My vote goes to the blackberry folks. Had the world by the balls and screwed the pooch terribly.

A close 2nd has to be AT&T

Another company that had it all and didn't know what to do with it.

I still have a blackberry...

as long as you don't have a snapchat, instagram, or watch a ton of videos on your phone it gets the job done.

AOL, Yahoo, GM in the 1980's, Myspace, Worldcom, TWA, Sony, Nortel

All screwed the pooch strategically.

Papa Murphys pizza

Let's sell lazy and fat people lazy and fat food that they have to go home and cook.

I'm going to open a barber shop where you can pay me to come cut your own hair.
