@cicerone imposter,
With all due respect to you (and I mean it sincerely), why do you think David is homophobic? As the fierce libertarian that he happens to be, he clearly is a supporter of same-sex marriage. Over the last few years, I've noticed that some liberal members have insulted conservatives by accusing them of having homosexual tendencies. I always thought that was oddly inconsistent. No, I'm not a conservative. I'm just making an observation. Just sayin'.

Anyway, that's all beside the point. I just love these online spats! Twisted Evil

@OmSigDAVID,
Your claim that cars kill more people than guns triggered the question.

Because you're so stupid that gun violence in the US is the most in the world,
you can't seem to reconcile the obvious with your love of guns - oh,
your penis.

@wmwcjr,
Why would he accuse anyone of be a homosexual if he's not homophobic? I support any group that's discriminated against. I don't have any shame supporting gays and lesbians.

@OmSigDAVID,
Well, in your case - and many others on a2k that support guns over common sense, you relegate your manlihood, ergo to your guns. You don't show any intelligence on any subject - including guns.

For this analogy, I admit it. What's your point? I'm not obsessed with the word penis - like you claim I do.

I have pointed out that the Founders of this Republic
created it subject to the condition that it have NO jurisdiction
over a citizen 's possession of defensive guns.

That has nothing to do with gender nor with sexuality.

Report: NBA says Donald Sterling asked V. Stiviano to lie
By Steve Almasy, CNN
May 21, 2013

(CNN) -- The 30-page NBA document detailing the charges against Donald Sterling accuses the longtime owner of the Los Angeles Clippers of trying to persuade V. Stiviano to tell a league investigator she altered a recording and it wasn't Sterling making racist remarks on the audio, the Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.

On Monday, the NBA released a summary of the charges that could lead to NBA owners voting to strip Sterling and his wife, Shelly, of the franchise they have co-owned for 33 years.

In it, the NBA said: "In the course of the investigation into Mr. Sterling's conduct, it was discovered that relevant evidence was destroyed, false and misleading evidence was provided to the NBA's investigator, and LAC issued a false and misleading press statement regarding this matter."

The Times reported that the NBA document it obtained alleges Donald Sterling and Stiviano met on May 2, about a week after the recording containing racist remarks was released by TMZ and just before Stiviano was interviewed by Barbara Walters on ABC.

"Sterling asked Stiviano to tell the NBA that she lied in her previous meeting with the league," the Times reported.

The newspaper also reported the NBA is prepared to argue at a June 3 meeting of the NBA Board of Governors that evidence shows that Sterling and his wife are not estranged and that she helped prepare the team's press release after the recordings were aired. Team President Andy Roeser also was in on the drafting of the statement that questioned the validity of the recording and suggested it was released by someone seeking revenge against Donald Sterling, according to the newspaper's account of the NBA document.

The Times report also said the NBA suggested Roeser heard the recording on April 9, weeks before it went online, after a Clippers employee sent Roeser a copy.The document says Roeser told the employee to delete the audio file and text messages about it from a cell phone. Roeser is now on indefinite leave from the team.

The paper said Sterling's lawyer, Maxwell Blecher, didn't respond to a request for comment.

When asked by a CNN producer at a Tuesday news conference what evidence had been destroyed, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said he wouldn't comment on the specifics of the investigation.

Silver said on Tuesday he is confident the league will be able to force the Sterlings to sell the franchise for violating the NBA constitution.

But, the new commissioner said, he would prefer the Sterlings sell the team without the league's pushing.

The chances of that happening appear unlikely. Sterling, through his lawyer, has sent a letter to the league saying he won't pay a $2.5 million fine and threatening to sue if he isn't afforded due process.

Shelly Sterling has said she wants to maintain her 50% stake in the franchise.

"It is their team to sell," Silver, who has been commissioner for three months, said ahead of the league's draft lottery. "(They) know what the league's point of view is. If (they) wanted to sell the team on some reasonable timetable, I prefer (they) sell it than we go through this process."

On Monday, the National Basketball Association officially started the process of terminating the Sterlings' ownership rights. It sent Donald Sterling a list of charges that the billionaire real estate investor has until May 27 to answer.

