  1. I'm expecting them to kill off Myrcella in this upcoming episode. By doing so, it allows them to merge Trystane's storyline with Quentyn's early next year.
  2. Agreed, it definitely wasn't a surprise. It just completely overshadowed the Mereen scenes. The Hardhome scenes last week made the episode; hell, it was some of the best stuff in the series. This week's big finale...a huge mess of inconsistency in Mereen.
  3. She apparently doesn't need them. Thankfully, when they have someone hopelessly outnumbered and surrounded, they send in one man at a time while the rest stand around picking their butts. That whole scene bothered me, not just because the harpies were so laughably incompetent, but because it paled in comparison to how horrible Stannis and Melisandre proved themselves just prior. And by the way, honest question: Does Dany have greyscale now? Jorah held her hand for a good while.
  4. Absolutely. Granted, I don't know about the whole thing with the McNuggets. Kinda gross, but oh well. You can't have everything, I suppose.
  5. No doubt that was the best episode of the season. One of the best in the series. No wonder they decided to have Jon go to Hardhome. I don't know how they're going to top that in the next two episodes, regardless of the book events that we know are coming.
  6. He meant to do that, though. His turnovers actually put them in position to win at the end, but everyone else screwed it up. He had a great plan.
  7. Can't be any worse than what Massachusetts is currently sending to DC. I'd definitely vote for him over Elizabeth Warren, which says a lot about Elizabeth Warren, I might add.
  8. No kidding. Personally, I always thought the midget was the curse. The guy was lucky he started as long as he did. It was someone else's fault. It was always someone else's fault.
  9. I should have clarified...I meant Theon's Reek persona.
  10. No. She had left for King's Landing by the time that Reek/Ramsay was captured and imprisoned at Winterfell. As for the Theon version, no, she never met him in the books.
  11. He should get a suspension of several games, at the very least, plus a large fine. In reality, he likely won't be suspended at all, and the league will let him off with a 'large' fine that really doesn't amount to much.
  12. Yep. While I feel that he should be suspended for at least a third of the season, the most likely outcome is no suspension and a relatively large fine that the league can play up as some serious punishment, but won't really hurt Brady or the Pats much at all.
  13. Luckily for them, the league will never do much of anything to force them past that stage. Brady and the Pats will get off with a relatively light punishment.
  14. More likely, he'll be suspended for the first drive of a preseason game, after which Goodell will publicly beg his forgiveness.
  15. If it refers to dragonriders at all. It seems logical, but I wonder if its not actually a reference to three competing branches of of House Targaryen. Regardless, I would throw out that Bran's storyline puts him in direct contact with Bloodraven, aka Brynden Rivers, who's father is a Targaryen.
  16. Good point. I'd forgotten about that.
  17. Hopefully, I can get this damned spoiler tag to work...
  18. I wonder if they're even going to do that. They've had another chance to show that before in a similar situation and skipped over it. Could be that its something they think a TV audience won't buy into.
  19. Looks like we're going to get the big reveal/spoiler about Jon this season. Whether the non-readers picked up on it is another matter, but I don't see how you couldn't. They slapped you in the face with it repeatedly. And although his plan was predictable, we now know what LF has in mind by shipping Sansa off to Ramsay Bolton.
  20. No kidding. I was about to comment on how awful this format is.
  21. I think it was when Nix became GM. While it didn't translate to wins during his tenure, the uptick in the talent level began at that time. Plus, I think he brought some credibility and respectability back to the front office and the team that has since allowed them to attract major free agents. I can understand why some don't see it that way, but to me, that point of demarcation between 'laughingstock' and return to credibility clearly happened in his tenure.
  22. I don't mind it. They're going to need a good CB prospect soon enough. Both Graham and McKelvin turn 30 this year.
  23. I suspect that she won't, and that when all this plays out, it could indeed be the 'end game' for LF, just not quite how he expects.
  24. They're the same torture entourage that Ramsay used against Theon a couple seasons ago.
  25. Pretty sure he's actually screwing the Boltons over here. He knows they have a tenuous hold on the north and that the northern lords are not happy about the Boltons' betrayal of the Starks, and what better way to stir that pot than to put the only known Stark heir in the hands of Bolton's demented son? The end game for LF? He's hoping the nothern lords will rally to Sansa, and that Sansa, as ruler of the north, would be a loyal ally to him and someone he can manipulate for his future plans.
