Well... I look at that in this context... how would I fare if I felt like speaking out politically at work? Maybe not too well as my boss is a liberal atheist. So, the players and the owners (imo) are always on the clock due to their exposure.

Do what I did a long time ago -- stop listening to the man and just enjoy the game... Mark Cuban says way too much stupid sh!t to spend your time getting angry over.
