Board Tactician Prints

Man mourns the loss of his king after being checkmated.

"Can I savor this for a few moments? The ball's never been in my court before!"

The president's men

'Looks like your cash cow just got diverted to the slaughterhouse.'

Alternative fielding positions

"It's Swamp & Swallow - they're making an offer we can't refuse!"

'Uh - oh... this looks like an unfriendly takeover!'

Takeovers.

"That's Hicks from the corporate office. He's adorable, but trust me—when it comes to acquisitions, he's an animal!"

'My last comment appeared to be inviting feedback. Do not be fooled.'

Genius

'Competition is good...unless it's too good.'

"Huddleston, I admire your hands-on approach to everything, but get the hell out of my office!"

So what happens when you told Armstrong you wouldn't recite that Sinclair Broadcasting script? Oh, nothing. Sinclair sued me for everything I own, that's all. But the joke's on them: I've set up different LLC's for every aspect of my life. So all they could get were the assets of the LLC that they paid. This opens up a whole world of possibilities.
