Abstract

The article focuses on clarifying that Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta Platforms Inc., and Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Inc., are not planning to bid for the National Football League's Seattle Seahawks, despite recent rumors. The Seahawks, who won the Super Bowl in February, are currently up for sale with an expected price exceeding $10 billion, potentially the largest NFL franchise sale to date. The team is owned by the estate of the late Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, with his sister Jody Allen managing the sale to fund charitable causes. Both Zuckerberg and Cook have officially denied any involvement in purchasing the team.
