Donald Sterling really needs to just keep his mouth shut, deliver his team to the NBA and get somewhere and sit down at this point.
Being taped, yet once again, Donald Sterling is trying to explain away why he made the remarks that were perceived as racist by millions of people. Noting that he was jealous of the fact that his girlfriend was out with Majic Johnson and because she was black he was jealous that she was seen photographed and with a black man. Now you tell me, what sense does that make, chile Pleeze!
I guess to wart off this latest leaked tape, Donald Sterling, after two weeks decides its time to be apologize so he taped an interview with Anderson Cooper to try to explain to the world that he made one mistake. He was wrong but it was just a mistake.
I’m a good member who made a mistake and I’m apologizing and I’m asking for forgiveness,” …“Am I entitled to one mistake, am I after 35 years? I mean, I love my league, I love my partners. Am I entitled to one mistake? It’s a terrible mistake, and I’ll never do it again.”
Sterling, an 80-year-old married lawyer and billionaire real-estate investor, hasn’t spoken publicly about the accusations since celebrity gossip website TMZ posted a 10-minute audio recording of him that drew widespread condemnation from fans, players and the league.
“I’m not a racist,” Sterling told Cooper. “I made a terrible mistake. I’m here to apologize.”
Asked by Cooper why he took so long to say he’s sorry, Sterling said he was “emotionally distraught.”
“The reason it’s hard for me, very hard for me, is that I’m wrong. I caused the problem. I don’t know how to correct it,” he said.
Sterling told CNN that his fate is in the NBA’s hands.
“If the owners feel I have another chance, then they’ll give it to me,” he said.
Really, Donald Sterling, Really!
