LEFTOVERS Another Warrior gives Mark Cuban trouble

* 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 apparently is 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."

* Pennsylvania Gov. Edward Rendell hasn't 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 "Political Capital With Al Hunt."

The Carolina Panthers took Jarrett with the 45th pick.

* 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."
