5 years ago I started Sports Geek and one of the guys I looked up to was Mark Cuban, I've always said he is a Sports Geek like me just with a bigger bank balance. It was great to finally catch up and chat to Mark about his new apps Cyber Dust and Xpire, the changing NBA landscape, Shark Tank and his beloved Dallas Mavericks.
