As of 2004 the franchise is valued at around $675 million, having won the Super Bowl in 2003. Also in 2003 he made a failed bid for the MLB team, the LA Dodgers.

In 2004 he was in talks with English Football team Manchester United regarding a buy-out – a move unwelcomed by many fans and leading to pitch invasions and protests. He continued to increase his shareholding and from 19 October, 2004 held 28.11% of the company.
