He probably saw how the last owner who actually made racist comments made serious bank on the sale of his team, so he dug up an old email, called himself racist, and is hoping for a payday.

I was thinking along the same lines. Besides, we have everyone from Obama on down saying blacks are poor, so if that's the truth, then whites would be the target for selling expensive tickets. And if the cheerleaders are all black then where is the diversity in that? And I find hip hop music offensive and would appreciate not having to hear that garbage if I'm spending a small fortune on season tickets.
The people on the left constantly say "how do attract blacks for this" or "how do we attract blacks for that" and now that this guy asking the same question but about a different race the rules suddenly change.

The Hawks actually had fans? Ladies and Gentlemen, here are your new Seattle Supersonics; Memphis will take their place in the Southeast.

You and I think alike because when I watched the news that's the first thing that came to mind.

RE: Atlanta Hawks owner to sell team because of "racist" email
I stopped caring about professional sports a long time ago, but seeing this "news" (yeah right) story just reminded me of how completely and totally I have stopped caring. I had never, ever heard of Bruce Levenson's name until today, and I would not have had any concept of who he was, even if someone had mentioned his name to me. You could have told me he was a Hawks' coach or player or announcer and I would have believed it no less than if you told me he was the Hawks' owner.
The NBA is just a complete nothing as far as I'm concerned.

If that was his agenda, couldn't Levenson have simply put the Hawks up for sale without the "racist email"-stuff?

The nba is as good as it's ever been since Jordan played. Last year I even bought the league pass. I've never done that before.

His comments weren't racist at all. They were 100 percent accurate.
