As for "he's a billionaire," do you think billionaires don't get sued all the time? Do you realize that Cuban's wealth and legal d**k-swinging leverage is dwarfed by the folks on the other side of his Shark Tank contract (Disney/ABC)? Trust me--whatever advantages you think a guy like Cuban has in negotiating a contract with his lawyers, a mega international media conglomerate has vastly more.
No need to sue when you can blacklist... If buying a MLB team becomes a next-to-impossible task after crossing a guy like David Stern, then getting a role as a tree in a community theater production would be just as difficult after crossing a guy like Bob Iger.
