Enough Already with Cuban and Martin
The Mark Cuban- Kenyon Martin saga needs to end. Make no mistake. This is
without a doubt the most ridiculous feud in the history
lI stropS
of sports. Something deep
inside me tells me that Cuban should be above the fray in all of this. After all he is
an owner who pays the players. He running the asylum, yet he in the middle of a war
of words with a player and the player’s mother. And that player for those do not know
is Kenyon Martin. He’s certainly not the most congenial guy on the face of the earth.
Yet Cuban chose to lower his standing and sta

tus by participating in this he said she
said verbal sparring match.
Yet the fireworks continue and much of the hoopla will son die down given that
Cuban's Dallas Maverick team was eliminated from the playoff by Denver. Kenyon
Martin has very few people willing to be president of his fan club and neither does
Mark Cuban; both need to chill out and take a break from the verbal nonsense. It
would be good for basketball I would think and good for both men.
