DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Tailgate Forum My Browns fan making pizzas anology

This if going to be a bit off the wall but here goes.

I don't post a lot but read a lot of posts here. I consider myself a patient man, however I am very frustrated with the Brown's lack of post-season and even moderate success since their return.

Saying that I can't understand the knee jerk reaction to many posters lack of patience with drafted players immediate success, same with GMs, coaching staffs & team owners.

I thought about it a while and related to making frozen pizzas in the oven. You take out the pizza , preheat the oven and place the pizza in the oven. After about 5 minutes you look in and get irritated because it is not done yet. You tell yourself you will go another 5 minutes.

Now 10 minutes has gone by and still not done. So logically you throw that pizza away and put in another. This time you give it 10 minutes, more than twice the beginning time you gave the first one. You open the oven and this one is not done either.

You repeat this process several more times with the same result. After pizza number 6 you immediately think this whole process is screwed. You scream "I have been making pizzas for an hour and still don't have one done".

So you stop and after hours of thinking and evaluating your process and even calling other pizza making friends, and checking on the pizza making message boards the answer comes to you like a thunderbolt.


You rush to your car, drive to the store and excitedly buy a NEW OVEN. Now you are convinced the problem is solved.

Good analogy.


I like my pizza with mushrooms and sausage

Gotta totally disagree....

There is NO WAY we would ever pre-heat the oven.

If only we could just order one already made..

Why can't you just follow the instructions on the pizza wrapper?

I just couldn't help laughing when I read this [not at you but just how I think] ...you do this process like you said then finally realized it was even easier than than waiting.. you had been buying the wrong pizza from the get go! You really wanted pepperoni and you kept buying veggie, when you really were expecting pepperoni as the final product... DOH!

Just kidding - nice analogy!

Wrong. Replacing the stove won't help. We have to change our electric company provider. That'll fix it.

And right after that we'll buy a gas stove, and realize we don't have a connection.

Mmmm Pizza

With peppers and extra cheese. Yum.

I just hope that Shaw is better at hand tossing than Hoyer our Manziel.

When in the world did Hoyer hand toss our Manziel? Is that even legal?

Danged auto correct on this phone. OR not our.

It was just a really funny image ...... Hoyer tossing Johnny around the football field. No wonder Hoyer has a sore arm/shoulder.

I simply don't buy that YTown. If throwing JFF around makes your arm hurt, you obviously do not have the arm strength needed to be an NFL QB.

cut it into 6 pieces , I cant eat 8

If you cut it into 6, then you're not really giving anyone a chance to succeed, are you?

What pizzas are you making in the oven that the instructions say to heat for 5 minutes?
