Papa John Schnatter is most closely associated with the University of Louisville, but he also had an economic center at Purdue University named after him back in April of this year, when his John H. Schnatter Family Foundation reportedly pledged $8 million towards the school’s effort “to beef up hiring at the center…

It hasn’t yet been a month since Papa John Schnatter was discarded from his own company for the sins of saying the N-word on a conference call, allegedly acting like a creep to employees, and just generally mismanaging the hell out of his pizza business. But the disgraced Papa won’t go quickly or quietly. Like an…

Papa “John” Schnatter will not take his ousting from his own company without a fight. Today the disgraced pizza hawker filed a complaint to see the Papa John’s books and records, so he could determine what led up to his resignation as chairman.

The Papa John’s board of directors announced late last night that they would be adopting something that’s known in the business industry as a “limited duration stockholder rights plan.” This is an attempt to prevent Papa “John” Schnatter from reasserting his control over his eponymous company, which has done almost…

Forbes just published a deep investigation into John Schnatter’s Papa John’s Pizza empire, and it reaches some expected conclusions. Based on conversations with 37 current and former Papa John’s employees, Forbes paints a picture of a mismanaged business being led by an increasingly petty and vindictive Schnatter, who…

How was your Wednesday? It was likely better than that of Papa John’s Pizza founder John Schnatter, who resigned from just about every position he still held after it emerged that he used the n-word during a [checks notes] sensitivity training session.

The NFL’s stupid pizza wars have, at last, come to their natural conclusion.

Former Louisville head coach Rick Pitino is a busy man and, almost assuredly, a messy gentleman. While he may find himself jobless and ostracized for the time being, his schedule is booked full thanks to two separate lawsuits, both filed for spectacular reasons, and, now, a very public spat with Louisville board of…

Here at Deadspin we’re not entirely opposed to making fervent valuations based exclusively on personal bias; but after releasing a highly contested ranking of pizza chains, we wanted to check our work. Five hungry and very stupid staffers, who failed to fully appreciate the gravity of what they committed themselves…

Earlier this week the Papa John’s Twitter account, which apparently thinks it is a real person, bravely denounced Nazis who might enjoy its product and apologized for dipping their garlicky, ranchy toes into the middle of an NFL civil war. And while I love it when a brand publicly steps on its own nutsack, I believe…

If you were, for some reason, left hungering for more after the latest installment of the NFL’s unbelievably dumb pizza drama—remember Papa John claiming that revenue was down due to football players protesting during the national anthem, followed by speculation that he’d been put up to it by none other than Jerry…

How was your Valentine’s Day? I masturbated then watched the dog show, though at least 30 minutes apart so as not to make it weird. But some people believe in romance.
