  1. I can't get over the Rob Turner back to back penalties, followed up with a run on the 1 yard line with CJ. That was the moment I knew we were gonna lose. Everything else after was just fool's gold.
  2. Look at stephen tulloch at 63... could have had 3 players in top 100
  3. A few notes: @ @Jamalisms #1. Knight of Flowers was supposed to be the "next Jaime" in terms of skill and swoon factor. GRRM only alluded to him being gay in the 3rd book where IIRC Jaime threatens him saying something to the effect "I'll stick a sword so far up your ass Renly could never find." He also willingly takes the Kingsguard (they are supposed to be have no children, no wife, etc) at the age of 16 or so, just like Jaime. Jaime did it to be close to his lover/sister. Why would Loras? I do wish they made it a little bit more ambiguous, but HBO is gonna HBO. #2. Robb married Jeyne Westerling, daughter of a Lannister bannerman. This happened after he was wounded during his campaign to sack Lannisport. She treats his wounds, gives him some nookie, and he decides to do the "noble" thing. He weds her instead of leaving her like he believes his father did with Jon's mother. HBO wanted to make the character more exotic, just like they did with Shae. In the books Jeyne Westerling is a normal, cute, shy girl. Also, If they made her a Westerling in the tv show, they'd have to introduce Raynald (the father), and a lot of the intrigue surrounding a Lannister bannerman helping a Stark for no other reason than his daughter slept with him. Without knowing what happens next, it would seem implausible to see why he would allow it. Lannisters always pay their debts, and Raynald would know that his family would end up like the Reynes of Castamere. So to bypass all of that, instead of Jeyne Westerling, you get Lady Tylisa from Volantis. No ties to Westeros, no family, no further intrigue. It makes the story simpler, and easier to keep track of.
  4. Sometimes, this is how I feel when I hear about game of thrones from the plebeian masses. I started reading the books in 2003 (at the age of 14), and have had to wait for so long for ADWD...
  5. He licked her honey from her hair..
  6. You could use this for the front page under some kind of "One Fan's Plan" title or something. It needs to be updated I think.
  7. Can we somehow get this linked by Sports Illustrated Titans news page? They have automatic links from Titansinsider, music city miracles, The Tennessean, etc. Ya'll should look into seeing if the same thing could happen for TR.
