But since he hasnt come out and said it wasnt him then we pretty much have to believe it is.
I've never believed it wasn't him. The way the conversation was orchestrated, however, the whole thing was obviously contrived and Sterling baited into saying certain things in a light that intended to sound overtly racist. It sounds like a highlight tape. I wouldn't be surprised if it was in fact edited and spliced together so that we only hear the "juicy" parts.
As I said before, this **** was obviously using Magic Johnson's dick as a bargaining chip and the best way to do that was to parade him around in Donald Sterling's own house, at Clipper games. He was obviously pissed off and lost his cool on that phone call. It doesn't totally excuse his off-the-mark comments, but I'd love to hear the rest of that audio tape.
