Anger as the Province of the Self-Righteous

Mark Cuban admitted he was wrong, and he apologized, although not in the most appropriate fashion. He admits it.

Kenyon Martin just won't let it go. The Denver Nuggets' forward is pretty angry about what Cuban said to his mother, but Cuban makes a good point -- what about Martin's behavior? Most of the MSM's coverage has focused upon Cuban's insult, but where is the concern about Martin's words? Are the writers less concerned because a) Martin was a participant in a game, hot and bothered, and therefore to be held to a lesser standard and b) Cuban was a spectator and should have known better? Or, is it because they're more afraid of crossing Martin than they are Cuban?

At any event, this story is overbloated, overheated, and over-discussed. Kenyon Martin should consider taking the high road that he insists Mark Cuban take. Otherwise, he has little credibility.

Two wrongs just don't make a right, even if someone else "started it."
