Another point to consider in comparing Cuban and Hicks is how big contracts are weighing down their respective franchises. A-Rod is the best all around player in baseball, but he wasn't (and isn't) worth $250 million over 10 years. Raef's contract has had the same chilling effect on Cuban...he has made mistakes in the past, and now he is a little more hesitant to throw money around...no crime there. It's not an apples to apples comparison, but I think each contract is having a similar effect.
