Sayonara Sterling! Clippers Sold To Former Microsoft Exec For $2 Billion

That old racist and his wife are out of here! LA Clippers Sell For $2 Billion Looks like V. Stiviano’s setup worked like a charm. After turning over his ownership of the Clippers to his equally bigoted wife , the team has finally been sold to a new owner. So, who’s the wealthy man with enough bank to drop 2 BILLION dollars for an NBA franchise? According to NYDailyNews : That’s $2 billion with an uppercase B! Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has apparently won the bidding war Thursday for the Los Angeles Clippers with a staggering $2 billion offer for the NBA franchise, according to the L.A. Times. The frenzied battle to get the team from Sterling drove the franchise’s price sky high for a team that Forbes estimated was worth at $575 million back in January. The franchise has been in turmoil since owner Donald Sterling was recorded on tape by an associate making racist comments about Magic Johnson, among others. In short order, NBA commissioner Adam Silver slammed Sterling with an unprecedented lifetime ban for his remarks, imposed a $2.5 million fine, and began the process to force a sale of the Clippers. Sterling’s wife, Shelly, who owns 50 percent of the team had been reviewing five bids for the franchise. The Daily News reported on Friday that Sterling had decided to part with the team he bought for $12.5 million in 1981. According to the L.A. Times, the 58-year-old Ballmer, who is reportedly worth around $20 billion, apparently edged out groups led by Los Angeles-based investors Tony Ressler and Steve Karsh, as well as a group that included music mogul David Geffen and the Guggenheim Group, the owners of the Los Angeles Dodgers. As, the saying goes, “ loose lips sink ships !” His side chick appetite coupled with a racist attitude brought on his downfall. Looks like Old Man Sterling will just have to go have sit his racist azz down somewhere.

Devon Walker: New Orleans Saints Sign Paralyzed Former College Football Star

Devon Walker believed he was headed to a post-graduation celebration dinner with his family on on Saturday night. Instead, the former Tulane football stand-out received the surprise of a lifetime. Instead of his favorite restaurant, Walker’s family took him to the New Orleans Saints rookie minicamp where Saints coach Sean Payton offered him a contract with the team. Of course, hundreds of former college stars will sign with NFL teams in the coming months. What makes Walker’s situation unique is that he was paralyzed from the neck down in a devastating injury he suffered during a 2012 game. “When Devon got hurt, his football career was just starting to take off after three years of hard work,” said Payton in a press conference, with Walker by his side. “Despite the devastating injury he suffered, Devon refuses to let that define him. He is an outstanding young man who is an inspiration not only to his coaches and teammates at Tulane, but to all of us.” “For me this is one of my dreams come true,” Walker told the press. “I’ve been a Saint since before I was walking. Just to be a part of the team and be around the players is more than I could have hoped for.” The 23-year-old Walker participated in Tulane’s graduation ceremony just hours before the Saints offered him a contract. He has been frequently commended for his courage following the tragic end of his playing career and he has received outpourings of affection from the New Orleans community in the past.  Along with Michael Sam who was drafted by the St. Louis Rams  as the first openly gay man selected by an NFL team, Walker is part of an historic offseason of firsts for the NFL. 18 Revolting, Homophobic Tweets About Michael Sam Michael Sam father has failed.

Not So Fast: Are Cops Covering Up FSU Quarterback Jameis Winston Sexual Assault Allegations?

First the victim couldn’t identify him and now this. Cops Possibly Covering Up Jameis Winston Sexual Assault Allegations This is smelling a little fishy. How can an allegation that can ruin a man’s career get this far without the witness being able to identify him? We hope this police cover up isn’t true. According to TMZ: There’s evidence Tallahassee cops tried to sweep the sexual assault investigation targeting Florida State University QB Jameis Winston under the rug to protect the team and its star player … and ONLY took aggressive steps after TMZ Sports started asking questions. Sources in the State Attorney’s Office tell us they never even knew about the investigation until Tuesday … JUST ONE DAY AFTER TMZ Sports began making calls to cops about the alleged assault. Our sources in the State Attorney’s Office say … it was highly unusual cops wouldn’t have filled them in about the case until this week. The sources say cops would have typically notified them when the investigation was completed, and Winston’s lawyer reportedly says cops told him it was completed in February. Now get this … TMZ Sports started calling police about the case on Monday. We were told someone would get back to us later that day, but there was radio silence for 2 days … we made repeated calls Tuesday and Wednesday and no one got back to us until late Wednesday afternoon. Sources in the State Attorney’s Office tell us … the timing — getting notified about the case months after it supposedly was closed and just a day after TMZ started calling — is suspicious. The State Attorney has now re-activated the case and sent it back to cops for further investigation. And there’s a twist — guess what would happen if Winston was even CHARGED with felony sexual assault — under FSU’s rules … he would be AUTOMATICALLY BENCHED … killing the team’s national championship hopes and his Heisman Trophy chances. People start acting shading when championships are on the line.
