Papa John's CEO whines about lost sales, blames NFL drama

I love watching shitbags like him make asses of themselves in public. He must have taken lessons from the DNC-Hillary Clinton School of Blaming Everyone Else For Your Problems. Too funny.

Waaaahhhhh! My dude, I don't think your sales are hurting because of the NFL. (I have a completely different set of problems with the NFL but that's for another time and place.) It's because you're a garbage human being who won't raise your prices a few cents so you can offer (shitty) health insurance to your employees. Among other things.

Crap pizza indeed!
The last time we had a Papa John's (a decade or so ago?), it was partially uncooked.
Hence the last time. Lot of other pizza options out there.
Gëzuar!!
from a reasonably stable genius.
lol
You'd think the increasing legality of cannabis would amount to increased pizza sales, so yeah blame the NFL...

It does man... but only good pizza and chinese...
and chips.
Really loving those all-dressed chips with a nice buzz recently. Tastes great on burgers... kinda like maple barbecue sauce on yer burger with a crunch.
I'm sorry, what? Papa John's? Oh they don't deliver in my neighborhood. Their loss.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
All-dressed chips?
Is there an invasion of Canadians going on?

AGCC is happening.

Nah, man picked up the habit...
after trying them on a recommendation from a Canadian friend.
Really, Really good.
My kids are constantly stealing my munchies bag.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
The ketchup ones aren't bad either.
(Had a Canadian coworker once.) Well we have Tim Horton's here in MN so if they wanna annex us they can be my guest!
This shit is bananas.
Dilled pickles ones hooked my kids
I still love all-dressed. Avoid that aisle of the grocery.

I have a feeling the next big fast food chain
is going to be called "Munchies".
Beware the bullshit factories.
There's already a brand of snacks called Munchies.
I imagine there would be copyright infringement...
This shit is bananas.

Thanks. I love Bill.
So much that I use his pic for my avatar. I was fortunate enough to see him perform in the early 1990s. Blew the roof off of the place, he was just that good. We could sure use his voice today. And Carlin.

I can never decide whether the great indictment of capitalism
is that someone so wicked can get so rich, or that someone so stupid can get so rich.

I can answer that
Those conditions are not mutually exclusive

I'll go without eating
before I ever eat a piece of that shit. I did have a bite of a PJ pizza once. It was so bad I couldn't finish the slice. Better ingredients better pizza my ass.
I woke up this morning determined to drink less, eat right, and exercise.
But that was four hours ago when I was younger and full of hope.
Facts don’t back the claims...
And the Cowboys owner may have put him up to it anyway. Read this one earlier:

I haven’t been paying that much attention to this whole distraction but nothing in that link surprises me.
Idolizing a politician is like believing the stripper really likes you.
From your linked article:
..... another description of Papa John's pizza:
If you don't have a local "Mom and Pop" pizzeria option and must do business with a national chain, I recommend Marco's. Genuinely and consistently good chow with no nasty fascist aftertaste!
"US govt/military = bad. Russian govt/military = bad. Any politician wanting power = bad. Anyone wielding power = bad." --Shahryar
"All power corrupts absolutely!" -- thanatokephaloides
Marco's is all right.
Had them a couple of times in Utah; the closest one to here is probably in the twin cities.
This shit is bananas.
No Marco's here
In a tiny spot in NY. I have had no pizza in many moons. Gallbladder.

He should blame the Democrats
for stealing his slogan.
But yeah, a crappy pizza.
It's the Russians who've influenced people
not to buy his pizza. I've never tried one but since I found out a while ago he's such a shit employer I'll pass. Good to know I'm not missing anything good. And I'm sure it was Russians who spread that about him being a lousy employer, averse to free enterprise as they are. s/

Papa John is a douche bag.
I will not eat a single item from his establishment. I won't eat dominos pizza either as they are major funders in the forced birther movement. I hope to negatively affect their revenue stream.

I didn't know that about Domino's
Good grief, there are fewer and fewer companies I can support every day.
This shit is bananas.
Yeah, Dominoes was a surprise
to me too, but I found out quite a few years ago at an office pot luck and I just won't give them my money.

I make my own.
Fuck them.
I have eaten pizza in Italy (and all over Europe) and know what it looks like and tastes like and since I am 30 miles away from pizza chains, have no delivery possibility, I can cook as close to the real deal as possible.
Let me repeat: Fuck them.
What they foist on us as pizza is NOT pizza in the first place.

Heck yeah!
We had a good local pizza joint in town but it closed, not sure how long ago.
Homemade FTW!
This shit is bananas.
Hey big pizza chains: Here's what I think.

Modern education is little more than toeing the line for the capitalist pigs.

The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?

This shit is bananas.
Those big boxes are hard to dispose
It's been raining for months and I still have not burned my tossed-down woodpile in my drystone burner.

We've a local person who owns hundreds

I don't hate a snake for being a snake.
What's the point? Everything you point out is true and there's far more than we have time to even get into. But isn't the real point that this shitheel is a billionaire because Americans have no taste and no sense.
Every single place that this absolute scum-of-the-earth has opened a store, or his training ground, Dominoes, has put a local pizza joint or three out of business. It is our collective decision to eat shit on cardboard to save two dollars, that put this waste of protoplasm in the position he enjoys.
We have been the change we hate for generations.

Thank goodness the Netherlands doesn’t allow big U.S. franchise-chain “coffeeshops.”
