Where ya hearing that figure ? I heard some naacp spokesperson claim it was " insignificant ", but would not offer an amount.
So, next time anyone , even a billionaire, gives you $ 50K, be sure to scoff and roll your eyes at it.
I'm afraid I can't give a direct location as to where I heard it. It may have been on Morning Joe, or some other show on MSNBE, but 50 grand was the high number. I want to say what I heard was 15 to 50 thousand. I watch many different news outlets and on this I can't remember. Sorry

So 15-50k will get an established & known racist a lifetime achievement award ( or 2 ) from the NAACP ?
Huh. I did not know that.
My guess is that Sterling gave MUCH more, but that's all the NAACP will fess up to. It's not like Sterling will be able to call them out on if, if he's gonna try to keep the team.

It's hard to really get all the info on something like this. It is just sad money will corrupt all. Eventually we will breed our way out of a lot of this bigotry but history shows we will find other ways to separate ourselves from the each other. All it takes is a river, lake or mountain range to spawn separatist thoughts. To coin an old term, people from the other side of the tracks.

And she'd gladly take what SHE has, which sounds like a fairly sizable bank account, and living far better than most , for being called brain dead by the rest of the world.

I'm still wondering if the NBA will institute lifetime Bans on all of the following:
Any player who utters the N word at home, club, or the court of play.
Any player who utters the B word at home, club, or on the phone.
Any player who utters the slang term for prostitute at home, club, or on the phone.
Any player who utters a derogatory slur for gays at home, club, or on the phone.

Pretty amazing that a guy who did nothing wrong, in any legal sense, gets into this much trouble.
He broke no laws. He didn't drive drunk or do drugs. He denied no one their rights. He used no racial slur. And he was at home, having a private conversation.
And for uttering his asinine views, he loses his franchise ownership, gets fined 2.5 MILLION dollars AND banned from the NBA for LIFE. ( well, for a few years, probably )
I'm glad he's getting hosed. Just wished they got him in a less devious manner. He's been a dirtbag for quite a while.

Look, JSF, I have perfect Freedom of Speech
as long as I'm home alone, talking to myself!
I hate Politically Correct!
hmmmm
But then, I don't like really rude people, either.
Censorship is more dangerous than rude.
... oooOO}{OOooo ...
I've given up looking for the meaning of life. Now all I want is a cookie.
