I'm surprised how little play Jorah's death is receiving. He was a major character completely devoted to Dany. Along with Theon, we saw two of the biggest redemption stories of the entire series meet their ends in heroic ways. But "not enough major characters died." Umm, ok.

I've had a couple of people reach out. Fingers crossed.

@Logic yeah, agreeing to disagree is cool. No emotional attachment to losing Jorah? Or Beric? I mean, Jorah has been around since the beginning. I'm just not as tied to the "mystery" of the NK. He was created by the children to kill men, and it got out of hand. He wasn't a complex character, which is why I wasn't left wanting for more of an explanation. He was a human killing machine.

@Logic yeah, man, I just have to disagree with almost all of that. You really want more "development" of a character who doesn't speak? We learned of his origin and his quest for the ultimate revenge. As for ending the NK and WW with three episodes to go -- the battle for Westeros (Iron Throne) has been every bit as large a part of the story as the battle against the WW. Probably more so -- it's just that they had to address the WW before they can get to that. If seeing Theon redeem himself and Arya kill the NK wasn't enough of a "payoff" for you that's really too bad.

Of everything you've written about last night's episode, finally something I can agree with. Yeah, I agree with this. It was an extremely tense episode.

Yeah, kind of sucks for Sam that his family sword saved his father's and brother's murderer.

Yeah, but I guess my point is whether the "long" winters were because of the NK and his army. I mean, why would any particular season last "years?"

So with the NK destroyed does that mean winter ends?

Metcalf dropped like a rock. I'll trust the Bills' (and 30 other teams') staffs on this one. And Singletary is hardly slow. I don't think you're giving enough consideration to a few things: 1 -- Josh Allen Year 2. No learning curve, and was starting to "click" at the end of the year. Great players elevate those around them. 2 -- OL rebuild. We are talking about a completely new line. 3 -- Veteran WRs and RBs. I get it, a lot of folks want the "true #1" receiver. I'm in the camp that believes this is not necessary. I expect improvement from Foster and Jones, and with the additions of Brown and Beasley that WR room is "fine" as it is. If Duke surprises or Sills is a steal even better. I think Knox is the sneaky-good pick of this draft for the Bills. Put a "middle of the pack" group of receivers out there with a good OL, good QB, and good RBs, and I think the offense is capable of scoring in the mid-20s consistently.

Apparently pre-sale for pre '94 accounts starts today. I need some club seats. Please PM me if you can help. I'm able to Venmo funds immediately.

I'm convinced that viewers who pay attention to all of the "fan theories" just set themselves up for disappointment. What happened was pretty straightforward -- Bran wasn't the NK, the NK wasn't secretly riding his dragon to Kings Landing, etc., etc. I'm not a fan of today's directors' love affair with "dark" scenes but it's really hard to create a realistic night time battle scene without it being dark. Closing Melisandre's arc with Arya (and then Sir Davos) was excellent storytelling. With the Northern army decimated it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. I still think Dany dies -- she's no better than her father and shouldn't "win" the throne. Tyrion and Sansa were my only two predictions of characters who will last the entire show -- that thought was strengthened last night.

Has Lorax given you the impression he’s a liar? Amazing what armchair athletes think they know about the inner workings of a team.

He's not there to play, he's there to be a 2nd coach for Josh who isn't hampered by coaching contact restrictions.

That was awesome. In these situations I always feel sorry for the player, because it's not his fault -- but wow. The draft crowd at the stadium all booed the pick! The Giants have become a joke.

And in taking those "lumps" they still managed to win 15 games in two years and end the playoff drought. Good times ahead.

I don't like broccoli.

Speaking of taking it to the next level...it still saddens me to think of how dominant Sam Cowart was becoming before a dirty play essentially ended him.

I will ALWAYS appreciate what Bill Polian did for the Buffalo Bills...but in 2019 I find him almost unlistenable.

And most importantly, great ability.

Interesting point -- Biscuit was always good, but right after that trade he seemed like he would be All-World.

I love this dude. Just watched the PC -- he is confident without sounding cocky, and he is sincerely happy to be a Bill. The guy literally got "bored" in college after his freshman year -- he has been waiting for this moment. So excited.

He might be -- but Josh and Baker have the potential to be great.

I think Darnold will always be a step behind Mayfield and Allen. Just a gut feeling kind of thing; I don't see the same kind of drive and desire I see in Baker and Josh.

Stay classy, Dwayne, The Skins suck.

I forgot they signed Peko. Why did they go DT in round 1 then?
