No Affirmative Action for billionaires

Random thoughts on the Donald Sterling saga.

The NBA players & their union would be wise to think long & hard about the above quote.

Millions of African-American men endure far more for much, much less. I doubt public opinion will stay on their side as that reality bubbles to the surface.

Doc Rivers saying that he wishes his team did not have to react is a cop out. Millions of African-American men have to react (or not as the case may be) to racism everyday. It's surprising he doesn't realize this. If he is to continue taking Clippers paychecks he might need to shut up - his indignation sounds hollow.

I doubt Mark Cuban walks down many dark streets late at night. Better he give a true to life example of prejudice than make one up.
