I agree with every you said but sterling is a registered republican.
Some of them sort of left a way back in by saying "until the NBA completes it's investigation".CarMax (KMX): "CarMax finds the statements attributed to the Clippers' owner completely unacceptable. These views directly conflict with CarMax's culture of respect for all individuals. While we have been a proud Clippers sponsor for 9 years and support the team, fans and community, these statements necessitate that CarMax end its sponsorship."
State Farm: "State Farm strongly supports and respects diversity and inclusion. The remarks attributed to the Clippers' owner are offensive. While those involved sort out the facts, we will be taking a pause in our relationship with the organization. We are monitoring the situation and we'll continually assess our options. We have a great relationship with Chris Paul and will continue supporting the Born to Assist advertising campaign involving Chris and now other NBA players."
Virgin America: "While we continue to support the fans and the players, Virgin America has made the decision to end its sponsorship of the L.A. Clippers."
Red Bull: "We trust and respect the NBA's process to formally investigate the matter, and in the interim, are suspending all team-related marketing activities. We will continue to support our Red Bull athlete, Blake Griffin, his teammates and coaching staff in their pursuit of an NBA title."
Kia Motors (000270:KS): "The comments allegedly made by Clippers owner, Donald Sterling, are offensive and reprehensible, and they are inconsistent with our views and values. We are suspending our advertising and sponsorship activations with the Clippers. Meanwhile, as fans of the game of basketball, our support of the players and the sport is unwavering."
Aquahydrate (via Twitter, confirmed on the phone): "In the wake of Sterling's alleged intolerable comments we are suspending our Clippers sponsorship until the NBA completes its investigation."
Amtrak: "Amtrak believes the language used is unacceptable and is inconsistent with our corporate belief to treat everyone with integrity and dignity. Our sponsorship with the LA Clippers expired at the end of the regular season a few weeks ago. As with any sponsorship advertising, some assets remain in market-to that end we are diligently working to remove all sponsorship assets. Moving forward, we will continue to monitor the situation as we look to make decisions about 2014-15 sports marketing sponsorships."
Chumash Casino Resort: "We've always been proud supporters of the Los Angeles Clippers, however, the recent statements attributed to the Clippers' owner have forced us to reconsider our relationship. We remain supportive of the members of the team and we wish them the very best going forward. As a group that has long been marginalized itself, the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians and the Chumash Casino Resort are especially sensitive to maintaining the dignity of all people. We cannot ignore any statement that causes harm or hurts any group. As a result, we're withdrawing our sponsorship of the Clippers organization."
Lumber Liquidators: "In light of the racist comments allegedly made by the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, Lumber Liquidators is suspending all planned advertising for the team's 2014-2015 season until further notice."
Yokohama Tire Corporation: "Yokohama Tire Corporation does not tolerate discrimination in any fashion. The alleged remarks by Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling are completely unacceptable and we find it necessary to immediately suspend our sponsorship of the organization as a result. We will continue to assess the situation and weigh our options. Meanwhile, we wish to express our continued support to the Clippers players and fans."
Corona/Constellation Brands: "Like everyone else, Corona is appalled by the comments allegedly made by the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. These comments run counter to the type of brand Corona aspires to be. Because of this, we are suspending our sponsorship agreement with the Clippers until the NBA completes its investigation."
NBA sponsor Anheuser-Busch (BUD) had this to say: "As the Official Beer of the NBA, we are disappointed to hear the alleged recent comments attributed to L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling. While Anheuser-Busch and Bud Light are not team sponsors of the LA Clippers, we fully support the NBA's efforts to investigate quickly and trust that they will take appropriate action."
Got Damn clips are finished
They should just end it all together. It's a start I guess...
nikka you over there praising dirk for bein in an interracial relationship, but u bash doc rivers for bein in one
And she's the same type of woman to shyt on the brothas.
That's yall preacher
In all seriousness, that's the *first* thing cross my mind when I read that shyt... Which is why I had to give Walt a lil shout out... A lot of people miss details like that you know
.... #ThisnikkaWillStoopToANYTHING
Are people really saying the coach and players should have walked out on the team? This won't end well for Sterling. The Clippers organization will continue to exist with or without him. They didn't sign to that team to show some type of loyalty to some rich billionaire.
Personally I think Sterling should have the decency to sell his stake in the team and get out. He's become a cancer to that organization and his continued presence around it only further damages it. As for the NBA taking direct action on him that's sort of grey area. He many have fukked up views but he didn't publicly express them himself. Somebody recorded a private conversation where they were clearly baiting him into saying that stuff for the specific purpose of putting it out to the media.
are the things we say in privacy or supposed privacy fair game like that?
