I’m not defending the show but what more was there to “explore?” As I noted above we systematically watched everyone close to Dany - those who tried to suppress her violent tendencies - fall by the wayside, one by one. I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of why she “turned” and didn’t need further explanation. I believe if Jon had acquiesced to a romantic relationship that was the only chance to avoid what happened.

Loved these things. Killed one with three buddies in the parking lot before the Bills’ home opener in 1990 and one of the guys slept through the entire game. Good times...

Dany’s plan all along was to take the throne “by whatever means necessary.” Despite an occasionally kind heart she always showed a disposition towards violence and the worst kept secret in Westeros was that she would torch the place after everyone closest to her had either been killed (Jorah, Missandei), misled her (Varys, Tyrion), or rejected her (Jon). The only “ally” she had left was Grey Worm, equally disposed towards violence and (now) vengeance.

You forgot “and TV.”

RIP Pancho. Viva Los Bills forever!

I’ll always remember that hard snap count to draw the Jets Offside in Rex’s Super Bowl...aww, no I won’t. Happy trails, EJ. You’re a good dude, just not a very good NFL QB.

Maybe he’s just getting ready to eat a W...

Quindarius Thagard at DL sounds miscast.

These predictions aren’t “bold” — they’re dumb.

It’s a damn shame this thread didn’t start with “hear me out.”

A superbly hot take as usual...

Yup. Josh got a 1/2 year of training and now they have Dorsey. Good luck in retirement DA.

Nobody runs a 2-and-a-half yard out like Lee Smith.

What did you have built before Peterman was cut?

There's another board?

Mine came yesterday. Playing the 480-yard Par 5 18th at a local course I hit a nice drive down the right side of the fairway that left me about 210 yards from the flag. You could only see the top half of the flagstick because of the elevation change on the hole, but I hit my 2-hybrid and it looked pretty good. As our foursome drove up to the green we only saw three balls...figured mine must have gone over. One of my companions said "check the hole" and I scoffed. Then came the most amazing feeling I've ever had on a golf course, as I walked up and peeked into the hole to see my ball. A double eagle 2! The rarest of birds. Sorry for the LAMP but I'm still giddy. The odds of making a double eagle are roughly 1M-to-one, compared with the roughly 13,000-to-one odds of making a hole-in-one.

Nah, that's the old days of "workhorse" RBs who got 25-30 carries and would say they don't "warm up" until they've been hit a few times. Lots of teams use RBBC, including very successful ones (the Pats*** say hello). Shady was going to be a <20 carry back no matter how you slice it. If the Bills run the ball 30-35 times a game there are plenty of carries to go around to Shady/Gore/Singletary.

I'll keep saying it. Jon's already dead. Can't see this game ending with him on the Iron Throne.

Fantastic!

I think the saying at OBD is actually "respect the process" -- so trust the process can go. I don't like McBeane either.

I think yards per completion is a better gauge of "going for the big play" -- of course the yards per attempt will drop with more incompletions. Josh was tied for 6th in the league in yards per completion last year at 12.3 -- here's the link.

Make sure you tenderize him first.

Agreed. The guy played here two years, but we've got fans "pulling for him" and "hoping he gets another shot." it's comical. The guy has been a douchenozzle for pretty much his entire adult life.

I'm answering sincerely. Perhaps because his mentality as a QB has always been to go for the big play, and he has only recently received good coaching about what being a QB means? He also hasn't been playing the position all his life like some of these guys.

Or, he's an uber-rich a-hole who knows how to limit his tax liability. Probably somewhere in the middle.
