Papa's got a brand new gripe

Ain't it just like Papa to blame Mama for everything?  If Mama’s not around, then Papa needs a brand new scapegoat:  Roger Goodell.

Because NFL Commissioner Goodell didn’t hammer away at players’ rights to protest, “Papa John’s founder John Schnatter” is hammering away at him.  Schnatter is blaming Goodell for the recent drop in company profits.

Papa John’s is an NFL sponsor.  Schnatter theorizes that sales are down because anti-Goodell folks are shunning NFL games.  Fewer people will be exposed to Papa John’s commercials, and fewer will be munching on game-time pizzas.

The logic seems impeccable.  However, Schnatter might better check his basic premises before coming to such saucy conclusions.
