Somebody has to go the other way.

Yup. My post was sort of tongue and cheek.

I wonder if the threat of a player/coach boycott next year would force the issue.

Well, he has a long and rich history of racism to provide context to that conversation. It's not an isolated incident.

Why say this?

Complete bs. He was racist so fine him. You can't force an owner out like that, interfering in the private sector does not set a good precedent. Not saying he wasn't wrong but this is way to severe.

Donald Sterling's punishment was...
