Except for the Yankee part, I agree with you 100%.

To expand on my remark a bit more. He's actually a carpetbagger of the worst kind. Mark Cuban is a northerner who made an enormous fortune here in Texas but never embraced the values of the Lone Star state. He's anti-gun, anti-Christian, anti-Conservative pro-abortion and hates the principles of the Founding Fathers.

Okay, I can’t argue with that. I just don’t like the “Yankee” epithet used by southerners. I defend the south quite often, make no bones of the fact I’ve seen more racism above the Madon Dixon line than below it. I just don’t cotton to using such terms willy nilly be they against northerners or people from Dixie.

From Wiki:

Cuban was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,[6][7] and grew up in the affluent suburb of Mount Lebanon, to a Jewish[8] working-class family. The surname “Cuban” was shortened from “Chabenisky” when his Russian grandparents landed on Ellis Island.

Plus you left out the part about him being generally an attention whore ahole, though your first post definitely gave the gist of it!
