Donald Sterling is BANNED FOR LIFE?!
Don Sterling, the owner of the NBA Los Angeles Clippers, has been banned for life from the team. He will also be fined $2.5 million! I, for one, think this was the right punishment, after he said some terrible, racist things about his own team, considering that 3/4 of the team are dark brown! However, just because he is banned from his team, does NOT mean he does not still own them. A lot of people agree that Don Sterling completely deserves what happened to him (and think there should be a bigger consequence), one of those people being Adam Silver, who says that he is doing everything in his power to punish Sterling in any way that is legally possible. I agree with him and think that everyone who is working to fix this situation are being firm and calm about this situation, as you should when trying to provoke change. I definitely think that Don Sterling should be punished. Do you? What do you think is the right way to handle this problem?
