I read something last year that after firing gruden and having to pay him along with some other details that Davis actually couldn’t fire McDaniels if he wanted to cause the franchise didn’t have enough actual free money on hand to pay both coaches.  I never verified but when Vegas was at their worst last year and fans wanted the coach fired that article popped up. Of course it was just on social media so it could be total bologna 

 

They were #7 in total revenue last year.  After 1 year (2022) in their new stadium, they were #1 in ticket revenue.  2023 data not available yet.

Rumor has it he will be bringing his own personal Barber as part of the deal.

Honestly, who the hell cares.

 

Gotta spend al that money one way or another.

I thought he spent it all on the Refs?

So apparently it's moving forward.

 

 

[Mr. WEO]

Not sure what the approval process is but pretty much anyone with the cash and an owner who is offering can buy a stake in a team.

Looks like it’s official no broadcast career for Tom anytime soon although running the Raiders he’ll age more in 1 year than he did in 20 playing in the nfl

[The Frankish Reich]

Maybe he can pledge his FTX stock to Mark Davis in exchange for a stake in the franchise.

As part of an endorsement agreement Mr. Brady signed in 2021, FTX had paid him $30 million, a deal that consisted almost entirely of FTX stock, three people with knowledge of the contract said. Mr. Brady’s wife at the time, the supermodel Gisele Bündchen, was paid $18 million in FTX stock, one of the people said.

Now FTX is bankrupt, and Mr. Bankman-Fried is facing criminal fraud charges. Mr. Brady, 45, and Ms. Bündchen, 42, have been sued by a group of FTX customers seeking compensation from the celebrities who endorsed the exchange. On top of it all, the terms of the deal would have required the former couple, who divorced last year, to pay taxes on at least some of their now worthless FTX stock, two people familiar with the endorsement deal said.

I have no interest until if and when things escalate to high-level meetings.

Connect the dots, it's right in front of you.

I have no doubt the reports are true. I was referencing a guy on this board who inspired much mirth by talking about the "high level meetings" he had to attend. It was a thing here for a while.

[RiotAct]

Discussions intensify…

[Nextmanup]

I have no idea what they are planning here, but if Tom is going to end up as a suit in a luxury box at all the Raiders games helping to work with the team behind closed doors, and if that keeps him off our TV screens discussing football, that's PERFECT.

So was the "connect the dots" reference.

 

 

You got to wonder who is Dunkirk Don these days?  Or he may just not have time for us.
