Post draft thoughts. Media & Strategy ~

Hey all!

 

Got 2nd job recently delivering pizzas here in Raleigh.  i figured im sitting at home playing Call of Duty I might as well make some $.

 

Anwyay I get to listen to a LOT more sports talk on the radio.  On the surface this is a good thing.  Last night was hell.

 

So ESPN is rocking their boxing special ALL day...so I got the pain of listening to Stephen A for the 2 seconds it took for me to change it...it doesnt take 2 seconds for Stephen A to play a race card though so that was horrible.  Not sure if he or Bomani is faster at playing race cards...lthey should compete.

 

So ESPN was out.  Sirius NFL...the draft!  All day coverage???  sweet!  

 

Not so much.

 

The announcers spend 1/2 the time telling us who they are and the other 1/2 interviewing people that said the same inane crap.

 

"Blessed for this opportunity"

"Really thankful for being here"

 

blah blah blah.

 

Heres a thought.  How about telling us about the last 5 picks that just went down and about them???

 

Even on television....Bucs Bucs Bucs.

 

Not one person with the balls to say that maye Collins had someone kill his ex-girfriend....<enter flashback>

 

 

My second point/vent:

Strategy.  So...I wont say this was a mediocre draft...but it didnt seem like there were ANY 'wow' players....time will tell.  I know I am just a pizza guy now and not a GM...but seems like we would be better served at getting picks NEXT year then settling this year.  Just my .02.  Make a deal with a team you know will suck ass next year and you move up the boards....

 

thx- tip your delivery guy-

Anyway I get to listen to a LOT more sports talk on the radio.  On the surface this is a good thing.

 

I might question you on that point.

 

But since I'm here, can I get a thick crust pepperoni and sausage with extra cheese?

You wouldnt have to question much.  i find 80's on 8 more than anything else sadly.  Tip?  try Feta on pizza...amazing.

Did they settle, or are they giving each other high fives because they liked who they got? Only time will tell whether there's some Wow there or not.

For who? We can't tip if we don't know who to call.

That's an intriguing idea.  I may just do that.

 

(dammit, now I'm hungry)

I'd rather have Digornio.

Disagree, dude.  Frozen pizza generally tastes like cardboard (DiGiorno included)

Good pizza can't be delivered.

Do you cook it straight on the rack (extremely important), and/or add your own ingredients?

Good pizza can't be delivered.

Never thought about it, but that's probably Tue to an extent. I would probably replace "good" with "excellent".

I hand it to my girlfriend.  I prefer Chef Boyardee to frozen, though.

 

Had a college roommate who put one straight into the oven, plastic wrap and all

 

(he's now a father of four; thankfully he married a good cook)

They had the new sauce for a little while but recently changed it back to the old one, that sh*t pisses me off since that new sauce was damn good. Still the best frozen pizza there is, and better than any delivery.

What else would you do? Pizza stone?

[PandaPancake]

What else would you do? Pizza stone?

Pizza stone is very versatile. What if I'm grilling and want a pizza?

[Mr. Scot]

Grilled pizza?

 

Is that really possible?
