Antiquated and stubborn, not poorly-run. They have systems, business models and all that in place. All of it is sound, but the product is not up to standards.

That's due to bad decisions, but not because the organization isn't competent or competently built.

McDonalds has had a POS product for a very long time, but their business model makes it run like a well-oiled machine and they make a lot of money.

That's putting out a crappy product, but it doesn't mean that the company run like idiots.

If you believe this, then you have not eaten a McDonald's in a very long time:

Fries - Best in the business
Soft Drinks and Sweet Tea - Best in the business due to expensive filtering equipment and only $1 for a large.
Quarter Pounder with Cheese - Cooked to order using fresh beef - awesome sandwich introduced in last 2 years.
Breakfast - McDonald's invented it and very high quality compared to competitors

McDonald's is successful because they evolve and listen to customers, they are the leader in changing to better ingredients, something the media will never give then credit for because it easier to be ignorant than to investigate the facts.

As far as the Bengals, they are the opposite of McDonald's, never change or intervent new ideas. They use the same old tired business model as you have suggested. MB never learned the definition of insanity, doing things the same way (unsuccessful ways) and getting better results.
