Tom Brady never misses any chance to be in the spotlight. A week back, it was about his roast session getting teared up, while now it’s time for some business duties. As something big is up for the Las Vegas Raiders, Brady catches up with coach Antonio Pierce on the sidelines.

Tom Brady’s journey to secure his name in the ownership portfolio of the NFL has been evidence of his unwavering determination. Despite the challenges, he remained steadfast, and it was a truly memorable evening for him to see his hard work finally bear fruit.  

Brady was engrossed in serious conversation at Las Vegas’ special night

The Las Vegas Aces’ championship win was a momentous occasion for the team, marking their first title banner in two seasons. The unveiling and raising of their WNBA championship banner, along with the debut of their new silver and black uniforms mirroring the Raiders, was a celebration of their hard-earned success. 

Instead of focusing his attention on the event, all the TB12 did was strike up a conversation with the Raiders HC, Pierce. In February, the NFL GOAT finally came on track to be a limited partner with the Las Vegas Raiders. However, his journey was not a bed of roses; he had to pluck away many thorns to earn his place as a minority stakeholder. Even though his NFL ownership journey has been tough, his WNBA journey has been the opposite. Last year, after initially issuing a statement praising the acquisition, Brady and the Aces announced he purchased a minority share in the club.

Roadblocks Brady faced in his NFL ownership journey

The latest roadblock that Brady faced came on Tuesday, March 26. The NFL owners refused to vote on the TB12’s bid to purchase a stake in the football program. However, the NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell, gave some hope that the progress would be delayed since it was a thorough process. 

Charges have been brought against Mark Davis, the Raiders owner. It has been alleged that Davis approached Brady with a discounted stake. The Indianapolis Colts owner, Jim Isray, had added to the speculation, “The number just has to be a reasonable number for purchase price from Tom, is the only thing. If reasonable value says… that 10% should be $525 million, you can’t pay $175 million.” A heavy gap of reportedly $350 million prevails between the actual price of the Raiders’ share and the special offer that Brady received. 

Hence, it has been a win-win situation for Tom Brady, and now, Las Vegas Aces has risen to the spotlight. While it is still unclear what the TB12 was engrossed in while discussing with Pierce, it can be assumed that they might have been working on strategies to navigate the complexities that the NFL ownership rules have hurled at him.
