Mark Cuban Epic Rant Against Senator Ted Cruz
Dallas Mavs owner Mark Cuban is calling out Republican Texas Senator Ted Cruz.
From TMZ.com:
It all started when a radio talk show host from Texas tweeted at the Dallas Mavericks owner that if any of his players kneel during the national anthem when the season resumes next week, he won't support the team anymore.
Cuban responded -- "Bye" ... adding, "The National Anthem Police in this country are out of control."
"If you want to complain, complain to your boss and ask why they don't play the National Anthem every day before you start work."
That's when Ted Cruz chimed in ... saying, "Really??!? NBA is telling everyone who stands for the flag, who honors our cops and our veterans, to 'piss off'? In Texas, no less? Good luck with that."
Cruz didn't tag Cuban in his tweet -- and Cuban called him out for it ... saying, "Have some balls for once @tedcruz. Speak to me. It's my tweet."
