Pizza is standard chain fare.

Roger Goodell has a long reach.
Might explain why the NFL extended the $40 million/year contract for this clown in spite of his destruction.

Agree. Papa John’s pizza used to be good. Quite tasty.
But - like other pizza chains - they have had to cut prices. And so quantity and quality were the first items cut.

lolol. My son brings that stuff home sometimes. What he don’t eat gets thrown away. I sure won’t eat it. Store bought frozen pizzas are better than that.

Politics and Business is a scorched earth game. No one remains unscathed unless they choose not to play. Just because you don't have an interest in playing doesn't mean you are free from being played.

I wouldn’t say the pizza is “damn” good. However, I would say, it hits the spot and at a good price.

“Its pizza for teens, like Little Seizures.”

If I didn’t know better I would think they were made in China!

I was thinking that advertisers and sponsors aren't going to want to have anything to do with NFL.
Companies are in the business of selling their products or services. They don't want to put up with this nonsense.
To: Responsibility2nd
yes. i only wish everyone who did this got his treatment.
