Papa Johns isn't terrible, but more expensive and the crust takes up too much of the pie.

It's all about the stuffed crust.

Or, in the case of Hungry Howie's, the wonderful, cheap flavored crust that Pizza Hut stole.

Yeah... and they still don't do it right...
no cajun? Pssshhh...

Papa John's pizza has always been terrible in my opinion.
Pizza Hut has gone down the toilet...

Whereas Dominos definitely has improved over the years.
Howies... will always be my favorite... cheaper... just as tasty as any non homemade pizza can be... the crusts....

The only thing worse than Papa's terrible ingredients and terrible pizza are the terrible commercials (And Little Caesers)

Ah, the classic non-apology apology.
Nobody likes 5 star? Place is the best, got awesome garlic rolls too.
Aaaaand Papa John just got canned for declining sales caused by his comments about the NFL. I'll just leave this here...

One of his pizzas inappropriately groped me.

The stock definitely dropped after he made the comment, but it's down 33% over the year. The stock drop is what he was talking about in his comment.

Besides, they didn't say the sales were declining because of his comment. They're just looking for a scapegoat.

Got a hold of your pepperoni, did it?
It was an ugly tree anyway.
When will people learn that politics and business don’t mix?

Isn't it amazing?   I see it all the time around town- trucks with a company logo on the side and a political bumper sticker on the back.   It's just stupid.

I thought it was assumed that 99% of companies (especially small) are republican anyway, so there is really no need to advertise with a sticker.

Politics and business are one and the same these days. Just ask Ajit Pai. He's bragged on video about being "groomed" by Verizon to take over the FCC and do what they want him to.

I don't even put that stuff on my POV. I have a Libertarian bumper sticker I have thought about putting on my truck, but never do. I don't feel the need to advertise my political or religious affiliations. I never had a sticker of any kind on it until a couple of years ago I finally got a Jaguars one, and only because the make/model/year/color of my truck here is very popular and there has been more than a few times I've tried to get into the wrong one because there were several of us parked relatively close to each other. Now I just look at the rear window and I know whether it's my truck or not.

Net Neutrality whines go in the designated thread.

I heard it was a miniature sausage.
I guess they don't really have much of a variety to choose from but DAMN!!!....Pizza Hut??

As long as Papa John's keeps serving decent deluxe pizzas at a cheap price and they send me coupons, I'll keep buying. When I'm eating with company though, I have to break open the wallet and order LaRosa's. I can't stand Pizza Hut. It's too salty and the last time I ordered Domino's, the pizza was wet. It was like they dumped an entire tub of melted butter on it. I threw it out. It was disgusting.

That's OK, we still like you. Just at an arm's length.

I try to avoid that processed poison no matter what the company is. When we want authentic pizza, we go to the source of Pizza Hut.

Ironically due to being sued so many times over his logo, better ingredients, better pizza Papa johns is in fact, better than other big pizza chains as far as health. http://www.brandeating.com/2016/01/papa-...-menu.html No artificial flavors or colors. Not the hugest improvement, but Pizza Hut and Dominos can't make that claim. If your talking about little caesars, I don't think we even need to go there.

I can believe that Papa John's is only saying this to shift blame, and I can believe that they genuinely feel this way. I can't believe that someone told them what to say so they said it.

Agreed, Jerry Jones wants to sell pizza as much as any other papajohns shareholder, and I assume he likes the Cowboys being worth a lot. Wouldn't really be in his best interest to push papa John to attack the league. I imagine its fairly expensive to be the NFL's official pizza. That probably played a bigger role than anything else.
