Dallas Mavericks owner and businessman Mark Cuban has fired back at President Donald Trump’s criticism of NFL players who decline to stand during the national anthem, as well as the president’s decision to revoke a White House invitation to Golden State Warriors' star Stephen Curry.
“If the president's going to say something condemning a person, an industry, a sport, then he's got to be able to take the blowback that's going to come back,” Cuban told NBC News in an exclusive interview for “Meet the Press.”

There sure were an awful lot of filled seats today at every football game, even after all of the player disrespect during the national anthem that happened in previous weeks. It’s all about bread and circuses and the fall of the Roman Empire, people. We’re living in the last days of the good ol’ US of A.
“a used condom?” There is probably more grey matter in a used condom than in Cuban’s head. These idiots will do a lot of damage to a multi billion dollar sport. Cuban can afford a significant loss but it will piss him off nevertheless. The low IQ thugs with the multi million dollar contracts are going to have to tighten their belts. Question: How many more people will attend football games because of their position? I suspect that considerably fewer will attend.
This entire kneeling thing or not standing by CK was a protest over Mike Brown and in support of BLM. A group responsible for violence and murder of police. The media is nothing but a bunch of scared, rich racist white people who look at blacks as inferior dangerous dogs they have to constantly pat on the head, and also support and promote racial turmoil to keep blacks voting for leftists who will take care of their needs and take away the problems.
None of the anorexic white chicks in the media would ever really live in a majority black or minority area or send their kids to a school like that.
They’re sycophants.
Because most of those seats are season ticket holders and have been for years. People pay a lot for those tickets ahead of time.
It will cost the NFL over time though, unless they stop this.
I think we may have the numbers if we use some pressure.
“N”o “F”ootball “L”oosers at my house.
Right? POTUS makes a few comments and they lose their minds. Again, a spoiled generation of people who can’t and won’t be told no or understand people are allowed to have an opinion they don’t like without getting triggered.
All these people are missing the fact that this is not about Trump.
They didn’t see DJT coming did they?
They’re confused right ow over a lot of what is really going on out there in the country.
Trump can take it, but most of you cannot. And that includes you Cuban.
Hands up don’t shoot folklore.
Yeah, Cuban? I hope you’re prepared too.
By “should be able to take the blowback,” he means “should grovel and perhaps snivel a little.”
The sports world is going to take the blowback. This taking a knee BS has gone on long enough. Kids are now doing it. People had enough of this crap. We were fed up in November. Just wait and see how fed up we’ll be when DJTs reelection rolls around.
Because they have Trump deranged syndrome and live/work in a bubble with other sufferers, and can’t see this fact.
The perpetually outraged millennials on social media have no depth to their views or their politics. It’s just a litany of Trump hate along with emotional feel good cliches. All of their views stem from wrong information fed to them from the Bolsheviks running their school/college. Most have no real life experience, nor have they built or accomplished anything yet in order to give their tweets and FB comments any credibility.
Exactly. Don’t project your own cowardice onto Trump, Cuban.
“I’m Mark Cuban, a real obnoxious dumb a$$, and I voted for the dumb b!tch who lost the slam dunk election”!
The thinnest-skinned person I can ever remember is Obama...and, yet, no comment from Cuban on him.
What blowback? He is winning this issue.
