Money talks, and talks ...

Donald Trump and Mark Cuban have more than 2 billion of the same thing in common, namely the dollars that make up their individual estimated net worth.

But the billionaire boys club is apparently rife with strife.

According to the New York Post, Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, was “fuming” about comments Trump made about him on ESPN Radio last week.

Among other things, Trump reportedly said Cuban “probably always wanted to be a winner all his life, and if you look like him, you can’t be a winner. So he wants to put himself in the place of the players, so what happens is, the team choked.”

Trump also chastised Cuban for his attempt at a reality show.

In an e-mail to the Post’s Page Six, Cuban responded: “I guess Donald is still upset that he can’t afford to buy an NBA team. No doubt the cash requirements of more than $10,000 created a problem for him. Hopefully he will sell enough Trump Steaks, Trump Perfume and Trump Dolls to save some money and buy a team. Then we can see how he does. Until then he is a wannabe that needs to get a new spiel.”

Trivia time

Which quarterbacks in the Pro Football Hall of Fame were selected in the Major League Baseball amateur draft?

Jarrett fan

Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell has never been shy about voicing his opinion on the NFL draft as it pertains to the Philadelphia Eagles.

In 1999, for example, the former mayor of the City of Brotherly Love wanted the team to draft running back Ricky Williams over quarterback Donovan McNabb.

On Friday, during an interview on a political-themed television show, Rendell said the Eagles should have drafted USC receiver Dwayne Jarrett instead of quarterback Kevin Kolb with its first pick, the 36th overall.

“It boggles the entire mind. It was stunning to all of us,” Rendell said on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital With Al Hunt.”

Jarrett was taken with the 45th pick by Carolina.

“I think we are going to rue the day we didn’t pick him,” Rendell said.

Magic formula

Magic Johnson is not quite in Trump or Cuban’s financial league, but the former Laker apparently intends to get there.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, Johnson has ownership in more than 100 Starbucks Coffee shops, more then 30 Burger King restaurants, movie theaters, health clubs, food catering businesses, a real estate development company and other chain restaurants.

Last week, at the Black Enterprise Entrepreneurs Conference in Orlando, Johnson spoke about hiring top talent for upper-management positions.

“My job is to make them millionaires,” he told the Sentinel. “Their job is to make me a billionaire.”

Pounds of protest

If you’re fed up with the high price of stadium fare in Southern California, be thankful for your Dodger Dogs.

The Sun newspaper reports that English soccer fans are up in arms over food prices for the FA Cup Final on Saturday at Wembley Stadium. Chelsea and Manchester United fans were threatening to team up in a boycott of the food that includes near-$8 hot dogs and a $16 burger meal.

Alex Horner, Wembley’s managing director, defended the prices.

“We are talking about an Aberdeen Angus pure beef burger with cheddar cheese.”

Such a deal.

Trivia answer

Dan Marino and John Elway. The Kansas City Royals selected the high school seniors in the 1979 draft. Marino, a pitcher, was taken in the fourth round, Elway, an outfielder, in the 18th. The former Granada Hills High star went to Stanford and eventually signed with the New York Yankees in 1981 after he was drafted in the second round with the team’s first pick.

And finally

Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times, on the minor league New Hampshire Fisher Cats’ Curt Schilling Doll Night promotion: “Toy experts said the giveaways were obviously the very latest in Schilling bobbleheads: It sticks its bloody foot in its mouth at the very mention of a Barry Bonds doll.”
