Papa Johns = Twofaced

I mentioned a few posts ago that Papa Johns would probably regret fashioning a bunch on 'crybaby 23' shirts for game 6 of the Cavs Wizards series, and as predicted, Papa John is now feeling sorry for his actions.
"Papa John's Pizza issued an apology to Cleveland and the Cavaliers for making T-shirts with LeBron James' number and the word "crybaby" under it.

To apologize, Papa John's will sell Cleveland residents a large, one-topping pizza for 23 cents on Thursday. The 23 is an homage to James' jersey number. The company also will donate $10,000 to the Cavaliers Youth Fund."

Unfortunately for Papa John and his pizza franchise, negative publicity travels much faster than post-facto PR stunts, especially in the internet age. A brief search on 'the face' brings up such groups as "LeBron is a crybaby??? Screw you Papa Johns" and "Cavs fans that will never eat Papa Johns again" all which already have hundreds of members and are growing. Withleather.com puts the whole situation in a positive perspective in its usual comical fashion, but it looks like the young Cleveland college kids that usually live off of pizza aren't too happy.


And now for something completely different, Go Irish!
