Trump Versus Cuban
It's no surprise that two alpha males like the feral-eyed Mark Cuban and the short fingered vulgarian Donald Trump hate each others guts. There is no room for two big cats in the relatively small reality show business jungle. A smackdown between these two was inevitable; that it would be covered by salivating media reporters was bound to occur. So, here we are, on the eve of Trump's show, and Mark Cuban tears Donald Trump a new orifice in his blog today (billionaire bloggers?), saying, among other things:
"Nice job on Leno last night Donald. At least you admitted that you hadnt seen The Benefactor. But saying that it will fail. Thats a little much Donald. Even from you.
"Lets get a couple things straight here. First, The Benefactor is a good show. Its fun, its entertaining, its engaging and makes you think. How it will do in the ratings, is anyone's guess. I don't have the luxury of premiering after Friends."
Nothing but a bona fide hustla, this Mark Cuban. He's still 'bout it:
"... 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. That the show, as you put it, is a job interview to come work for you. So Donald, when the promos for this years show come on and one contestant says that 'the women would eat their young,' or that the 'men are all chauvinists,' is that a reflection of the people you interview for jobs in your companies?"
I like this Mark Cuban, he's the next George Foreman's grill, poppie:
"... The Apprentice is a knockoff of Survivor."
"... When its all said and done Donald, our producers, casts and timeslots have far more to do with the success of our shows than you and I. We each contribute in our own ways, but we are along for the ride. The Apprentice�s success depended far more on Sam being a goof and Omarosa being a drama queen than anything you did. Thats why you kept on bringing them back. The Benefactor �s success will depend on how the audience responds to a 2nd grade teacher with satanic like tattoos , a black gay bartender who carries around a picture of Oprah and asks it what Oprah would do , a women's professional football player who wants to kick everyone�s ass, a super hot beauty queen, who is far from as innocent as she tries to come across.. and 12 others, who are incredibly competitive and realize that for a million dollars, the game is always on."
Nothing but a party up in this bitch.
