Good times

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban came under fire recently when, talking about bigotry in light of the Donald Sterling NBA mess, he said: "If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it's late at night, I'm walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street, there's a guy that has tattoos all over his face--white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere--I'm walking back to the other side of the street."

Today, he kind of apologized on Twitter.

Your thoughts on what he said, and his apology, in the comments, please.
