Do we get more sunshine pumping this week....

This my friends was what a REAL Process looked like:
Why do you people always want to ignore what preceded the bottom with which you choose to start? In this case 5 consecutive playoff teams... including 2 SB contenders.
Look there and tell me if you see anything similar to that which the current regime started?

Well, I guess us people (me) see the 3-13 season that preceded that reboot *rebuild? (don't know what's politically correct 'round here these days) and can recall just how bad that roster was before the next FO and Coach took over...... Hell, how long do we need to go back and look at the records prior to a reboot for it to count? 1 year? (apparently not) 2, 3, 5, 10, 17< see what I did there?
To me and my average brain, any laymen should be able to see signs of progress within any sucessful rebuild of any kind...... Hell, if I was your personal trainer hired by you to get you into shape and your goal was to lose 30lbs of fat and gain 5lbs of muscle, I would assume that you would expect to see results 4 months into my Process... No?
Would you still be happy stepping on the scale and seeing it say that you GAINED 3lbs, while bench pressing less than you could before you even met me, but yet I continued to tell you how much healthier you are on the inside and you'll have a big breakthrough in the next month or two if you just stay the course?
Speaking for only myself, I see that the Browns have gained weight, and an awful lot of it, since The Process began.

I have a feeling there were next to no players from the '85-89 run on that 1994 team Tour.
The 1989 team was on fumes, they kind of backed into the playoffs after a good start to the season. Belichick pretty much rebuilt the Browns, that was part of the reason he was so disliked, he held no loyalty to players from the late 80s teams.

The Browns aren't fat, they are big-boned.
You just won the internet for today.....

Michael Scott would ask if he could share a rowboat with the Browns.

Getting a lil personal talking about my weight... aren't you? Putting the "personal" in PT?

Specific point is there was a core in those late 80's teams upon which to build... a franchise QB for starters. Bud Carson was simply not the HC to build it. And, in the end, neither was Arcosi the GM to do so. And remember.... Bernie "Diminished Skills" Kosar was the keystone in the tear down's third year.
General point was my continuing battle against this "quick turn" myth that will not die.
As for the Process... it really began this past off-season. We are nowhere near your 4-month, PT parallel... more like Week 2... we're stiff and sore and irritable as hell and wondering WTF we are paying someone to do this to us.
BTW I lost 5 pounds trooping around London and France for two weeks... but my weight redistribution was much more impressive. Guess that's what averaging over 7 miles a day while eating french cooking (and baking) will do to even an old fart like me.

Fair enough with your opinion of where we are in The Process....... (even if it's wrong)

Awesome news regarding your weight as that is not easy to do when on vacation - very impressive! Now, can you sustain that, as that's what The Process is all about right, sustainability?

Likely and agree...
'89 was the year we realized Marty's playoff issues might not have been so bad after all (and '90 confirmed it), but '94 is not the fair comparison as it was near the end of Bill's process. Let's look at his beginning.

And wrong it nay yet turn out to be... but it needs a real chance.
As for the weight... issue will be there I had a reason to walk... it's part of the general life style and moreso when you visit to see stuff. Here? If I walk, more than the weekly shopping trip, then it's to walk... a/k/a boring as hell.

^ and that sir is the secret that most people can't find...... If you can find something that you love and is truly fun to do, then it's never exercise - much like that phrase that I unfortunately never found: "If you do something you love, you'll never work a day in your life"..... That's way easier said than done I know.
For me, I'm lucky enough to absolutely love Mountain Biking and it just so happens to be probably one of the most demanding forms of exercise that I have ever done in my life. Hopefully I'll be able to do it well past my 50th on Saturday...... < Still can't believe I just typed that, as I'm still 25 in my mind.

That is why prison rape has been changed to the slang term “the process”.
“I just Browns’d up and went to the showers when Jerome was in there. Nearly got out through ‘The Process’ “.
Holy Hell dude!! I literally snorted on that one.

Yeah...our defense is ranked higher than the Rams....so the Browns defense is better than the Rams defense. Only in the bizarro world of the sunshine and rainbows of 0-9, 1-24, and a HC who is 2-30 in his last 32 games. These guys are fucking awesome.
Yeah...our defense is ranked higher than the Rams....so the Browns defense is better than the Rams defense.
in some categories yes our defense is better than the rams. They also benefit from an offense that can control the ball etc, etc. There's many variables. I'm very sure they have positions where they're more talented and we have positions where we're more talented. I'm not going to outright say we have a better defense than theirs because I haven't watched them play. But I do know they have one of the best offense's in football. #3 overall. 5th in rushing and 6th in passing I believe. In any case, top 3 offense. That's why they're 7-2. And good for them. Come playoff time, that defense will have to likely step it up and if they do that could be an NFC championship team. Nobody's beating the Patriots tho so it doesn't matter. But please, could you please look sht up before you type stuff out? Would it have killed you to say "you know maybe I should look where the Rams offense is before I make baseless random statements."

I started Brazilian jiu jitsu when I was too young to appreciate it. I started back up in my 30s and have stuck with it. You are correct. Finding that physical activity that you actually enjoy is super important. I don’t mind lifting weights but I wouldn’t call it fun. And running has never given me a ‘high’.
