Dez Bryant Breaks The Internet

In the fourth quarter of today's Cowboys-Packers playoff game - with the score sitting at 21/26 and Cowboy dreams on the line - wide receiver Dez Bryant went up and grabbed a phenomenal catch on 4th & 2. Sporting News said, "This is the stuff dramas are made of. Only it wasn't a catch. The ball comes out slightly after he hits the ground, and it was in the hands of the officials at that point. Somewhere you never want to leave the fate of the game." As everyone knows by now, the call was reversed. The Cowboys lost the game. And the internet went crazy. Some called it karma for last weekend's game against Detroit. Below are some notable Dallas celebs who showed love for Bryant and the Cowboys:

Mark Cuban to Debut Shark Tank Proteges at Central Market

I'm a big fan of the TV show Shark Tank on ABC. Entrepreneurs seeking a cash infusion can pitch their concept to five legendary investors and see who bites. Half the fun of the show is seeing the wild, wacky and sometimes downright ingenious ideas that people have come up with. And the other half of the fun is watching all of the investors fight each other to strike the best deal and gain the right to develop and invest in a really great brand.

No one has a better killer instinct than Dallas’ own entrepreneur, billionaire and businessman, Mark Cuban. On Thursday, August 28, he will introduce North Texas to four new entrepreneurs that he personally scouted and is endorsing their products at various Central Market locations around the DFW-area. You can meet Mark Cuban and see product demonstrations from Alyssa’s Healthy Cookie, Chapul, Monkey Mat and Simple Sugars.

Twitter Titter: Mark Cuban Challenges Donald Trump

A post on Mashable earlier this week alerted me to this Twitter duel between billionaire basketball owner Mark Cuban and billionaire real estate tycoon Donald Trump.  The only thing bigger than their bank accounts is their egos and this war of words is just one of many battles these two have had.
