the new face of Dallas

Marc Cuban is one of my favorite people in the sporting world. he's constantly taking on the league, the officials and the press and most of the time i feel like he's right. plus any billionaire with that haircut is somehow endearing. big thanks to Marc for tipping me off to the fact that he actually has his own blog going now. we'll see how often he updates it, but so far he doesn't seem to be lacking for word count.

you may rememeber him getting behind the counter at Dairy Queen to make up for running his mouth about bad officiating:

I'm with you, Jamie. Cuban's from Pittsburgh, which I think explains a great deal. He's a good example of a big fan beign a good owner because he doesn't take himself too seriously, unlike say, Peter Angelos or Jerry Jones. He had the foresight to hire Nellie, who was a total joke after bombing out with the Knicks. And he helped turn around a joke of a franchise basically overnight.

Plus his haircut is in the Tom Tuttle Top Ten (that oughta piss off Larry). Dude, you're super rich, you own a basketball team and your wife is smoking. It's okay that you're thinning on top! Same goes to you, Trump. No more combovers among the billionaire set.

Your headline got me all excited about the possibility of a new version of Dallas. Where art thou J.R. Ewing? Save us from the O.C.
