but that is a topic completely separate from this, no matter how desperately you keep trying to drag it in.

He already received the same award from the NAACP in 08. The organization that is supposed to ADVANCE the group of people that he is supposedly stating he does not like. WHERE is the boycott of the NAACP by Snoop, Magic and LeBron?
Where is it? It is okay for the ol cracka to contribute to the cause but if he does not like his mistress flaunting about and he says something about it he should lose his ownership? He told her he did NOT care what she did, just do not bring it to his games.
Where is the racism in that?
Sure it should, as I have already stated. But it has nothing to do with this topic. At most this topic is an example to use against them. There is no way to use the NAACP against this situation, though.

I like how you are trying to say I have an issue with the NAACP. That is not the point. I am pointing out the hypocrisy of this situation as this guy, who seems to be openly racist, is ok with the organization that is against views like he seems to have.
The NAACP has helped many people to accomplish things in their lives that they may not have had the opportunity to attain otherwise. Supporting a racist should be exposed don't you think?
All those that are acting like this is a single, isolated incident are grossly misrepresenting the situation.

Big deal. The guy had a private opinion. So what? What's next? Bitching about the streak in everyone's underwear?
I agree 100%.

Nor are they mentioning the extremely racist response back to him.......
IMHO these racist remarks in return to a racist should be looked down upon just as much....
You dont have to be white to be an ignorant racist

Sunday? Anyway, with all the uproar and Jesse Jackson and Sharpton getting their two-cents in, it will be hard for him not to sell the team or to hand it over outright to one of his heirs. He's in his early 80s, so maybe giving up the reigns on the Clippers will do him good....island living, lots of rum on the beach. I remember when Marge Schott (sp?) was forced to give up her ownership in the American Cincinnati Reds baseball club because of some comments painting Hitler in a good light, another example of someone's private thoughts intruding on their business ownership.
