I'd guess damn near anyone in Louisville could support it being named after Impellizzeri's.

I'd be more worried about having one of the worst o-lines in the country and not having Lamar Jackson there to cover for it anymore.

And having to play Alabama in week one.

Might be a 10+ sack game for the tide.

I've lived in Georgia my entire life, and we're not exactly known for great pizza, but the best pizza I have ever had is the Philly cheese steak pizza from Dominos.

I'm confused...didn't he use the word out of context? Like saying it was a word that shouldn't be said?
Something like that. This is just another "what can I be offended by today" stunt. Brought to you by the creators of the college safe space and comfort teddy bears.

I hear they're changing the name of OSUs stadium to Barack Obama Coliseum . So it's all good

So.... what exactly was the context in which he used the term in question?

He was having some kind of conversation about speaking to or about customers and said something along the lines of "Colonel Sanders called black people ******'s and he's still on the logo".

The call was arranged between Papa John’s executives and marketing agency Laundry Service. It was designed as a role-playing exercise for Schnatter in an effort to prevent future public-relations snafus. Schnatter caused an uproar in November 2017 when he waded into the debate over national anthem protests in the NFL and partly blamed the league for slowing sales at Papa John’s.

On the May call, Schnatter was asked how he would distance himself from racist groups online. He responded by downplaying the significance of his NFL statement. “Colonel Sanders called blacks n-----s,” Schnatter said, before complaining that Sanders never faced public backlash.

Schnatter also reflected on his early life in Indiana, where, he said, people used to drag African-Americans from trucks until they died. He apparently intended for the remarks to convey his antipathy to racism, but multiple individuals on the call found them to be offensive, a source familiar with the matter said. After learning about the incident, Laundry Service owner Casey Wasserman moved to terminate the company’s contract with Papa John’s.

Chicago style isn’t pizza

Stuffed pizza is so much better than NY style that they definitely shouldn't be called the same thing.

Actually, I love all kinds of pizza, but stuffed is my favorite if it's done right.
And, anybody who thinks pan pizza is Chicago style deserves to eat Pizza Hut for the rest of their life.
