Bon Jovi, the Bills and Operation Big Tree: Inside Trump's Plot to Buy an NFL Team | PTFO

- Before he came down the golden escalator, Donald Trump was desperate to own a pro-football franchise on the cheap. So he dispatched a political emissary with a mission for five mischievous super-fans: ban Bon Jovi from Buffalo, so that Trump could purchase the Bills instead of him. Correspondent Noah Shachtman travels to an alternate universe where, associates say, Trump would have occupied the owner's box instead of the Oval Office - and finds evidence, on a literal bridge of the American divide, that we're still halfway there.

Is Trump's Whole Political Career Just a Cockeyed Revenge Plot Against the NFL?

Man this gets weirder and weirder is the more you listen.
Thanks for covering this, feels like the follow up to the USFL 30 for 30. Great story of no heroes
Pablo on point with the lyric puns in this one
I dont watch every episode, but holy hell, when i do : most enjoyable part of my day
Gasbag magic!
34:20 The sarcasm in his response is undeniable 😂
amazing! Can't wait to watch the movie!
Directed by Vincent Gallo
Mother of god this was gold!
So awesome as always. Best n the biz pablo thank u!
Pablo, can you please do an episode about that ESPN football show back in 2003 called Playmakers? Apparently, the NFL hated the show and got it canceled.
YES
was a great show. Bummer it got cancelled.
GREAT STORY
My favorite story of Trump is him calling up the Wilson family and offering “a billion dollars in cash.”
As a Bills fan, can I be happy?
I have no doubt, if he would have won the bid, he would have run the team so poorly that he would be forced to sell and/or move the team. In fact, dunno if the timing quite fits, but I bet he would have tried to beat Mark Davis to the punch and move the team to Vegas. So, I guess the question is, would I have accepted the death of my most cherished sports team if it meant that Trump's political career never started?
It's interesting but the team was always going to either the Pegula's or the Jacobs family (they would have stepped in if the Pegula's didn't). Wilson wanted his legacy to be he kept the team in WNY. Bon Jovi and Trump never had a chance.
hey Pablo, will you do one of these on Jerry Jones, about when he bought the cowboys? i'd like to know how it really happened
the link to the rolling stone article didn't work
The valuation of the Dallas Cowboys explains the shitty look Don wears around all the time.
i hope trumpty dumpty watches this.
you can argue that trump not getting the Bills is good actually because he is going to lose for the second time by a lot, the republican party will be in chaos and we might be ready to put the American far right in the rearview mirror in 2025. Now, if a more moderate republican candidate had been selected in 2016, we might be right now in a much more serious political situation
