    it amazes me to see how little self-control these sexual harassers/sexual predators have...it also amazes me to see just how bold some of them are

    because they’re in a position of power, they feel that they’re untouchable...well that’s starting to change, those days are done

    I hate the Mavericks franchise & fans more than Cowboys / Rangers. Soooo I’m enjoying more reports of destruction. :)

    Cuban needs to clam up ASAP and only talk through his lawyers at this stage, before he does more damage to himself.

    In this current climate, this has the potential to be much worse for Cuban. Silver probably won't be as drastic as he was with Sterling, but it'll be something big nonetheless.

    Whatever the outcome, it's a pretty hard fall for a franchise that won a championship not that long ago.

    Let's go ahead and strip the Title away from them. Congratulations, Lebron James, four time NBA Champion.

    I agree and disagree with what you said. You're right that the Mavs are in no way the only team guilty of this. I met a woman recently who worked for the Rockets in the mid-90s and the stories she told me about what went on there were disturbing to say the least. Not all of the incidents involved members of the Rockets organization. One was about Rodman which I'm sure will surprise no one. But there were a few prominent names that came up that shocked me.

    The part I disagree about is that this will affect the value of the team. If the freaking Clippers can sell for $2 billion after what went down with Donald Sterling, then this ain't gonna tank the net worth of NBA franchises. The only thing that'll harm the value will be if the TV contracts take a nosedive.

    I work with a lot of African men(I am not talking about african americans... Trying best not to sound ignorant but probably am). I have noticed that the culture seems to be pretty comfortable with being aggressive in a sexual nature towards women. I mean it in a way that, they say things that raise red flags in the western culture but wouldn't where they are from originally. Hope that makes sense.

    Well, I'm from/currently live in Rio de Janeiro, so I agree 100% with this post. It's a very sensitive subject for those who experience this on a daily basis. Even though I don't like the Mavs, I would never make any jokes about this.

    Gotta feel bad for the players at least. You don't wish for a decent dude like Dirk to retire on such a low note.
