The Province’s Ed Willes reported that in 2017 Woodall and Keith presented Braley with an offer in the $14 million range that was rejected. In the Woodall-Keith plan, 100 shares would have been sold at $200,000 a piece — raising $20 million. $8 to $10 million of that was supposed to go toward buying the Lions from Braley. The remaining $10 to $12 million was to be invested into the team’s operation.
Wife:
On one such occasion, David was in the midst of a conversation with Lions receiver Marco in the back yard when he realize that things weren’t quite to his liking.
He asked him to walk and talk with him.
They made their way through the house,
cutting past several members of the catering crew hired to help feed the Lions’ travelling party of 60 people. They wound up in the kitchen, where he rummaged around before finding four serving spoons.
