AMY TRASK // SPORT EXECUTIVE
“She is an American sports executive, author, and lawyer from California. She is the former CEO of the Oakland Raiders, the first woman to be one of an NFL team. Trask has also been referred to as the "Princess of Darkness" by Raiders fans.”
Mark Davis Doesn't Own The Raiders In A Different Timeline
An interesting tidbit dropped from former Raiders CEO Amy Trask this week: it turns out Mark Davis almost doesn't own the team if not for her.
Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis is a polarizing figure, and that’s putting it lightly. Still, it turns out there’s a timeline of events where he doesn’t end up owning the Silver and Black following his father’s passing. The Raiders, both on and off the field, have seen some turbulent times under Mark. The move from Oakland to Las Vegas is still a sour chapter in team history, at least for some…

“Greg Papa’s Frank Response on Why He’s no Longer The Oakland Raiders Radio Announcer”

THE F*BALL PODCAST: EPISODE 155: A CONVERSATION WITH AMY TRASK, PLUS WEEK 5 MINUTE PICKS
This week's episode features a conversation with Amy Trask, former LA/Oakland Raiders CEO and author of You Negotiate Like a Girl (Triumph Books). Topics include the Raiders, the business of the NFL and the Al Davis experience. Amy is a genius, oh and also Week 5 Minute Picks.
My thoughts on “You Negotiate Like a Girl: Reflections on a Career in the National Football League” by Amy Trask and Mike Freeman
Full disclosure: I have the book a second star because I'm a Raiders fan and I think, despite the book, Amy Trask has a unique story. Unfortunately, that didn't come across in the book. It does end with a sweet story involving Al Davis that shows just how much she adored him. But that's also what's wrong with the book. The biggest takeaway I got from it is that Trask adored Al Davis. Her adoration of Davis comes off a bit creepy at times, especially the multitude of times she considered being "motherfucked" by Davis was his way of showing appreciation and care. It should've been titled "An Ode to Al Davis." You won't go a page without an Al Davis reference (or multiple references) of some kind. I felt like I learned infinitely more about Davis and his style as an owner than I did about Trask and her career. The book's title gives the indication you'll learn about how Trask handled being the first female CEO in the male-dominated NFL, the tough situations she had to navigate in male-dominated environments and how she managed to do her job and gain respect in a male-dominated environment. You get that, but it's commonly in a scenario that involved Al Davis. Even the title had the Al Davis imprint (you'll see). Now that she's put her love of Al Davis out on the table, I hope to learn more about Amy Trask in her next book.

Photo Credit: Peter Read Miller/Sports Illustrated/Getty Images The NFL is back and I would say better than ever, but they’re already ignoring concussion protocol and bashing Colin Kaepernick while making veterans pay to be at games. Regardless of all of that, it’s that day of the week where I spotlight someone. At first, I wondered if I should keep the Olympic train going, but I decided to stop…
