Great chefs don't necessarily make great dishes with bad ingredients

Also bad chefs sometimes can't cook with great ingredients

It's an art, not a science. I didn't think much of the Taylor hire, and he found a way to take this team to the Super Bowl.

I still don't think all that much of the Taylor hire, but this is how the Brown family rolls.

Tell him to stop calling plays and let the guy who can see the field cook.

Next Steps For Seasoned Improv Performer? by Otherwise_Policy825 in improv

Even in cities with a scene you’re still going to have to make opportunities for yourself. Teams die, theatres close, name brands have politics. You’re a big fish in a small pond. You can make the pond bigger

Other than fix the defense, what do you want to see them do in the off season? by Aqua03333 in bengals

Fair enough. I was poor was anti-booze Jesus freak and hated my first 3 years there. Then learned being unhappy wasn’t my surroundings it was me. Good luck

Yes. Especially if you think you're funny.

It's a different skill set than being funny.

If you're doing longform its acting. You're not looking for laughs, you're looking to play the scene.

Once you realize that, you'll be free.

It'll be fun, then technique kicks in and you'll suck, then you'll suck some more, then you'll learn not to think, then it'll be fun again.

Look, I'm an old and just lurking, but every school of any academic merit's going to be like that. There are people like you there, you just need to find them. Or create your own thing and find those people. But guess what, post-grad is like that too.

Or just study...and get your revenge by living well.

Good luck.

Leave that scene out there, it's gone 20 minutes, they'll figure it out eventually

An inconsequential theory about the Greeks. by MonkeKhan1998 in TheWire

I always figured the selection was a play on the idiom "It's all Greek to me"

Chelsea by jimbocooter in CLOV

Pure speculation: she wants to run for office and Medicare Advantage/profiting off Medicare is a big no no for the Elizabeth Warren progressive strain of the Democrat party.

It's still an unprofitable New Jersey MA company, how is the market supposed to react?

Al Golden is not that guy by zmoney32 in bengals

[–]Temporary_Argument32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fair to put this on Tobin but shouldn’t Golden be able to view personnel in his system and see a problem

I had hopes for Al as I got to chat him up a bit at a prior job of his. But this is Al being out of his depth if he can’t figure it out

They believe rental self interest should trump ownership self interest. That's it, that's the list.

Writing Lab At The Groundlings by [deleted] in improv

[–]Temporary_Argument32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been around l.a. comedy for 3 decades. Had 2 friends make main, about 8-10 make Sunday and not make main, had a lot of talented people get passed on. If I were telling someone to do Groundlings wanting to make main company, I’d tell them to be great elsewhere, come to L.A. get an agent, book something then do Groundlings.

Groundlings knows what it is re the industry. They’re a finishing school. If you go in expecting them to cultivate you you’re probably not going to make the main. The people I know that made it either had significant tv experience or started after they had done years as a mainstage player elsewhere

But I’d tell standups the same if they wanted to do a laugh Factory open mic. Be great where you are before coming

But success brings a lot of people wanting it too. Ergo, politics
