Cuban On Mets: If I’m Writing A Check For $800 Million, I Expect Someone To Kiss My Ass
Dallas Mavericks owner and billionaire Mark Cuban, was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and was asked if he had any interest in buying the Mets.
His response was pretty hilarious. (Go to about 3:00 minute mark)

Looks like 100% of the team is being bandied about.
I thought that was really funny!
Nice!
I heard about this but didn’t get to see video.
Thanks for posting this HoJo.
Lucky guy? WOW He said he can write 800Million check without blinking.
I can write an 800 Million dollar check and not blink!
It would bounce but I sure as hell could write it!
I would rather have him running the Mets then Jeff Wilpon – that’s for sure!
well, don’t be so sure that it would work out better. if he turned out to be a bigger meddler (not even pretending he isn’t the ‘real”GM), would it necessarily turn out better just because he might be willing to spend more money?
and that might is big, because after writing the huge check, no guarantee that he is going to subsidize a money loser for long!
The most humble man you will EVER see.
(sarcastic)
right off the bat this cuban character has more personality than the wilponzie mob can ever dream of.he would be a breath of fresh air compared to the stuff shirt “honorable” wilponzie mob.
It’s too bad Mark Cuban and George Steinbrenner, as in his heyday, weren’t co-owners of our team now. We wouldn’t need the games for entertainment.
it’s just refreshing to see an owner with money not afraid to say he has money .this as opposed to freddye wilponzie who cries about money and his “revenue streams” whether he is spending money or not.who knew at the time jeffye wilponzie talked about ‘REVENUE STREAMS”that those streams flowed into the bernie madoff tributary?
