Sports so much talk

so I'm a little down after I couldn't find an embeddable copy of the video of Mark Cuban seemingly fighting an official at a Mavs game (it was an April Fools joke that has to be the number one April Fools joke of all sports time)

but the Cows did release two expensive old dudes (which I'm told was a good move) and the Eagles traded away their "Brett Favre" so I can't be too upset. well, the 'Skins did just get the best QB they've had in ever. so the NFL season is light years away and baseball just started, I kinda understand why Ron did cocaine...

Mark Cuban's about to have a real crisis on his hands

just noticed that the Mavs are playing the Raptors at 11:30 a.m. this Sunday, the same day (and close to same time) that the Cowboys play the Vikings at 12:00 p.m. so.... is Goodell messin' with Cuban? not really cuz the Mavs are on the road and I'm betting that Cubes doesn't care about the Raptors ticket sales. what say you?

p.s. welcome back, Senor Eduardo Najera.

Mavs Linkage

Everyone seems to be on Swine Flu Holiday today, so I'll carry the Mammals torch with some Mavs links worth sharing.

First is this article where Jason Terry clarifies his comments about J-Kidd's departure from the team. Like I said, he's about the last person I'd look to for front office news. The article pretty much states the same.

Interesting points here from Sefko about the Mavs having the deeper bench than the Nuggets. I'm not sure I exactly agree with him. I've always thought the 2009 Nuggets were pretty deep. Sure, the Mavs probably are the deeper team, but is it going to be enough to make a difference? J.R. Smith is like a streakier Jason Terry and Birdman is like their more-reliable Ryan Hollins, providing dunks, putbacks, and blocks with pizazz. (Speaking of, I'd love to see a Hollins-Birdman one-on-one matchup.) Kleiza should see more minutes too. They've definitely got more muscle and size than most NBA teams, and for this reason most people are saying JJ Barea won't be too much of an asset in this series, which thins out the bench if Hollins or Singleton don't step up. I realize that if bigs clog the lane, that's going to prevent JJ from doing what he does best. But he's the quickest person on either team; can't we use this to our advantage?

Lastly, this is a pretty great blog entry on fannation about why Mark Cuban is the best owner in sports. I get annoyed with people who say he's crass and annoying and interferes with the game. That's because he's not YOUR sports team's owner. I guarantee if he bought your favorite sports team, you'd come around pretty quickly. Always available, great working mind, always trying to improve the product, treats his fans well (ticket price drops AFTER the Finals run?!), and treats his employees even better. Just don't hold him accountable for Dancing with the Stars or the Benefactor. (My favorite part about the wikipedia entry for the Benefactor? It discusses the first two episodes in great detail and then just stops there. Probably because nobody watched the remaining 4.)

Enjoy the game on Sunday and see you at Victory Plaza for the watching party!

Cubes does his best Hollinger impersonation

with this All-Star ranking, what do you think? is this just e-Mark tryin' to raise Kidd's value?
