Clipper's owner Donald Sterling in deep trouble for racist remarks

Yeah, this was just the tip of the iceberg with this guy. Apparently he has been involved in housing discrimination lawsuits and has a long history of discrimination not only against blacks but various minorities. It is being reported that this guy has been a douche for awhile but it is just becoming known to a bigger audience. This guy has already made his money of the NBA so if they try to force him to sell the team it's kinda like....mehhh, he's 81 or something years old and he bought the clippers for 18 million and they are worth 500 million now. He's still winning as Charlie Sheen would say. This is going to be a polarizing issue no matter what because people all have different views on the subject but IMO the NBA f'd this up bad because they knew about this guy but the only color that matters is green. It'll be some fake outrage followed by blah blah blah but the only way he sells or does whatever the NBA wants him to do is if the people who are offended find a way to hit his pockets or the NBA's pockets or image.

He's not a GM or anything as well is he? It's obviously terrible for image, but I don't imagine owners actually have anything to do with how a team is run. Who are they even accountable to, how could anyone possibly "force" him to sell his team over a personal view? The guy sounds like a right piece of shit, but he is a billionaire and owns the team. Tough.
