I thought you mean 4 billion fans
mark genius for making the move to vegas and getting his own stadium, imagine we would be worth 2 billion if we had stayed in oakland, the davis family would also be out of football and we would be owned by a hedgefund
Still remember that owners meeting where the LA committee recommended the Raiders and Chargers plan to the NFL.....then out of nowhere Jerrah and his cronies, forced the Rams down the owners throat...Kroenke did not want the Raiders any where near LA....so it was the Chargers 1 year option to move to LA. If not the Raiders would get it.
Then Adelson and Mark started to get chummy up, here's a chunk of free cash from Nevada, Clark County and a tax on hotels, Adelson said he would make up the difference....then months later, Mark kicks Adelson to the curb, borrowed BofA cash to bridge the gap. Mark got some of dad's blood in him after all, when it comes to business he don't blink....everyone gets a chuckle looking at his bowl cut....but before you know it, he made a very favorable deal for him and his partners that own a piece of the Raiders. You don't go from being laughed at by Oakland City Council, to owning your own building, an NFL team and a WNBA franchise overnight.
