No one is forcing you to eat it

So now he'll be pimping out Jimmy John's and Walk-Ons?

It has gotta be better than the breadwiches Jimmy John's sells.

Somebody needs to tell drew to watch the ESPN doc "Broke". He's making some really dumb investments.

They'll be a national chain soon - Applebee's, TGIF's, Cafe's,and now Walk On's. Baton Rougeans will love this.

Revenues =\= to profit. I've always heard that the Burbank location essentially funds the other ones. But I admit I don't really know much of what goes on behind the curtain and that could just be a couple of folks talking down rather than the truth of the matter.

The restaurant business is risky in general. Lots of prof athletes tend to invest in them and usually lose a ton of money. I'm just saying that it's a poor investment when compared to other options.

Yeah you're always reading about all those out-of-business Jimmy John's shops.

I agree.
I'm not really sure who's is advising him, but restaurants are way down on the list.

Using an NFL player is an excellent way to help penetrate the less sophisticated, less intelligent, more blue collar market that dominates New Orleans.

Gotta love TD. What does Drew's entire portfolio look like and what other options has he not pursued?

They do have a solid Buffalo chicken sandwich.

You can't really mess up a buffalo chicken sandwich.
