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

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.

Blackberry is certainly up there. But AT&T? Whats your criteria for "dumb"?

Xerox - they developed the mouse and the graphical user interface. Basically, they could have been Apple AND Microsoft rolled into one and completely dominated the computer revolution, but they didn't realize/couldn't capitalize on what they had and now they're a copy machine company in an increasingly paperless world.
AOL - everyone used them to get online in the dial-up era and they either didn't foresee broadband or didn't do anything to re-position themselves or use their money to develop new technology and now they're merged with Time Warner which is viewed as one of the worst most worthless acquisitions ever because they contribute nothing to the modern world.
Research In Motion (Blackberry) - had the smartphone market on LOCKDOWN and a decade later they barley exist

Blockbuster.
They had a chance to purchase Netflix for practically nothing somewhere around 25-50 million. Now there is no blockbuster and only Netflix.
