I am Anderson Cooper, welcome to 360podcast, the LA clippers may soon have a new owner and a young man survivedFriday’s killing 1 ramp 2 at S. Let’s get started
The former Microsoft CEO Steve Balmer isclose to buy LS’s clippers for reported winning bid 2 billion dollars. That’saccording to the source of acknowledgements negotiation 3. It’s a story that couldturn this story on this head, now a short time ago, DS’s attorney MB made thecase on CNN that his client is the man who has been wrong, the victim of aquote called the Kangaroo court now is considering suing the leak, which reallyseems strange depending on your perspective is when you listen to this Mr Bsounds like his client is digging in for long fight, not a quick sale like thedeal with Balmer.
The leak on Tuesday has a ? over MrSterling’s head, on Tuesday, they will [url=]confiscate[/url]team under the term of and by constitution and bilaws. They will do thatillegally, if they don’t want a lawsuit 5 challenging that K, they need to let usknow before Tuesday. The leak is said in writing to me and that tape ofrecording is the sole basis of the claim against Mr Sterling 4, so the sole basisof the claim is illegally pay recording 6 which under California law can’t beoffered as an evidence. So they have no case is suffering the responsibilitythat he made a mistake, it’s not consenting to the league confiscating 7 hisproperty which now can see worth more than 1 billion dollars. He is notconsenting to pay a 2.5 million dollars fine or be banished 8 from the stadiumfor the rest of his life. This is ? Exceeding anything that anybody has everdone than any questional sports. What’s the basis of it? And a legal recordinghe is not a racist 9, he had 5 black head coaches, he had 22 year associationwith A as his director of operations. 22 years with that man, he is given Usome money to black charity including United Negro? fun. He’s given tickets tothe inner city people so that kids can see his games. There isn’t any record inthe entire 32 years his honesty of racist enter into the ? and the operation ofthe team.
That interview is just about two hours ago,now we have news of this potential 2 billion dollar sale. To make things evermore bizarre is that stand we just heard from Mr B is the only exact oppositetone client D took when I spoke 10 to him just over two weeks ago.
People need to hire a wall of lawyers andthen hire a wall of lawyers to go to war. I don’t think that’s the answer, theleague is a good league, all honest people and I think whatever they decide hasto be done, I think I should work with them. And I have my league, I love my partnerand one mistake, it’s a terrible mistake, and I will never do it again, and isit harsh, of course, it’s harsh. But it’s not like that I don’t deserve, I thoughtthey were gonna do more. That was clearly them. So now either Mr Sterling isgoing for battle or close to selling the team to Steve Balmer for about 2billion dollars, either way, on Tuesday, the league’s 30 owners plan to vote onwhether the Sterling and his strange wife Shelly are their owner ?.
A lot going on. Steve cohost to be SBN. Let’sstart about what do you think of this Steve this report for reportedly 2billion dollars or so? Obvious, that’s a lot of money, there is no questionsabout that, you sure anticipate for Sterling family or clippers would be ableto be sold for that amount of money. But I can sure indeed that’s the that’s going to give NBA and his boardgovernors even more incentive 11 to make sure the sale takes place and DS is outbecause they definitely like that kind of price sale.
