Rednecks built America
Those naggers are giving America trouble by kneeling during the Anthem?
No...it was totally ridiculous.
Like large pepperoni. Ok, 30 something kiss my @ss.
“I do. Say it all the time. Like it. Fun word to say.”
You must be an aspiring rapper.
Well said! Grown-ups are conditioned to be terrified of a WORD!
I’m getting so sick of hearing of stuff like this. So he used, so what! The man needs to grow a spine and not let the politically correct police force him out.

Geez. Enough with the dreaded n word. Blacks use it every day. Sticks and stones, people. Grow up already.
Some blacks do all the time.
Maybe his replacement can give us a pizza that does not taste like jalapino pepper
He should have resigned last year when his gross stupidity on the NFL situation managed to irritate both the right and left. While that takes talent, it’s not a talent you want in your CEO.
Rednecks are much more rare in middle Tenn now
Supplanted by traish
They won’t put in context.
He could have said “No black olives” and they took that be racis.
Everything is rasis to the perpetually offended.
Nope, I hate rap. I like metal.
He didn’t.
Your watching a man have his life’s work ripped away from him for something taken out of context, and used against him intentionally.
He didn’t resign the board voluntarily. You can bet your life on that.
The usual activist groups threatened to boycott.
In older, more reasonable days one could confess to a wrong without having to bow and scrape backwards.
It’s largely a Christendom problem, as I (maybe correctly, maybe mistakenly) see it. I’d like to opine that if Christendom had managed to peg Ephesians 6:9 as the verse that makes chattel slavery as we know it unsuited to a Christianized society (”givng up threatening” which leaves voluntary allegiance as the only thing that should be keeping a servant) and to say “We have sinned” — we might have a different client today. Because when one confesses sin and is forgiven, the glory goes to God. But the grudge dragged on, and eventually secular liberalism was credited with the final removal of undignified treatment of black people. But secular liberalism was the gift that kept on giving, and it gave us abortion and gay marriage and now gives us the worst screeching at Donald Trump we have ever heard. There shouldn’t have even BEEN an occasion for a Rosa Parks incident. I confess, socialists were perceptive there for their opportunity.
But anyhow that’s all 20-20 hindsight now. The only thing that will save the modern scene is a resurgence of faith that repudiates at least certain old ideas in the name of bible wisdom. The obvious evils, yes, but also there are more mea culpas to be made, to God in the hearing of man as a witness.
I call BS on that one.
Here are the menu prices for Papa Johns. Show me where a pizza cost $30. Even the extra large size with all the toppings (The Works) is $19.
If you want expensive pizza, go to Frank Pepe's and order their white clam. A large white clam pizza will run about $25-27 But it's really, really good and I splurge there once in a while.
And I’d like to posit an observation that “giving up threatening” is an awfully hard thing to do in general. In a society where both the conservative and liberal elements prize the idea of making perceived needful things happen at gunpoint (though under different circumstances to different ends) we’ve forgotten the capacity of Holy Spirit to persuade in different manners. Was it mere high minded puffery that warned even Old Testament Hebrews not to “trust” the “arm of flesh”? If we want to recapture a Christian mindset, we have to think about the place and nature of peace as well as war.
The Carter malaise didn’t completely go away; it just took a siesta. When a redneck has nothing more useful to get his neck red for the sake of, he decays into has-been trash. In the meantime, millions of Chinese are soot-necks.
