Clippers Front Office Get Rid Of Clipper Darrell

[SpecialQue]

I would still have fvcking KILLED for Darrell's gig. Free tickets, meeting the team, making some extra cash on the side. Sweet gig. Ridiculous that he let his greed fvck it up.

Thanks. I'm hoping it makes up for my "Clipper Darrell makes $500,000 per year" post earlier.

I actually feel like I'm owed an apology from quite a few who posted here. I saw this for exactly what it was.

Game recognize Game and Clipper Darrell got his Clipper Dros in a bunch because he became a Clipper Paper Chaser

Actually this may turn out to be a blessing for the organization. This is why you don't consult players on such matters

So had he kept his mouth shut and man up to what he agreed to.... this wouldn't have been bad publicity as it turned out to be.

Joey Buss text'd the Mason and Ireland show today and offered him a job as "Defender Darrell"

He was joking

Here is your apology:

Refute it.

Clearly there are many many many lies....but its hard to say who told them.


[QUOTE]The man called Clipper Darrell says the worst thing the Los Angeles Clippers ever said about him – their de facto fan mascot – was the following:

“He is not actually a fan of the Clippers, but a fan of what he can make off the Clippers.”

That came in an official team statement this week, and, yes, that one stung.



Clipper Darrell Bailey says the Clippers want him to stop using their name when making promotional appearances.
(NBAE/Getty Images)

“This is hurtful man,” said Darrell Bailey, aka Clipper Darrell. “They said I was never a fan.”

The Clippers told Yahoo! Sports they actually “never questioned Mr. Bailey’s role as a fan at games. This matter concerns Mr. Bailey’s activities outside of Staples Center games.”

Well, the statement is pretty clear, and whether you’re on the side of the Clips’

this shit is entirely bogus. As usual, the media talks out of their ass without bothering to do any actual fact checking. I was in SLC the other day, and their radio guys spent most of their show talking about this without having a clue.


Look, the dude is selling merch and making money off of their name and acting like an authorized rep. The clipps were nice in telling him to cut it out, rather than suing his dumb ass.

F*ck Donald Sterling

Clipper Darrell is sad. Jesus, what a drama queen.

[millwad]

Haha, so we have this grown man crying like a baby because he's not allowed to call himself "Clipper Darrell"?

Sure, stupid move by the Clippers but seriously, how did this become such a big deal?

I swear, it's like you read half of the sentence and stopped to post.

In answer to your question...NO.

This is pretty damn sad actually. He's staying a fan but he seems neutered... and should feel that way. I guess he was told to stop wearing his suit too . I understand the FO doing it... but the timing was bad. Not to mention they could just say "You can't show up at events anymore and use the name". To say he can't wear his suit?
