Pat Croce gets 'Down'

Were Mark Cuban and Tony Robbins to have a love child, it might be someone like Pat Croce. The former owner of basketball's 76ers franchise mixes entrepreneurial verve and motivational-guru gobbledygook with just the kind of overcaffeinated style that makes him made for video. Let's put it this way: he makes Tom Cruise look subdued. Don't take my word for it; peep "Down to Business with Pat Croce," a webisode from online studio DECA that just began syndication on Portfolio.com. In it Croce interviews C-list business figures like Mahalo's Jason Calcanis and Comedy.com's Dean Valentine with trademark intensity. Wake me up when he lands a guest worthy of Charlie Rose's table.
