Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling lashed out at Magic Johnson during a CNN interview broadcast Monday night, alluding to the NBA’s great’s HIV-positive diagnosis and saying, “I don’t think he’s a good example for the children of Los Angeles.”.

Sterling’s comments came as he addressed racial remarks he made that prompted the NBA to ban him for life. In a recording released by TMZ two weeks ago, Sterling tells a female friend, V. Stiviano, not to associate with black people, including Johnson.

"What kind of guy goes to every city, has sex with every girl, then catches” HIV, Sterling told Anderson Cooper. “I think he should be ashamed of himself.”

...

In the ABC interview, Shelly Sterling also suggested that Donald Sterling was suffering from dementia, which she said could explain the comments caught on tape.

1. I think he is both an asshole AND suffering from some sort of dementia or

alzheimer's or some sort of age-related cognitive issue.

7. I agree. But, the racism was ALWAYS there. He has a history.

I did listen to 10 minutes of him babbling on the tape. He did sound demented.

But, his history with the housing discrimination tells the story of someone who should not be allowed to own a basketball team.

10. Oh, sure--that's part and parcel of his assholishness, which is quite remarkable in its depth and

breadth!

Letterman just made a joke about "Donald Sterling's sprawling ranch....the Triple K...~!"

3. He sounded demented on the tape, imho

It would be easier to believe if he didn't have a history of such things. ..

9. Just wondering...

PS...he did sound pretty demented, though

6. Sterling suffers from stupidity, and assholeism

maybe a bit of dementia thrown in as well, but that doesn't excuse his racist comments. Sterling got what he deserved.
