Dale Jr Reportedly Offered DEI Control

Quote:
AVONDALE, Ariz. -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. has been offered ownership in the company his father built, the president of global operations at Dale Earnhardt Inc. said on Thursday.

A source close to the negotiations said the offer is 51 percent.


"I'm not going to discuss percentages,'' said Max Siegel, the chief negotiator for DEI.


But Siegel said he has worked hard to address everything that Earnhardt Jr. and his sister, Kelley Earnhardt Elledge, have asked for to re-sign NASCAR's most popular driver.


That includes putting both on a board of directors through which all major decisions will be resolved.

if he gets control he better hire people to run it right

it's damn near a joke this year

Not so fast, my friend. Junior's denying it.

Reports of DEI-Earnhardt deal premature - NASCAR - Yahoo! Sports
AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. said Thursday an online report that he has been offered ownership in Dale Earnhardt Inc. is ``news to me.''

After qualifying for Saturday's NASCAR Nextel Cup race at Phoenix International Raceway, Earnhardt was asked about the report that he has been offered 51 percent ownership of the company started by his late father.

``I don't know anything about that,'' Junior said, raising his eyebrows. ``As far as I know, there's been nothing new in the last week or more.''

They would be smart to give it to him. Will there even be a DEI with no Jr.
