I read Mark Cuban's blog from time to time. His blog is a little heavy on the sports talk, but Mark's got some fairly good business insights. He's also working on a new search engine. ..kinda cool
I just love the rivalry between him and Donald. Here's a short excerpt from his blog where he is ripping into The Donald.

Donald please?
Nice job on Leno last night Donald. At least you admitted that you hadn?t seen The Benefactor. But saying that it will fail. That?s a little much Donald, even from you.
Let?s get a couple things straight here. First, The Benefactor is a good show. It?s fun, it?s entertaining, it?s engaging and makes you think. How it will do in the ratings, is anyones guess. I don?t have the luxury of premiering after Friends. The good news is, if people watch it, they will like it. The better news is that ABC liked it so much that they have decided to not only run it in its Monday time slot, but also on Thursday as well. Opposite The Apprentice. How ironic will it be that people watching your show, and flipping through the channels in breaks, can and will sample The Benefactor and get excited about the show. Isn?t the TV business fun!
Speaking of business, I don?t think its dawned on you just how hard Mark Burnett threw you under the bus. Burnett is brilliant no doubt about it. You were right when you said he is one of the best in the business. He is.
Here?s the rub Donald, and I don?t think you have picked up on this, but your advertisers and placement partners surely will. You think The Apprentice, which really is a good show, is a positive reflection of your business acumen..
