Bigoted, anti-ACA pizza owner CEO John Schnatter's profits tumbling. Getting DU'ed

Stock tumbles 5%.


San Francisco 49ers safety Eric Reid was one of the first NFL players to join Colin Kaepernick in protesting police brutality by kneeling during the playing of the national anthem. He is thus a known enemy of pizza.

What happened to personal responsibility

If the NFL is the secret to his success maybe they should get a cut of his business

. . .that he's the type to rail about the greatness of the free market and the need to eliminate regulations, too.

Now, the free market bites him and he's boo-hooing.

Not smart. Just lucky.

That's about it though. It takes a lot of luck to to get rich selling pizzas. Like i said, he's lucky, not smart.

Yeah, knows how to sell, but big deal. Very late in his career, my dad sold cars. He was quite successful at it, but it would have taken incredible luck to have turned a sales job into a national chain of dealerships. He did ok, but didn't get lucky. Pretty much all PJ has going for him.

I haven't had one (by purchase) in a decade. I had a piece a few months ago at an event I was at since it was the only food. Took two bites and tossed into the trash. Blech.

But rather that his business didn't experience growth at the rate that this greedy shitstain thinks he deserves.

Fuck him and his consistently disappointing pizza. Hell, fuck him with his consistently disappointing pizza.
