  1. My guess is that if a WW is struck by valerian steel or dragon glass, they cannot be resurrected.
  2. They actually did have a plan, that's why Danny and Jon were watching from a distance to start. They were supposed to wait for the ice dragon and NK to appear and attack them with both dragons. But when the dothraki were decimated in the initial charge, Danny's emotions got the better of her and she hopped on her dragon early. I will take your initial advice and pay no attention to your theories...
  3. Cheesy, but significant. Daenerys didn't share one of her dragons with Jon, she gave Jon Snow that dragon, Rhaegal is his for life now. That's pretty big, a little better protector than a direwolf. Huge bond between dragon and rider, hence the stare...
  4. Camp body or injury insurance, either way good depth and competition for camp...
  5. https://buffalonews.com/2019/04/10/the-struts-the-glorious-sons-to-saunter-to-canalside-this-summer/ On the heels of Incubus and the Psychedelic Furs - the two previous announcements for the 2019 Canalside Live Concert Series - a powerful double bill has been unveiled for this summer by the water. The Struts, an English glam-rock band, will be complemented by rapidly rising The Glorious Sons on July 25 at Canalside (44 Prime St.). VIP tickets are on sale now for $35, while general admission tickets - just $5 - will be available at 10 a.m. April 12, also through Eventbrite or at Consumer's Beverages locations and the Canalside info kiosk. Freddie Mercury-esque frontman Luke Spiller and the rest of The Struts are regulars in the Buffalo area, playing Rapids Theatre each of the last two years. See Smiles from the local fans from 2018 and 2017, plus a photo gallery dedicated to band shots in 2017. Esquire's interview with The Struts last month - entitled "The Struts Are the Glam-Rock Style Gods We Need Right Now" - gives a sense of the band's M.O. The Glorious Sons, from Kingston, Ont, is a more recent arrival to the scene, selling out Rec Room in February. Those fans were treated to frontman Brett Emmons donning a retro Thurman Thomas Bills jersey on stage during a sweat-drenched set. The band's last full release was 2017's "Young Beauties and Fools," which included mega-hit single "S.O.S." that earned the five-piece a new wave of fans.
  6. First Canalside show officially announced: California rock band Incubus will play Buffalo's waterfront this summer. The Canalside Live Concert Series announced that the band, fronted by Brandon Boyd since its formation in 1991, will play at 5 p.m. Aug. 6. VIP tickets are $40, on sale through EventBrite and include access to the Honda VIP Pavilion, two complimentary drinks, private restrooms and access to the front of the stage. The VIP section has been enlarged and stretches from Main Street to the Beer Garden. General admission tickets for this show are $10 and will go on sale in May, with the specific date to be determined. Sites for purchase are all 17 Consumers Beverages locations and the Canalside info kiosk, which both include a free drink coupon if purchased before 2 p.m. the day of the show, and through EventBrite. Canalside noted that this Tuesday show is a special gig; the majority of Canalside Live shows will be held Thursdays, ranging from $5-$35.
  7. Wow...they really did cut the best part out. I went to bed Sunday night thinking Alpha letting Daryl go was the last scene. Damn, that was unexpected!
  8. Not sure how big of a role he plays, as I do not watch Billions, but I just saw Dan Soder (Mafee on Billions) at Helium Comedy Club this past weekend. He was hilarious... Soder...What's with all the traffic? Uber Driver...Lacrosse game Soder...C'MON! Only in Buffalo...
  9. Texas Tech was the better team. UB did not play well, but they were beat down by a better team. Great season, lot's of fun...

  11. Just finished season the 2nd season of Broadchurch, it's about the murder of young boy in a small town. The first season was good, the second season was very good. Watched the 1 episode of the 3rd and final season last night and I am not sure where it will go, but overall a very good show. It's British, takes place in a small town in Ireland, so you have to deal with the accents. Also, it's more real life actors. So if you're used to the sexy detective and/or suspects which is generally the case in the US, this isn't the show for you. https://www.netflix.com/title/70302484
  12. I agree, they were never in discussion for a 4. Plus 6 seeds historically have more final 4 appearances than 5's, so I am good with it. Still the highest seeding for a MAC team ever. As for the Hurley/Oats match up, there is also a possible father/son AD matchup with Duke and UCF (former UB AD). So it's laughable that the committee states they don't think about match up story lines...
  13. I thought they deserved at least a 5, but the 5th in that region ends up playing Murray State, so I'm okay with a 6...

  16. Nice article in the Buffalo News on how Perkins has matured through the years and why he comes off the bench... https://buffalonews.com/2019/03/14/ub-mens-basketball-nick-perkins-mac-tournament-ncaa-sixth-man-2019/ Becoming the sixth man Perkins started 22 games in his first two seasons at UB, but Oats noticed how Perkins was eager. Sometimes, too eager. Perkins made mistakes, or committed early fouls that limited his playing time later in the game. Oats and his staff figured out how to make Perkins his most effective: turn him into the first player off the bench. The sixth man. Perkins usually watches the first few minutes of the game from the bench, and enters the game during the fourth or fifth minute. He brings an edge to the team when he steps onto the court. In an 80-57 win against Kent State on Feb. 22, Perkins boosted an offense that, at one point, moved at a snail's crawl. The Bulls had scored 10 points in the first 9:32, and were on pace to finish with around 40 points, an uncharacteristically low total for a team that leads the MAC in scoring offense (85 points per game). UB guard CJ Massinburg recalled how, a few minutes after Perkins entered the game and immediately told his teammates on the floor that "we've got to pick up the pace here." "That's not like us, because we're a team that picks up a lot of points," Massinburg said. "He let us know that we needed to do a better job of that." Then, in the final 1:15 of the first half, Perkins sparked a 10-point swing in which he scored eight of his game-high 27 points. “At the beginning of the game, everybody can be a little eager and excited, but he gets to see how the other team is playing, how we’re playing and what he has to do,” Massinburg said of Perkins. “Every time he checks in, he gives us some kind of insight from what he sees, off the bench.” Perkins’ maturation and unselfishness on the floor have stood out to Massinburg. “His first couple years, he’d shoot it, no matter what happens,” Massinburg said. “But now, one thing it does for him, it opens up the floor. If we’re hitting open threes off his passes, then the double-team can’t come anymore and now he knows he can get his shots off.” But Perkins’ fiery nature has also burned the Bulls.
  17. Sweet, thanks for the info! Even though I love a good panini, how can the Harry Buffalo not be the place to be for UB? Plus it's a snowballs throw to the Q. At any rate, I most likely will be there in my UB Blue!!!
