NBA: Sarver v Sterling

[MinnesotaFats]

So one guy is literally forced out of the league, the other a small fine?

What's the difference...Sterling at least fukked hot black chicks!

Good question. It's a punishment that should be equal across the board

 

[Gary]

Sterling did a horrible recorded racist comments over the phone that even the NBA league couldn't take it.

NBA?? Is that still a league

 

[MinnesotaFats]

Sterling did a horrible recorded racist comments over the phone that even the NBA league couldn't take it.

So did Sarver. 5 recorded N words, plus the sexual harassment incidents.

Sterling GF was black. Hard to say Sterling was a racist when he's balls deep in black clam.

Frankly- the punishments should be reversed here, each receiving the others, or Sarver forced out...afterall, what's good for the goose.

Bigger question. Why is the N word racist? It's used in music, movies, in black dialog and if you're from places like MPLS, Joliet, Detroit, Cleveland it's used to describe both whites & blacks of a certain character.

Weaponizing words is a slippery slope.

 

[Gary]

N word is offensive because people choose to be victims over a word that holds no power.
