Robert Kraft is one of the most noteworthy owners in professional sports and it is all thanks to his work with the New England Patriots who remain one of the greatest dynasties in the entire history of the NFL. Kraft has six Super Bowl rings with the team, however, as part of the All In Challenge to help support charities associated with COVID-19, Kraft decided to auction off one of his rings.

As it turns out, he decided to give up his fifth ring which was actually won in 2017 when the Patriots came back from a 28-3 deficit against the Atlanta Falcons. This is perhaps the most historic championship the Patriots have and as you can imagine, it auctioned for an insane amount of money. According to TMZ, one lucky fan was able to secure the ring for $1,025,000.

The owner announced the donation on Twitter. “Just procured 10,000+ masks ( N-95) and am passing them along to Indiana State Dept. of Health for distribution as most urgently needed. #INthistogether.”

During the COVID-19 outbreak, masks of all kinds have been in short supply at hospitals across the country, leaving healthcare workers on the front lines at risk.

Irsay also donated $1 million to the Gleaners Food Bank in Indianapolis and asked Colts fans to help raise another $200,000 to help feed children out of school and families out of work because of the outbreak. The $200,000 goal was reached within one day.

Last week, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft sent his team plane to, China, where it picked up 1.2 million N95 masks to bring back to New England. 300,000 masks were sent to New York-area hospitals by way of a Patriots-branded tractor-trailer.

New York Nets owner Joseph Tsai and his wife, Clara Wu, secured 2,000 ventilators, 170,000 goggles and 2.6 million surgical masks from China that were sent to New York. The Knicks, and NBA as a whole, followed suit helping to donate over 1 million surgical masks.

Robert Kraft arranged for over 1 million N95 masks, used by health workers to protect themselves amid increased exposure to coronavirus, to be sent to the United States from China, using the Patriots jet to fly all the supplies back. As the U.S. experiences major shortages of crucial protective equipment, such as masks and gloves, many public figures are using their money and resources to step in and allete some of these shortages. Patriots owner Robert Kraft is among these people, as he reportedly negotiated with some folks in power around the world to have tons of N95 masks provided to the U.S. Not only that, but Kraft also used the Patriots private jet to pick up the supplies in Shenzhen, China, and bring them back to the States.

The plane arrived in Shenzhen on Thursday morning (April 2nd), and could only remain grounded for three hours while suited-up workers loaded the equipment onboard. Although the plane was upgraded to bear the extra cargo, Kraft’s initial agreement of 1.7 million masks took up too much space, so the plane ended up only only bringing back the 1.2 million that could fit. Kraft reportedly spent “several million dollars” on the mission, and was thanked by Charlie Baker, the Governor of Massachusetts where the majority of the masks will be sent.

“No days off,” Baker said. “Thanks to some serious teamwork, Massachusetts is set to receive over 1 million N95 masks for our front-line workers. Huge thanks to the Krafts and several dedicated partners for making this happen.” The plan is for the MA National Guard to deliver the masks to a central stockpile in Marlborough. Due to critical shortages, 300,000 of the masks will be reportedly be delivered to New York.

“It is an honour for our family to be a part of this humanitarian mission,” said Kraft in a statement. “We knew that purchasing greatly-needed N95 masks and providing the Patriots plane to expedite their delivery to local hospitals would immediately help protect our courageous healthcare professionals. Multiple organizations across the public and private sectors, all of which were in lockstep with Governor Charlie Baker’s visionary leadership, worked together to execute this mission with the purpose of helping save lives. I truly hope that in doing so, we can in some way inspire others to find creative ways to give more in support of our doctors, nurses and first responders. It’s nice to care for those who provide such compassionate care for us.”

Patriots owner Robert Kraft has taken out a full-page ad in Sunday's edition of the Tampa Bay Times to thank Tom Brady for his time as the Patriots' quarterback, according to ESPN.

"For 20 amazing years, you gave us everything you had," the ad reads. "When you arrived as a sixth-round pick -- and the best selection this franchise has ever made -- no one imagined all you'd accomplish or how much you'd soon mean to an entire region."

Brady was drafted by the Patriots in the 6th round of the 2000 NFL draft and went on to win six Super Bowl rings. 

"Your passion for the game, competitiveness, and constant pursuit of excellence resulted in an unprecedented six Super Bowl victories, nine conference championships, and 17 division titles," the ad continues. "You’re now recognized as the greatest of all time for what you’ve accomplished on the field, but you’re an even better person."

Earlier this week, after months of rumors and hinting, Brady signed a two-year, $50 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He joins Tamps Bay as a 42-year-old quarterback entering his 21st season in the NFL. His statistics have yet to slow down, recording 24 touchdowns and only 8 interceptions in 2019.

"Take care of him. You got a great one," the message concludes.

Tom Brady is easily the most important player in the history of the New England Patriots franchise. Brady spent 20 years with the team and helped them win six Super Bowls. He will most likely go down as the greatest football player of all time just based on his accomplishments alone. Having said that, Brady decided to leave the team, as of yesterday. The announcement sent shockwaves throughout the league and social media. It's being reported that Brady will now join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Patriots fans are rightfully upset about the decision but they aren't blaming the star. In fact, one fan decided he wanted to stage a protest at the TB12 facility in Boston. As you can see, there is a bouquet of flowers on the floor while a man holds up two signs. The first says "Thank you Tommy" and the other reads "Drop Dead Kraft." Of course, the latter is referencing team owner, Robert Kraft.

