We know who the trouble-makers are. We can see through the trash to find the truth. It is incredible how I can watch the same video or live game/news conference these "Jagoffs" are reporting on and see something completely different. (Some folks in the Dallas metroplex actually know what Jagoff means, and it fits some of the local press so well) Stay true, Mark Cuban. The fans love you.

The media will always be and has always been obsessed with people who have money and power because they generally have neither, look at it as envy from their perspective, they think they are smarter and should be where you are instead of you being there. The Finals just added another level of attention to that and the media hyped it up for all it was worth, including these idiots in the local press, most of whom are incapable of coherent thought on any subject. You were never the story, the Mavs were and are the story. Just look at it this way, some good playoff Karma is going to be on your side next year, the Mavs have earned it, and I have no doubt you will be there again in the Finals and beating Miami or Detroit next year. The story now is the draft, time to move on.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading it. One thing I wld like to mention is that folks who get on this blog, write hated comments....just like they vent their hatred towards u on this blog (happens to be the only channel for these idiotic non-MAVS fans btw), this is ur blog where u express ur thoughts/opinions as any other fan would do. Nothing wrong with that, but NBA does'nt see it that way, neither do these non-MAVS fans....coz its no secret....Mark, did u know that u also happen to be the owner of the Mavericks!! These ppl just dont realise that come game time....u r just like any other Mav fan or for that matter fan of any professional sports team, who happens to yell at officials, officiating and boo the other team players....nothing wrong with that....but well it so happens that u Mark, own the Mavericks!! U write on this blog not as a owner, just like anyone who blogs giving opinions and NBA happens to fine u for ur comments as a fan. If it were to be the same comments made by me....would they fine me too....well the problem is u happen to be the owner of Mavericks who has tons of money!! I dont see why ppl hate u so much....in a way I think its a blessing in disguise that u match every dollar of the fine for charity which is the best part of all this....and u still happen to be owner of the Mavericks and of course u dont crave the limelight for the charity work!! Keep up the good work Mark. People forget the bigger picture and tend to make it a personal issue out of it. I see u as a fan first and then as a owner, but glad to have u as the owner of the Mavericks!! Nice one Mark. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Mark, you are THE OWNER of a multi-million dollar organization. Why do people expect you to sit quietly when you see wrongs done to your organization? Do they expect other owners of huge corporations to sit back while while people pick apart what they have built? I think not. As for people 'sucking up' I just don't see that. Sure you have a following...just like many others in your position do. As for the hateful remarks, it amazes me that people can be hateful on here, but given the opportunity, they would freeze like ice if they were to meet you face to face. You just keep being you....you have brought the Mavericks to new highs. Keep up the good work!!! Your comments: I agree with Sujit. Mark, you are THE OWNER of a multi-million dollar organization.

And when somebody gives one, everybody jumps on that person for being politically incorrect. But if a player/owner doesn't talk, they are brooding. Believe me. Donald Sterling never does interviews out here and he is ripped for it. You can't win either way. The thing I hate, the media is always looking for a colorful quote.

In fact, I'm not offended by that word at all. A word or words can not be used to "opress a segment of the population" as someone in an earlier post charged. Words only have the power we assign them, no more, no less. Well said, Mr. Cuban! You're 100% right about a generally LAZY press corps. Keep making yourself the story. It's better than about 90% of the other trash they put on the air! As a ‘fag’ I was not offended by Ozzie’s use of the word. In fact, I’m not offended by that word at all.

If the media is starting all of this saying people like you and Ozzie Guillen are attention hogs...you only are because the media surrounds you with a camera basically up ass everyday! Mr. Cuban,

(BTW, if you see the Royals for sale in a year or two...by all means, put in a bid!)
