Mark Cuban NFL Criticisms in Perspective (1)

Mark Cuban

I posted the following on Google+:

Just watch. Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered. When you try to take it too far, people turn the other way. I'm just telling you, when you've got a good thing and you get greedy, it always, always, always, always, always turns on you. That's rule No. 1 of business.

Reference: Cuban: With TV deal, NFL is 'hoggy.'

There is no way to be certain about the future (i.e., not until we make time travel a reality). So Mark Cuban may - or may not - be right about the NFL imploding in the next decade. But for sure what he is doing in the present is stirring the pot. Remember, he's an NBA owner, who has just taken one of the boldest competitive steps I know: Cross the line into another sport, and deign to get on the gridiron with big, money-muscled owners.

Thank you for reading, and let me know what you think!
