That’s would be defending what he said. Perhaps you should look in the mirror and decide whether you are OK with comments like these. There's a huge difference between using a word in a derogatory manner and making reference to someone else saying it. There's nothing offensive about saying "It's inappropriate to call someone a inward." If you happen to be offended by that you might be a moron.

I would NOT have guessed that. A girl named Nina lived near us and her dad had a Shakey’s as I recall. Went there once (maybe on Niagara Falls Blvd?), and then would beg my parents to take me back. Movies, and maybe free popcorn, which seems counter-intuitive when you are in the business of selling food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 3-4 mom and pop pizzerias within a 20 minute drive that all make a very superior pizza to anything mass produced. Hell I made one the other night at the house with store bought pizza dough and ingredients that is preferable to any chain pizza. If you are eating chain anything you are doing it wrong and need to be slapped silly until you start thinking clearly again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 John Schnatter: Papa John’s doesn’t want to do business with Roger Goodell Papa John’s founder John Schnatter continues to search for a good spot to dig, despite being at rock bottom. He may have found one. In Friday’s radio interview with Terry Meiners of 840 WHAS, Schnatter shrugged at the replacement of Papa John’s with Pizza Hut as the official pizza of the NFL, and then pounced on pro football’s Commissioner. “We are very glad to get out of the NFL relationship, because we still get to sponsor some players and we still get to sponsor some teams and we still get to be part of the community,” Schnatter said. “But we don’t want to do business with Roger Goodell, period. And I don’t want to do business with Roger Goodell, and we’ve had enough success where we get to pick who we do business with. And Roger Goodell runs the NFL, and we made a decision to get a divorce, and we did.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I dumped you, I didnt even love you and would never get back together with you. I dont need you anyway, you needed me!" Blaming falling business on the NFL because players kneeled during the anthem. And now you say you never want to do business with Goodell again and are glad that the deal was canceled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's post's in this thread that seem unsure why black people can say it, and white people cannot. As for punishment, John Shattner's life isn't ruined so I'm not sure I get your point. He was pressured to resign because he was harming his companies business. Josh Allen got drafted 7th overall. Life definitely not ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Apparently he didn't want to work with/use Kanye as a spokesman "because he uses the N word." The board kept pressing him and he actuall said the N word, but not as an epithet. Sounds like they just wanted to use any reason to replace him.