Dana White found himself in a peculiar situation the other day as he got on a phone call with Tom Brady. Brady is going to be a free agent in just a couple of weeks from now and has a big decision to make. During the phone call, which was recorded live, White urged Brady to come join the Las Vegas Raiders. As the president of the UFC, it shouldn’t be surprising that White would want Brady to come over the Las Vegas as it would certainly create buzz for the relocation.

White recently appeared on Always Late with Katie Nolan where he discussed the phone call with Nolan. As he described, he’s a Patriots fan at heart and that he would prefer Brady to stay in New England although if he were to move, it should be New England. He also admitted that owner Robert Kraft was angered over the call.

“He was not happy with me,” White said of Kraft. ” “This thing is being blown out of proportion. I am being falsely accused here. Now, first of all, what I said was, ‘I’m a Boston guy. I want him to play for the Patriots. But if that doesn’t happen, we want him in Vegas,’ ” White clarified, when pressed by Nolan. “I don’t want him going to California or any of these other teams. I want him coming here (to Las Vegas). If he doesn’t play in Boston, if he doesn’t retire and end his career there like he should, then he needs to come to Vegas.”

It remains to be seen what Brady decides although if there is one thing for sure, you can count on us to report it so keep it locked to HNHH as the free agency period approaches. 

Heading into March, Tom Brady will be in a position he's never had to deal with before. The six-time Super Bowl-champion is about to become a free agent for the first time in his entire career. The New England Patriots and Tom Brady have been married for 20 years now and they have come together for one of the best dynasties in the history of sports. Brady is on the decline but at 42 years old, some teams feel like he is still good enough to help their team go out and win a championship. Meanwhile, if the Patriots do let Brady walk, it will be difficult to find a suitable replacement. 

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Patriots' reasoning for letting Tom Brady go to free agency was simple. They want Brady and head coach Bill Belichick to take their time deciding if it would make sense to continue their relationship. Belichick is very particular about his personnel and if he doesn't feel like Brady is good enough anymore, he could say goodbye in swift fashion.

Meek Mill has his sights set on becoming one of the most established (and financially wealthy) businessmen to have ever come out of the rap game. He’s been making big moves but, for some reason, he continues to get side-tracked by dramatic happenings and beef. If he continues on this path, the Philadelphia native will surely level up and become the next rap mogul, like Hov or Diddy. He’s expecting another little one — his first with girlfriend Milan Harris — and that means that the money needs to keep coming in. Meek attended a “billionaire summit” with Robert Kraft and a bunch of other financial giants, taking in information like a sponge and utilizing it in his everyday life. At the end of it all, he posed for a picture with some powerful people and his plus-one, Milan.

“BILLIONAIRE SUMMIT was learning experience,” wrote Meek Mill on Instagram, posing next to his close friend Kraft and his pregnant girlfriend Harris. Earlier in the day, he referred to the event as “billionaire school,” promising to retain all the information presented to him so he could continue to level up and impress the world with his business savvy. The Dreamchasers king is on the way up.

Do you think Meek Mill will be the next rapper to make it to a billi? He’s definitely making the right moves.

Michael G. Rubin, the CEO and majority owner for the e-commerce retailer, Fanatics, has become the curator for one of the hottest Super Bowl pre-parties in existence in just a single year. Last year, the Fanatics Super Bowl pre-party featured performances by the likes of Meek Mill and Cardi B and one of the best moments in recent hip-hop history as Robert Kraft took to the stage in a diamond-encrusted Dreamchasers chain and danced alongside the “Bickenhead” rapper. While Kraft’s surroundings might have influenced him to make some questionable decisions, Rubin, Kraft, Meek Mill, and Jay Z have since then come together to fight against injustice. And now, this year the Fanatics Super Bowl pre-party is scheduled to feature new headliners, Post Malone and The Migos.

According to Page Six, not only will the Fanatics Super Bowl 2020 Bash performance stage will remain to be top-tier of all the parties surrounding the final game of the NFL season, so will the guest list. Some of the guests expected to attend Mike Rubin’s Super Bowl celebration include the likes of  Kevin Hart, Shaquille O’Neal, Alex Rodriguez, Saquon Barkley, Todd Gurley, CC Sabathia, Aaron Judge, Nick Lachey, Erin Andrews, Robert Kraft, and more.

With Culture 3, presumably in the works, and word of a possible release date leaking onto the internet, The Migos are looking to continue their reign as one of the most prominent rap collectives in hip-hop. And with Post Malone revealing he wants to drop an album this year all the while starring in not one but two Super Bowl commercials for Doritos and Bud Light, this year’s Fanatics Super Bowl pre-party is shaping up to be one of the premier events surrounding Super Bowl Sunday.

Tom Brady is set to become a free agent for the very first time in his career which is something that has New England Patriots fans on edge. There are various rumors that Brady actually wants to leave the franchise and become a mentor for a young quarterback. Regardless, there are plenty of Patriots fans who are optimistic that the Patriots star will want to return to the team, despite his lackluster statistics last season.

While Bill Belichick and Brady may have other plans, it appears as though owner Robert Kraft is firm on his stance when it comes to his star QB. TMZ recently caught up with Kraft and asked him if he plans to keep the six-time champion. Kraft came back with a simple response saying “we plan to.”

Free agency will certainly be interesting as Brady is the highest-profile player available. As of next season, Brady will be 43 years old and is expected to show signs of decline. He is still a serviceable quarterback but it still remains to be seen whether or not he can have some success outside of the Belichick system.

Let us know in the comments below which team you would like to see Brady play for, next season.
