Mark Cuban - BCS renovator?

Bizarre article about something I personally didn't know was going on:

I think he's just throwing his mouth and money at the hypocrisy hoping to shake something loose. If you called his bluff, he'd crap his pants.

Dan Wetzel on the Finebaum show even noted it's a terrible business model for such a great businessman, he surely didn't put a lot of thought into it.

re: Cuban
I'm glad to see that this fool is staying busy with important projects that take up most of his time. The rumor here is that he wants to buy the Dodgers and we already have a self-promoting, stooge for an owner. We also have Yankees in the clubhouse and washed up tomato cans in the bullpen and has-beens on the bench, not to mention buying back players who we released. Even Russell Friggen Martin has deserted the ship for New York. :cry: If Cuban comes here there will be a riot.

 

Well, at least you have Yankees in the clubhouse. It's not a total disaster.

I took it he meant washed up Yankees.

He's referring to Don Mattingly.

 

George, doesn't he fit the bill?

Bill, it's how a Dodger fan refers to Yankees, even the great ones, in a semi-derisive manner but not totally void of respect. :lol:

 

The Yankees viewed Torre and Mattingly going to the Dodgers as missionary work. They were sent out to save the great unwashed in Tinseltown.

Unfortunately, Torre was not as "filled with the spirit" as Donny Ballgame and split.

Torre was an Angel's broadcaster who should have stayed in New York and Mattingly is walking in the door with all of SoCal against him. He's an interloper who was hired by The Parking Lot Attendant (our owner) on Torre's recommendation, which has less value than a bus pass to most Dodger Dogs. We're against everybody. We're the Tea Party of MLB fans and we want to blow up everything and start over...

 

Mattingly was quoted as saying that the first thing he had to teach the Dodgers was which end of the bat to grip. The second step was to convince them that the game actually was on in spite of the fact that there were no fans present before the 3rd or after the 7th innings.

Torre confided that he could put up with the surfer boy attitudes of the players and having Larry David as an honorary 3rd base coach but not being able to find a decent cannoli or zeppole proved too much to bear.
