On the Friday, 8/14/2009 edition of the ESPN show Pardon the Interruption, host Michael Wilbon called out the Dallas Mavericks’s Dirk Nowitzki, calling him “soft” and “weak” for letting team owner Mark Cuban say “no” to Dirk playing for his German National Team in the upcoming European Championships.
