Photo: Mark Cuban, the early years


I keep telling myself that's a young Gretzky on the left — partyin' it up with his adventurous buddy Cubes, minglin' with all the pretty ladies in floral prints and big earrings — but the anonymous e-mailer who sent the pics in is certain Mr. Green Plaid is, in fact, a man named Rex Cumming.

Somehow that makes these photos even better.

    I guess I have higher expectations. My bad. And as early as 1990 he had made over $2 mill. Those pics can't be to much older then that. I doubt they are from 1978. 1987 latest. Get better hookers Mark.

    At least he's not next to some dudes like many who don't like him
    who that would make gay or bi comments.
    The girls look normal to me. Probably from the 80's in an apartment.

    One of those chicks was an actress. Starred in a production of the Taming of the Shrew. Good theatre building, but I forget the name of it.

    I got news for all of you...the reports of the Celtics early demise are exaggerated and false. They are back baby. Hope you missed them because they will be playing your team again soon.

    Kevin, I think you are full of crap if you think Cuban tries that with cheerleaders. His wife would divorce him and take him for hundred of millions of dollars!

    Come on, people, these women are totally hot, considering the hairstyles and clothes they had to work with. That one in the white top and ugly skirt? Absolutely gorgeous, and probably still looking good today (divorced from some millionare in Dallas, I'll bet.)
    You can compare stats from different eras if you must, but "hot" is totally era-subjective...
