Duh!!

Donald Sterling, the disgraced owner of the Los Angeles Clippers who has been banned for life by the NBA for racial remarks, spoke Friday for the first time since the scandal broke.

"I wish I had just paid her off," Sterling told DuJour.com, referring to ex-girlfriend V. Stiviano, the woman behind the audio tape published by TMZ on which Sterling made disparaging racial remarks.

Stiviano was the woman Sterling was talking to on the recording.



According to the person who conducted the interview, Sterling "expressed remorse."

Sterling had kept a low profile since NBA commissioner Adam Silver banned him for life and fined him $2.5 million on Tuesday. Silver has urged the league's owners to force a sale of the Clippers.

Sources have confirmed to ESPN.com that Sterling also is battling cancer.

The news was first reported late Thursday night by the New York Post. The Post, citing sources, reported that the 80-year-old Sterling has been battling prostate cancer for an extended period of time.

Since Sterling's ban was announced, there have been no shortage of suitors who have expressed an interest in potentially purchasing the Clippers.

Oprah Winfrey, David Geffen and Larry Ellison will join together in a bid to buy the Clippers if the NBA's board of governors votes to force Sterling to sell the team, Geffen told ESPN's Jeremy Schaap on Wednesday.

Geffen said he and Ellison would run the team, while Winfrey would be an investor.

Boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr. and music mogul Sean Combs both claimed interest in buying the team Tuesday, as did real-estate tycoon Rick Caruso.

Magic Johnson, Mark Walter and their Guggenheim Partners group, which made the billion-dollar purchase of the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2012, also are possible bidders, though sources have told ESPN that any such discussions were premature at best.

Johnson, who was specifically mentioned in the recorded conversation involving Sterling, laughed off the suggestion he should buy the Clippers in an appearance on ESPN on Sunday night, saying he was focused on bringing the NFL back to Los Angeles.

I wonder how much TMZ paid that bitch for the audio clips

[Big Bear]

that bitch should go to jail for 10 years.

[InTheDrink]

that bitch should go to jail for 10 years.

Can you stop posting for 10 years?

[jjgold]

She must be broke or doing drugs

Just money hungry trash

[konck]

She is just a ho that upgraded from 20 dolla Joe to 1 mill Buddy
Its not like she really liked his 80 yr old wrinkled cok lol
She was looking for pay day and found one better than suking old pole
now she can go blow the money on young white cok

[stealthyburrito]

even if he paid her off in exchange for destruction of the recordings and keeping silent I still wouldn't trust such an agreement.

She prolly has copies of his remarks backed up/stored elsewhere/duplicated in case the originals were somehow destroyed.

Then she can get paid on two ends, from sterling and to whomever she leaked it to.

[teaserpleaser]

well if he wasn't such a tight jew bastard he would have threw her 5 mil or whatever she wanted that's peanuts to that guy but from all reports he lives up to EVERY penny pinching jewish stereotype there is.

[RubberKettle]

....and I am sure their relationship was purely platonic

Sterling got a lifetime achievement award from the NAACP in 2009

[teaserpleaser]

no telling how much he "donated" for that award enough that they were going to give it to him again though.

Donated for for that oyster too

[homie1975]

if the dujour magazine story is true, that he said "i should have paid her off" in the interview, then he is 100% missing the point,

instead of saying "i regret what i said, it was wrong, i need help",

he says he wishes he paid her off,

he clearly is not sorry for what he said, he is sorry he got caught,

the guy is an absolute fukkstick

[homie1975]

Proof positive that Sterling HAD TO GO

if the dujour magazine story is true, that he said "i should have paid her off" in the interview, then he is 100% missing the point,

instead of saying "i regret what i said, it was wrong, i need help",

he clearly is not sorry for what he said, he is sorry he got caught,

the guy is an absolute fukkstick

[KRIT]

At least he was being honest. If he did one of those phony apologies, everyone would know it was a PR move.

[dfish]

Are you out of your mind ?
'I need help' ?

funny how that works because I thought the exact same thing about you and every other single anti-american out there.

[LordVodka]

He's 80. How much longer does he have? He shouldn't be apologizing to anyone at this point in his life. He should have paid off that dumb bitch.

[homie1975]

more american and more patriotic than you. i served in the 1st gulf war. have some respect.

i just know how to think for myself as opposed to you who thinks what mommy and daddy believed in is the only way to think.

you must be a redneck

[InTheDrink]

It's a proven fact that the term "anti-American" had never been used by a non-redneck ever

[dfish]

thank you for your service
however,just another rich old man taken for a ride
state run media eats it up
bob kraft is next
peace

[homie1975]

and by the way you uneducated little prick, it's "exactly the same" not "the exact same".

learn how to write you piece o' crap

[homie1975]

it's always the gun-toting assholes who never served a day in the military who run their mouths,

if we ever meet in person, i guarantee you will not speak to me like that

[teaserpleaser]

was it that obvious

[TheCentaur]

and by the way you uneducated little prick, it's "exactly the same" not "the exact same".

learn how to write you piece o' crap

Hmmmm are you sure?

You could be right, but "exactly" would describe how he thought, while "exact same" would describe what he thought.

Kind of like talk loudly and talk shit

[itchypickle]

no telling how much he "donated" for that award enough that they were going to give it to him again though.

Leon Jenkins, the NAACP chapter pres in LA just resigned over it....best part of the story is that brotha is a former judge from Michigan that got disbarred and removed from the bench because of taking bribes.....fits right in withe the NAACP and shakedown specialists

[itchypickle]

I give her 18 months and she'll 'have an accident' and be found dead of an overdose. That or she'll get a porn deal.

[teaserpleaser]

if her face wasn't mush she'd probably already have a reality show ....everybody raving about how pretty she is I must be seeing bad pics but the body is banging. I knew the NAACP was taking money how else can they give a known racist that award then they just said screw it lets give it to him again 2 lifetimes lol.

[GUMMO77]

She is just a ho that upgraded from 20 dolla Joe to 1 mill Buddy
Its not like she really liked his 80 yr old wrinkled cok lol
She was looking for pay day and found one better than suking old pole
now she can go blow the money on young white cok

[mw00]

Im fukken sick of people having to apologize for things they are not sorry for. I give him credit for not being a pussy about it. He said what he said and he meant it.

[Bluehorseshoe]

She's still talking with him which is unreal considering the lawsuit and audio tapes being released.
