That is interesting Greg, and clearly shows Brady was well aware of the football being sold. It also brings into question Brady's motives and doing what he did in announcing his unretirement right after the auction closed. I had heard rumors there was speculation in some corners that Brady may have intentionally done the unretirement announcement to get back at the seller because he wouldn't return the football Mike Evans unfortunately threw into the stands. Have no proof or basis, just repeating rumors heard.

Such a seemingly generous offer to donate a Bitcoin in someone's name may not be what it seems, and could easily be a stunt to throw people off from looking at this retirement announcement as a form of retribution that was supposed to impact the seller, not the buyer. Just look at this thread, can easily see someone initially thinking that the timing of the announcement would give the buyer reason to cancel and back out of the purchase, to the seller's detriment. But the person doing so may not have realized that the buyer may legally still have to go through with the transaction. So possibly as a PR move they offer to donate a Bitcoin in the buyer's name to the charity of their choice.

So what, that doesn't do crap for the buyer, he's potentially still out close to $500K. The donation is only made in the buyer's name, so want to bet who's going to actually get credit on their tax return for the charitable donation? It just makes you wonder a little more if there was something else going on.
