Mark Cuban calls 'national anthem police' out of control, drawing ire of Sen. Ted Cruz
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has an answer for the “national anthem police” who take issue with athletes kneeling during the pre-game song.
Cuban called out both Mark Davis, a radio talk show host in the Dallas-Fort Worth market, and Sen. Ted Cruz, who got involved in the Twitter thread on Monday morning.
Davis took to Twitter on Sunday night to voice his excitement for the Mavericks continuing their season in the NBA’s Disney World bubble.
“But the minute one player kneels during the anthem I am OUT,” Davis wrote. He tagged Mark Cuban, asking him to lead the way.
Cuban did lead the way, just not in the direction Davis wanted, and quote-tweeted it with “Bye.”