The league scheduled the June 3 special board of governors meeting for each side to present evidence.

Silver also addressed CNN's question about a report that Sterling demanded a three-month extension, saying the 80-year-old owner needed to abide by the NBA constitution, which puts a firm timeline on the process of removing an ownership group.

In order to terminate the Sterlings' franchise rights, 75% (23) of the 30 team owners would have to vote to sustain the charge and force a sale. Because Sterling is banned from any NBA activities, he is not allowed to vote, but the Clippers will have a vote, the NBA said.

In the case of a forced sale, the league does have a duty to the Sterlings to sell the team for the highest possible price, Silver said. The commissioner told reporters if it gets to that point, the league will hire investment bankers to conduct the sale.

The league said it has been damaged by Sterling's racist remarks to Stiviano, which were posted online in April by TMZ and aired in an interview with CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360."...

I watched snippets from a Silver press conference this morning - he seems confident that the contract contains the language to oust Sterling. Don't know how a wife figures in yet.

@hawkeye10,
My opinion - if I were him - I'd have done the same thing. He's playing to the players, the sponsors, and the league fans. Not a hard call for him, considering his job.

I just don't know if he BELIEVES the language is firm - or he just wants to say that for effect.

Anyhow, still watching with interest. First benchmark of action: June 3.

The owner vote is a done deal, the first test comes when Sterling tries to get a judge to enter an injunction staying the NBA order till the matter is heard in court.

V. Stiviano denies sexual relationship with Clippers' owner

The woman who recorded Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling making racist comments agreed during an appearance on the Dr. Phil show on Wednesday that she had a fabulous body, but insisted that she never had sex with Sterling.

"I mean look at my body," V. Stiviano, the woman at the center of the controversy, said when asked to respond to Sterling's assessment of her. "I personally think I have a great, fabulous body. In regards to why would he say that I like to have sex, I don't know. Only he would know that. I can't get into his brain."

Stiviano was pressed repeatedly by the talk show host, Phil McGraw, about her relationship with Sterling. What work had she done, he asked, to earn the Ferrari, two Bentleys, Range Rover and the$1.8 million condo he had reportedly given her?

"He liked me," she said. "He cared for me. He didn't have a very close relationship with his own children. Whatever the reason was that Mr. Sterling did what he did for me, he knows that. I didn't ask for it out of the blue. I didn't request it."

Stiviano, 31, recorded Sterling telling her that she should not post photos of herself online with black people or bring black people to the Clippers games. The recording was released by someone with whom she had shared it, she said during the interview.

Sterling's comments led to his being banned for life by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned and being fined $2.5 million. The other league owners have been urged to force him to sell the team.

And according to the NBA's formal charges, obtained Tuesday by the Los Angeles Times, Sterling attempted to persuade V. Stiviano to say he was not responsible for the racist comments.

Stiviano said that she had no job title and that her days ranged from attending NBA board meetings to shopping with Sterling for clothes and socks.

"It's rare that Mr. Sterling did things for himself," she said. "He was living in a bubble."

Sterling's wife has sued Stiviano for the return of more than $2.5 million in gifts that she allegedly received, including the luxury cars and the condo, according to lawyers.

Asked about a comment that she was paid off the books, Stiviano said she did not receive a W2 form, or wage and tax statement, while she was employed by Sterling. Asked whether she had paid taxes on what she made, she responded, "I cannot answer that."

Nor would she say what she had been paid.

Asked why she had appeared in public shielded by a visor, she said she was hiding the pain, but also protecting her face after having had a laser procedure. McGraw asked her if she enjoyed the attention.

"Absolutely," she said. "Are you kidding me? I get to experience firsthand what it is to be a celebrity in L.A.," she said.

Stiviano said that she had been introduced to Sterling by a mutual friend. He suggested she might want to work for his non-profit but when she called him a few months later, he did not remember her, she told McGraw.

"He asked me to send a couple of pictures which was kind of weird for me but it is L.A. so after all I said OK, why not?" she said.

She denied that they had a sexual encounter during that first interview and said that she did not think it inappropriate to accepts gifts from a married man.

"Absolutely not," she said.
