Here’s an interesting article from PFT. Got a few million dollars hanging around? Then you can own part of the worst run franchise in the history of sports!
As a world of children and grown-up children who act like adults so the children won’t get scared begin to make out their Christmas wish lists, here’s a item for consideration.
A 10-percent stake in the Oakland Raiders.
Jay Glazer of FOX reports that the the team is trying to sell that amount of franchise, in an effort to raise money.
We’ve separately learned that, while a partial sale is possible, the efforts aren’t yet fully active. No investment firm has been engaged, for example, and no aggressive attempt has been made to scare up a buyer.
Per a league source, the reality in Oakland is that the limited partnership contains several aging members (or, in some cases, the widows of deceased members). Some of the members might want to dilute their interest in the team.
So, here’s the plan: If someone is willing to back us, Jason and I come up with a big plan to basically rebuild the Raiders. It may or may not involve creatively getting rid of Al Davis. We’re kidding. As if he could be killed by conventional weapons.
