Tom Brady Reportedly Interested in the Chargers If He Leaves Patriots

[Boltjolt]

The rumor i heard was that Brees wanted to put together a group of investors to buy the Chargers. I could see Brady becoming a part owner long before he would play for the team. Rivers, Brees and Brady would make a nice group ownership leadership team. With probably some serious investor opportunities by their sponsors. Under Armour etc.

Why is there a rumor in the first place? Has Spano's made it leak he may sell? That would actually be a great thing. I wouldn't want him involved or his incompetent Sons.

That would be very interesting!...where did that rumor come from?....... at least there is absolutely no doubt that those three care about football, care about scoring points and care about winning!

Came from some LA Lawyer types.

They’d have to change the ownership rules unless they keep Spanos in

Why? Spanos can never sell the team? Or are you referring to the time frame? Because i never said it was something that would be soon.

Peyton Manning would bring in some deep pockets.

:coffee:

The Spanos are in it for the long haul. Dean Spanos would screw John Spanos royally if they sold.
Something tells me the new ownership would not want John Spanos as president of football operations - or whatever the hell his title is.

Brady vs Belli? My gosh, the NFL owners would be salivating at the potential ratings.

I'm not sure it has ever been made public who owns what after Alex Spanos passed away. When he passed, he owned 36% and Dean and his 3 siblings each owned 15% of the team. If he spread the 36% among his kids than anyone buying the team has to get at least 4 Spanii to agree to sell.

The nfl doesn’t allow investment groups to own teams unless there’s on guy with 30%. There might be an exception for an owner to stay in at less than that percent.

Yeah i dont think any of those QBs would be that guy. lol Im saying they are part of an investment group. Say Mark Cuban or Ballmer? Majority owner and these guys are part of that group.

Spanos wouldn't sell.

Most likely an indication that spanos is all in on the LA market.

He needs to boost the lagging PSL sales and get more Charger fans in the stands.

He sees Brady and Mcdaniels as a chance to do that.

Btw I also heard the Brees rumor too.

Now that Brady is on the decline, if he doesn’t play in NE next year, watch the NFL pull some strings to increase ticket sales in LA.

Really hard to gauge how much Brady has left in the tank as he is playing behind a crappy line with little talent at the skill positions. If the goal is to sell tickets, they may make a play for him but that is not a great solution.
