Haven’t heard about any national anthem protests at Mavericks games? There’s a good reason for that: Dallas isn’t and won’t be playing “The Star-Spangled Banner” anymore.
Mark Cuban told The Athletic it was his decision to eliminate the tradition of playing the anthem before games. The move went by unnoticed through the first 13 combined preseason and regular-season games at American Airlines Center because the Mavericks did not publicize it, either within the organization or through an announcement to media. Monday marked the first game in which the Mavericks allowed a limited number of fans into their arena.

Cuban just torched his chance to run for President in 2024, obviously he was never serious about it.
He's a gutless puke, trying to keep it quiet for as long as he did.
Well, ain’t that unspecial.
Well, ain’t that unspecial.
Cuban spent the Bush years funding anti troop movies. He’s a degenerate.
It could be worse. He could pull a Super Bowl move and play the Negro national anthem.
When does the shooting begin?
Beat me by a minute. The national anthem was a requirement for sporting events during the 30’s. Took our mind off the depression. Orwell-like. Passed by congress. it should have been stopped decades ago so now Cuban makes a bigger name for himself by looking for a fight. He wants to be POTUS.
I suggest that we send that son of a bitch, Mark Cuban, back to Cuba! Who the hell watches the NBA anyway? Not me.
It has been at least 30 years since I have watched on TV and only once have I seen a game in person. That was when my wife won 2 tickets to see the Orlando Magic. We were sitting in the DeVos Family seats....on the floor under the backboard.
The game is foul ball, stuff ball, too many steps ball and will never be the game it once was!
Here’s hoping Cuban loses his stash on a stupid play..
He WILL continue to play the Communist Chinese national anthem to please his Chinese masters.
Oh, he must want to run for office.
It would be nice if the fans did it on their own.
I've always thought that the national anthem had no place in the football game with the exception of army vs navy game.
All part of their evil plan.
Just what I would have expected from Mark Cuban
Man, if it weren't for Gonzaga basketball, my life would be nearly totally devoid of sports. I can thank Coach Mark Few for that, he's built a program based on family values, and it's growing stronger every day.
I've probably bored many folks here with my stories, so I won't belabor the point tonight.
The Chi-Com national anthem is more appropriate.
The left ruins everything it touches.
No national anthem, but lots of BLM bull caca to replace it.
