Dear Shelly

[RiversideClips]

Thank you so much in your concern for the Los Angeles Clippers; however I think it would be a bad idea if you didn't walk away.
I am not really concerned for the Players or Administration, but for the long suffering fans that your family has strung along for 25 plus years. As season tickets have increased approx. 40% over 4 years and this turmoil and continued selfishness is what you give your fans?
You had a nice run, take half of the Billion you will make off your 12 million dollar investment and leave Staples forever, no more talk about you & your son in law taking over the team that doesn't help heal your fans.
Shelly, track me down on this site because I have more things I would love to say to you face to face.

Cheers!

[Neddy]

lol

you are assuming Shelly have shame or decency.

no person that bare the last name Sterling have any decency, shame, pride, or even soul.

all they have is greed and arrogance. narcissism is a built in necessity to be a Sterling. they won't care what you or I think or feel. if that was the case, they would not have killed poor mrs. Jones.

as a clippers fan for 25 years or so, I say we boycott the team if Sterlings are still the owner of this team comes the next season opener. I hope the entire roster and coaches do the same, and every team that comes to play us in LA or we visit does the same, to give the Sterlings as little as possible in revenue sharing. I believe revenue sharing has a lot to do with splitting attendance here at home or away games, and buy no more clippers gears. if you must buy clipper gear, go to EBay. I won't buy the NBA pass, I won't go to even the blazers games when clippers come to town, and dry them up as long as they live and own.

I also would pray to whatever the deity you believe in ( I am an atheist) to give the worst painful and speedy death that is suitable for the Sterlings. If you feel guilty for wishing death to somebody, please remember, they have killed tenants due to non-functioning fire alarm and sprinkler system, evicting elderlies unfairly resulting in their stroke, or any other forms of death due to stress.

@ Neddy, I agree with you : I don't think she has decency or shame. I am just tired of this Sterling crap and by her trying to keep ownership , it shows me how money-grubbing the Sterlings are and how it effecting the team.
The Sterlings need to go, yesterday.

Yeah I agree, but that's the one only big concern I had when all this started. If it ever gets to that point we're f*cked. If it gets to a league wide boycott of players, coaches, fans, sponsors, etc. we're losing our team. Even if the boycott ends up being succesful and kickin them out in a year or two, we went from the title contender we have now that we've been all our life hoping for, to a destroyed team that even if it starts a rebuild it might take decades to get to the point we are now. I just want to see great basketball from my team deep in the post season. We of all people know how special and difficult to have that is.

Simple solution to rid of the Sterlings ownership.

Allow all the players to void their current contracts with the Clippers and the end of the playoffs.

Start a new Franchise that allows the current Clippers players to start a new contract the same
as they had with the Clippers.

Allow Doc to sign the same contract with the new franchise

While that would be very satisfying to potentially leave the Sterlings with nothing, I don't think it is feasible. I think that would set a worse precendence and not be supported by the other owners. Also I think you would run into all kinds of trademark issues, trying to create a new Clippers franchise while one technically exists.

One way that the greed of the Sterlings may help the NBA and Clippers is they may realize that a ridiculous legal fight could hurt the sale price of the team. I don't think it will stop them completely, but it may at the very least delay them.

[mj_shoefanatic]

Shelly is wrong for acting like she is not a racist or racist supporter. Just sell the team yabish and do us LAC fans a solid.

Yeah that's not happening, they're not being left with nothing. They'll fetch the most outrageously high selling price of a sports franchise ever (I'm actually saying this without fact checking it but it's gotta be, right?). And for all the people trying to defend their "rights", they're not facing any legal procedure, or justice, they're just being kicked out of their bussiness venture by their bussiness partners for being morons. And being compensated dearly for their troubles.

And I don't think there's any turning back from this, I love that Silver and the NBA are being relentlessly decisive with this, and I don't think there's a thing the Sterlings can do to avoid it. DTS seemed ready to give up in yesterday's interview, and Shelly is just a cartoonish character that no judge is gonna take seriously. I know Silver is probably doing this in a calculated way to start his mandate with a high approval rating, but I think even then we gotta thank him for it. He's doing what we hoped Stern did for decades.

[Don Tommy]

Not ever, there is no way they can beat the $2 billion the Dodgers got. But I guarantee they will be the second highest purchase ever. But what did Forbes value them at, $650 million or so? And after the DTS comments came out, Bill Simmons claimed they lost almost $200 million in value? No one can guess what a bored billionaire can really do with their money.

[QRich3]

Oh yeah, completely forgot about the Dodgers.

If they make it a sealed-bid auction god knows how much it sells for, it may even get close to the 2 billion. I hope it doesn't sell that high though, I don't want our next owner to be an impatient billionaire looking to get instant results for such an investment.
