    Your skepticism about the Bills is certainly justified, but I'm kinda optimistic, including as regards TT, McD and the Pegulas.

    Welcome Jeff!

    So I've been thinking about the riders of the other 2 dragons, and I'm ready to predict that the 3rd rider (assuming Jon Snow is the 2nd, which as I mentioned above I think is a lock) is going to be either Tyrion (probably) or Bran (possibly).

    I agree that Danerys is, despite hotness and frequent nudity, kind of annoying and entitled on occasion. But I don't think the White Walkers would give Westeros back to the Children of the Forest -- I think the Children of the Forest created the White Walkers as a weapon against the First Men, but the White Walkers turned against the Children of the Forest.

    They didn't sign Boldin to stretch the field. They signed him to be a big target who is smart, knows how to get open on short routes, including in the red zone, won't drop it or commit a dumb penalty and will help move the chains.

    In the last scene in which we see Bronn, he's looking at a white horse. The guy who saves Jaime jumped off a white horse to do so.

    Yuck. I think he's bottom-3rd in the NFL at the #2 WR slot. Separately: Boldin had 67 catches and 8 TDs last year. That is pretty solid production and not indicative of someone who's fallen off the table. He could be a really good addition.

    I think it's a lock.

    I never watched House, but the star plays a great villain on "The Night Manager," which is a very good spy thriller mini-series that I think is on Netflix or Amazon Prime.

    I replayed it in slo-mo. It wasn't totally clear, but I'm about 80% confident it was Bronn. These are all true, but I'm referring more to the viewers' expectations based on a lengthy story arc than to the characters' expectations (and in this case, Jaime likely had an expectation that his charging Drogon was highly likely to end up in him getting very crispy). As for remembering anyone else being saved -- a very similar situation happened a couple of seasons ago with Tyrion almost drowning when he and Jorah were attacked by the stone men near Valyria. That episode also ended with Tyrion vanishing into the depths IIRC, and the next one started with him being revived on the beach. It's "Bran" you hoser

    Well, I don't think they would've saved Jamie from incineration only to drown him a minute later. Someone -- probably Bronn, whom I think is the one that saved Jamie -- will fish him out IMHO.

    That was a freaking great episode. I think top 5 of all time. I trust no one was disappointed with the budget for battle and dragon scenes? As Qwk noted, the Brienne-Arya scene was great. For that matter I thought all of the Winterfell scenes were great (and I'm not sure how anyone could be unhappy with the lighting of the outdoor winter scenes in the weirwood). And that final battle scene was incredible. Are we sure it was Bronn who saved Jamie?

    JJ50 -- is Lehner better or worse than Enroth?

    Very nice. I think Tom W. is seating you in the bathroom this year.

    Swamp -- if you have HBO, the top 3, without question, are The Sopranos, The Wire and Deadwood. Then Game of Thrones, if you liked The Lord of the Rings but you want an R-rated version. Or Curb Your Enthusiasm, if you want a comedy. After that, I would go with Mad Men, which is now on Netflix, and Catastrophe, which is on Amazon. Then, The Americans, which I think is also on Netflix. And if you can handle subtitles, Deutscheland 83, which I think is on Netflix. The Office and Parks & Recreation are 2 other really good comedies that are probably on Netflix or Amazon.

    If they were in the freezer until Wednesday night, and then immediately into the fridge, I would cook and eat them until Saturday night without thinking twice and probably be willing to roll the dice and eat them on Monday night.

    Sorry everyone -- was traveling all day. Anyway, my choice is John Gibson.

    Well, Pommer could be viewed as an Ennis replacement.

    Air travel. Flight last night cancelled. Rebooked for a 6:30 AM departure today -- which required a 4:20 AM wake up. Arrived at the airport and was greeted by an 80-minute delay, plus long lines at security. Yuck.

    Max Domi.

    FIFY.

    I too would like to come but can't commit yet. Hopefully SFiNS and I and the other latecomers will enjoy the game from the Pegulas' box...

    I think when today's posts were deleted, the thread dropped down a few pages, since the most recent posts before today were several weeks ago.
  24. nfreeman
    The thread wasn't deleted -- just today's 2nd-thoughts material. So hopefully everything is copacetic. Boy, if life were only like that...

    Bump. (Regretted content has been removed.) Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
