That's a damn good question.

My guess is that as a owner he signed a contract with a clause stating he is obligated to pay any fines levied by the NBA.
If he doesn't pay, they'll sue him for breach of contract.

That must be the explanation.
Then there's the other question. He's been banned from even attending any NFL games. How could they lawfully ban anyone from attending a game?
Obviously he will no longer be seen at a game. But if he did want to be a spectator could they lawfully prevent him from doing so?

I don't recall Pete Rose being banned from even attending any MLB games.
And I never heard about Marge Schott being banned from being a spectator either.

Bob wrote:Look, let's at least be real about this. The reason Sterling is getting the maximum punishment is because the NBA is dominated by black athletes.
In this case blacks are "da man" and Sterling is the "boy".
But if I put myself in the place of those blacks athletes, I would have the same take on it they do. How can you have a white team owner in a black sport be known to make racist comments.
What if the roles were reversed. Let's say a black man owned a Nascar team.
And his girlfriend taped him saying to her "It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you're associating with white people. Do you have to?"
"You can sleep with them. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want. The little I ask is that you not bring white people to my racetracks" "I'm just saying, in your lousy fucking Instagrams, you don't have to have yourself with, walking with white people."
"Don't put him [Dale Earnhardt] on an Instagram for the world to have to see. And don't bring him to my racetracks."
Mr Ichi wrote:Maybe now all Fans will have to take a "Racist" test before they can attend a sporting event. They could contract the test to the TSA. It would be both written, verbal and Physical. I mean if the damn owner of the team can not go to his own event because he is a "Racist", Why should any other potential or actual Racist be allowed to attend?
