Donald Sterling


As we all know, Donald Sterling is the owner of the basketball team known as the Clippers. Some may know him as the man who made the racial comments. These racial comments may cause Donald Sterling to be banned from being the owner of the Clippers. The funny part  about this is that he was caught on tape saying these racial comments and wasn't man or bold enough to just come out and say how he felt.

Reporters say that as punishment, Sterling is now being forced to tell the team the racist comments he made. Reporters also say that they believe that Donald Sterling is not a racist, it was just something said in the moment. He says, "I feel alone with this whole thing". Others are pushing Donald Sterling to just apologize for what he said and move on with life. I strongly agree with this. Although, making racial comments isn't cool or good, but he should at least explain himself and apologize for what he has done. 

Donald Sterling should have never said anything racial out his mouth but who are we to judge. Yes, he was wrong. He has a full team of NBA players who look up to him and he leads. That's not a good look on Sterling's behalf. With the power and authority Sterling has, why would he put that in danger? We don't know. All we can do is hope that Sterling can come out and apologize for what he has said. Our society needs to be done with this whole racism thing!!!
