I think there should be a requirement that he fight Manny Pacquiao before he is allowed to buy into Clippers franchise. Just thought I would throw that in there, even if it may be in the wrong forum.

He would certainly be better than the present owner, who has the viewpoint of a redneck in the South before the 1970s.

True, but I doubt he could afford to buy any more thane a share with other partners. Maybe promoting the fight would be a good motivation or incentive. I am getting tired of him running.

I don't know...Mayweather beat up his children's mother in front of them. That seems a lot worse to me than what some old cuckoo thinks.

I didn"t know about that. Sounds like Jake LaMotta. No wonder he is afraid of Manny

I'd rather see Chris Hansen/Steve Ballmer make a chance at getting this team; they had one chance last year, blew it, now the opportunity to bring back the Seattle Supersonics presents itself again.

I bet Seattle would love that, but doesn't the league have a say in that?

It looks like Oprah wants in. She can probably afford it. I can see her promotions; A free Kia to ten lucky fans drawn at random every Friday. Maybe Ellen can be a co-owner. She likes to give things away. They would pack the place for every game.
