I believe Cuban is acting like a moron, but he is making a smart move. He wants the crowd to focus on him and forget to put pressure on the Mavs and refs.
It's up to you Spurs fans, to ignore this spoiled brat, and concentrate on cheering for the Spurs.

Point is, SA city increases tax for Spurs, not for Kids. SA is using Dallas money for kids. Don't argue with me by those PR sheeeeet. If SA cares, if Spurs cares, why 50 has to be this way.
I have no doubt about 50. Bruce? You want your kids grow up like him? give me a break.
Well, like I said, this is education poblem. Sorry, this is not culture problem. :froQuote:

Does it really matter if the Riverwalk is "muddy" or not? It's not meant for swimming and drinking ANYWAY. It's a natural river, would he like it to be crystal clear?
He's such an idiot.

You know, with the fractured grammar and pitiful spelling you display, you're the last one who should be talking about any "education poblem" [sic].Quote:

The irony of the "muddy" smack is the SA river is spring fed and literally comes out of the ground fresh and clear about 3 miles upriver...(on the Incarnate Word property)...flows through Brackenridge Park and right into the riverwalk...Quote:

Think about being a premiere player on the Mavs, and you have an a-hole like Cuban getting in the huddles with you in timeouts. But of course you can't say anything because he OWNS the team. He has a hard time keeping good talent like someone said above, because think about it, if you were a top player you don't want to have to listen to his shit.
The only thing cultural about Dallas is Sue Ellen And Pamela Ewing, damm they were hot back in the day. :drunk

Clear water now being added to S.A.'s green river

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban might not be able to see his smiling reflection just yet, but the water flowing along the San Antonio River Walk is on its way to being healthy, if not beautiful.
The San Antonio Water System this week began infusing recycled, treated wastewater into the San Antonio River at the head of the Convention Center loop. It's adding 1 million gallons daily of highly treated, crystal-clear water into an area where the river water tends to stagnate.
The difference won't be miraculous and the ghoulish green color won't vanish, water system officials warned. But slowly, the recycled water is expected to improve overall water quality by flushing what now is a basin with no circulation.
"Even though it's just been about two days into it at this point, we've begun to see very good indications that it's going to help with flow and clarity of the river in this particular area because this is an isolated loop of the river," SAWS spokeswoman Anne Hayden said.
The River Walk's image took a beating earlier this year at the hands of the opinionated owner of the Dallas Mavericks, who stoked public passions during the NBA playoffs by decrying San Antonio's famed tourist attraction as "nasty" and an "ugly-ass, muddy-watered thing."
The new water won't take the greenish tinge out of the water, but it will make for a cleaner, healthier river, said Ron Smudy, assistant director of the city's Parks and Recreation Department.
The additional water, which began being pumped in late Wednesday, builds on another project going on in Brackenridge Park behind the Witte Museum.
There, for about five years, 6 million gallons of treated wastewater has been infused each day into the river to keep it flowing when its springs are dry.
"The health of a river is related to the flow of the river," Smudy said. "So that's what we're doing here is enhancing the flow. The river's got a pretty large volume of water in it, so it's going to take some time to see some significant impact there.
"As of today, the river operations people have not seen a huge impact," he added.
Although the highly treated wastewater is clear, Smudy said people should not expect the inflow of new water to flush away the greenish-looking water that's there now.
"What you see when you look in the river — and everybody thinks it's the color of the water — is the reflection of the river bottom," Smudy said.
Hayden agreed.
"We don't know how much difference it's going to make in the downtown portion of the river or even in this loop that it's introduced to, but it's a good start and something we're real excited about," Hayden said.
Flows will be higher in the heat of the summer, but on an annual average, SAWS will pump 600,000 gallons a day of recycled water into the convention center leg of the River Walk, Hayden said.
She said SAWS paid for the project under a 1995 agreement it made when the city expanded the Convention Center.
Hayden said SAWS' goal is simply to improve the quality of water in the river.
"We're hoping that it reduces turbidity or, in layman's terms, increases clarity," she said. "It should help with oxygen levels and with dilution and with flow."
The use of recycled water could significantly improve water quality in the river loop and the extension to the Convention Center, said Greg Rothe, general manager of the San Antonio River Authority."That's a dead-end system that really doesn't have any continuing flow through it," Rothe said. "By introducing this water, we can get a positive flow back to the main channel of the river."

Cuban = genius :smokin
Now you'll be able to see the shopping carts and car tires without draining the river.
Sweet.
