The sad thing about all of this is the fact that the players are going to fold because the team owners are goin to fuck with salaries due to sponsors like Pappa Johns saying it's hurting their bottom line.

The owners can afford to take a hit or even a strike due to the NFL or any sports team usually being just their hobby while for the players this is their livelihood.

I hope a lot of these guys stay strong and keep protesting for the cause and have their money straight because this can and most likely will get a lot worse for them in the very near future.
 
I haven't ate Papa John's pizza since 99' when my sister used to bring free pizzas home from work. We used to eat so much of it that it became wack af.

Dude is the exactly reason I've never eaten Papa Johns.. Soon as I pass by his shit, I think about his stance about giving his employees insurance and other shit he's said.. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.. I know plenty of people who don't give him any business strictly becuz of him

Papa John Loses Dough: Pizza Chain Founder Loses $70 Million In Hours

Papa John is having a bad day.

The net worth of John Schnatter, founder and CEO of pizza chain Papa John’s, fell $70 million in less than 24 hours after the company released its third-quarter financial report on Tuesday afternoon. The business beat estimates on earnings and revenue, but it lowered guidance on same-store sales for the coming period.


Investors were not pleased with that news and sent shares down 11% through 12:30 pm Eastern Time on Wednesday. The stock is now trading at just over $60 per share.

One casualty of the slide was Schnatter’s personal fortune. The 55-year-old—who owns roughly 25% of Papa John’s—is now worth $801 million, Forbes estimates.

Some think Jerry Jones was behind the Papa John’s rant

On Wednesday, the CEO of Papa John’s blamed a decline in earnings on a decline in NFL ratings, which he in turn blamed on the lingering anthem controversy. In response, some blame Cowboys CEO Jerry Jones for putting Papa John up to it.

Jones has become a significant Papa John’s franchise owner, with the total number of stores owned by Jones in excess of 100 as of 2014.

The relationship started in 2004, when Papa John’s became the official pizza of the Cowboys, and in turn Jones acquired 49-percent interest in 71 Papa John’s stores. Eight years later, Jones appeared in a Papa John’s commercial
, where he rapped through the whole thing.

More recently, Jones has been doing a different kind of rapping as he tries to derail the Commissioner’s contract extension, which the Compensation Committee already has been authorized, by a 32-0 vote back in May, to execute. The suspicion in some league circles is that Jones, who has reason to be even more upset with Commissioner Roger Goodell now that running back Ezekiel Elliott‘s suspension is back on, instigated Papa John’s CEO John Schnatter to use Wednesday’s quarterly earnings conference call to dump on the NFL, and to call out NFL leadership for failing to solve the anthem issue before it became a full-blown problem.

For that reason, look for the league office to take Schnatter’s complaints with a grain of salt. (I could have made a pizza ingredient pun there but that would have been too cheesy.) However, the league office should take seriously the fact that Jones continues to look for new and creative ways to push his agenda, which could be to push out Goodell — either by mustering 23 other votes to block his extension or by driving such a hard bargain as to the remaining terms that Goodell decides he doesn’t want it.
