    That and possibly the price of your reacharound is a bit low. Might as well call you Tom Peterson.

    He's to blame because he chose cashing out (money) over the team.

    Here's what I found:

    "Several NFL players have done the "nose wipe" gesture, which references a gang signal, after a big play. This is now deemed an "unsportsmanlike" act, as is a throat slash or a simulated gun act, according to the statement"

    I did the same search. Found the same thing. So now you're not allowed to wipe your nose after doing something good in the NFL. Which I guess kind of makes sense... Since you're actually wiping your face mask.

    True. But the NFL did ban the nose wipe celebration.

    Wait, are you talking before or after he sold his share to the Adelson people? Was there more than one sale? Mark Cuban is one of the more loved owners in the NBA.
    What social hatred are you talking about that would make him sell his stake in the team?

    He addressed the threats to his wife and kids personally. I felt hearing it that it was genuine. Yes many loved him as an owner but in this world there are always haters and he just felt it was time to back away for the good of his family.

    Agreed but for MVP I think they're both pretty unrealistic. ChatGPT is such a casual.
