Mavs Moneyball — via blogmaverick.com... As much as I felt posting my "Thanks for the Advice on Josh Howard" post was the right thing to do, I have had an upset stomach all day because of it.

Linkz of the Week
BostonsportZ — ... Marc Cuban took the bold, if crazy, step of posting some umm...ignorant e-mails he got his week about Josh Howard's comments on the national anthem.

I think it was a little over-the-top to post their names and addresses, but it teaches them a lesson about the true nature of anonymity on the Internet. (He later took down the names in this post, deleting the original.) Thumbs up, Cuban. ...
