It's from the HBO show Silicon Valley. The Russ Hanneman character was (loosely) based on Cuban.

I heard Cuban speak at AP sports convention years ago. He says he and his partners were depressed going into the meeting with yahoo because they were sure the execs would immediately see that their plan was BS. They didn't. So, dumb guy Cuban got rich by finding dumber guys.
