I prefer to wait and see...I wouldn't recommend anyone patting their backs based on conjecture...not just yet. If and when a deal is done and done...well, then let's talk. Until then...any speculation as to the exact specifics of what any given deal/agreement entails is redundant.
Should Donald Sterling be stripped of team ownership in the NBA?

at this point it is REALLY obvious , that's your only hope(Don't worry YOU can pick the clippers avatar of your choice)
but trust me when I bring up the fact,,, (Once again)DONALD STERLING is DONE running the CLIPPERS

My only hope? lol...I have no hopes...just facts...which I'm am waiting for. That's all. BUT...Yes, you are right...Donald Sterling is done running the clippers. No one is arguing that. That has been true since he was banned, prior to our disagreeing. Our bet was based on your prediction that NOBODY in the Sterling Family will retain any ownership. Like I said, when and if that happens...then hats off to you
However, until then...like i already said...further attempts at predicting how this will pan out is REDUNDANT...So until then...absolutelyYou are right...Donald Sterling is done running the clippers.

Like I said, when and if that happens...then hats off to you
but our BET was based on CONTROLLING OWNERSHIP as I remember , either way...ESPN(A really good source) has reported the sale has been approved (or negotiation to sell) by STERLING..AS you probably know , if I were a buzzard I would be circling the your carcass (on the bet) as we speak....these terms are fine based on everything but your assumption that GETTING TO COURT WINS FOR YOU... NO WAY... who ENDS up owner after it is settled is the only fair bet outcome...ANYBODY WITH RESOURCES can force a frivolous lawsuit ... this is about winning in the END...IF you don't like the FAIR BET that was offered by me (long ago) I shall let you out of said "bet" .. that would be the equivalent of claiming victory in the first quarter of a game based on leading at that point....seems to me you have been pressing a bad position on this basis of knowing the family(since day one of the thread) ...well that probably doesn't give the historical perspective( of prior sports bannings) that might actually be more relative to reality
I believe the bet you agreed to was that "if the collective owners have the votes and Sterling and his wife/family are removed as owners - I LOSE".
In this case the owners may not even be voting and AGAIN...Need to wait and see if DS and his wife/family are removed as owners. Nothing about controlling interest. Just that they would be gone, gone, gone, lol. Look, if Donald and Shelly retain no ownership of the team and are forced out by the NBA...by all means...I will uphold my end of the bet. I've been looking at some cool Clipper's avatars (for you, haha), but if things don't go my way...hey, saves me the trouble...

They're probably going to vote anyways. Why recognize mrs sterling as a controlling owner? You never have before.
Truth is they either see the writing on the wall and are cashing out or they're trying to trick the NBA. If they're cashing out they were still forced into it no matter who handles the sale AND whoever takes over will need to be approved by the NBA. so it's out of the family regardless and the NBA is in the drivers seat. Face it, some people made bold remarks and it's looking like theyre dead wrong right about now. Thank you for bringing legal matter into a non legal affair

still banging that drum????..I reported (via ESPN ) THAT ACCORDING TO THE LEAGUE ... banning includes ENTIRE ownership...as per NBA by-laws,,,,,,,, stop running down legitimate info based on your lack of knowledge of said info...LOOK IT UP FIRST ,,,,,,, ONCE AGAIN....you can BACK OUT of the FAIR BET offered ..no hurt feelings here
Hard to argue that I was wrong when all I commented on was my interest in seeing him try to fight this and it end up in court due to my own curiosity. I'm actually pretty disappointed that this is apparently being handled without the league forcing sale as the legal aspect of the whole situation is all that had me interested.
