OT: Why the Clippers will lose good players and fail to attract free agents

[WearShades]

The Clippers celebrate Black History Month in the wrong month - Ball Don't Lie - NBA

I guess Donald Sterling can fight for those white super star basketball players.

What's wrong with this picture?

1. Black History month is in February!

2. The 2 guys in the ad are white.

3. One of them is racist.

4. The ad implies that only Black kids are "underpriveliged." Many Hispanic White, Native American (ok, even some Asian) kids are underprivileged as well. Many Black families do quite well.

5. How is the parent of an "underprivileged" kid going to be able to afford a ticket for himself?

6. How will the Clippers determined who is underprivileged? Just by looking at them?

What a joke!

I think Blake Griffin identifies as an African American (his father is black, his mother is white), but that aside everything you said is right on.

David Sterling is the Al Davis of the NBA. Only he could do something so stupid.

Blake's dad is Haitian...so technically there's no issue w/ that.

Blake is the bi-racial facial.
