Mark Cuban got spitting mad on Saturday after Bleacher Report posted a video on Twitter with the tag line “Dirk Forever” showing Dirk Nowitzki throwing up an air ball.
It was a funny video, some might say, about a legendary player. But Cuban didn’t take it well. He tweeted, the deleted this message.

This is hardly the first time Cuban has exploded over what some might consider to be a harmless gag. We will say that Bleacher Report did also delete their tweet and that there was support for both parties on social media.
But honestly, there really was no reason for Cuban to get this mad about something like this, at least in this scribe’s opinion. Especially when Cuban himself has been such an attack dog on some other issues that likely rub many Americans the wrong way.
