    I want this to happen so much...but I wonder if we'll get it. Jaime is one of the characters who you really have no idea how his story will end. Part of me thinks Brienne eventually has to kill him, part of me thinks he ends up with her.

    The "strong female thing" is undermined a little bit by the circumstances for each one though. Dany still needs Tyrion and Varys as advisors (with Barristan before that, not to mention 3 fucking dragons), and still has a soft spot for Ser Friendzone. Cersei needs Undead Mountain to enforce her...

    Well...if the Caps and Ducks manage to win tonight, I will have nailed 3 series in 2nd round perfectly even down to the # of games. Got Sens/Rags right in that it was 6 games, but wrong team.

    Bishop could still be good. A 4th isn't much to give up to have negotiating rights before free agency starts.

    Personally, I wouldn't if one of our stars was a home town kid that was drafted by the team and basically saved the franchise (DC fan here, though as I noted I don't follow NBA as much) left and tried to come back. But it's easy to play the "well you would do it to" card to people who aren't in...

    It doesn't come close to leaving your hometown team that lucked out to draft you #1 and bring them back to relevance. Despite Gaige claiming they were getting tossed early in the playoffs they made the Finals and got swept, then lost a tight 7 game series to the Celtics, after which they...

    He would if it had been as big a dick move as Lebron. KD didn't leave his HOMETOWN team, on which he had the best record in the league two years in a row before ditching them.

    More shifts for Ovechkin would work when we have 2 quality centers now. Maybe it's just Eller that kills me. Dude will cycle the puck and hold onto it forever and ignore his teammates far too often while he just tries to stick-handle through the entire D himself. Was probably why Burakovsky...

    Fuck Pittsburgh. Caps just need to play like the first 55 minutes of that game again. Still tired of Ovechkin on 3rd line. Eller does great on the boards and cycling the puck, but he doesn't enter the zone with control enough. About all we got out of it (although it seemed to wear guys down)...

    Carlson didn't look like that was going to be a good result for him at first. Then honestly the scariest play was Hornqvist's face coming that close to Niskanen's skate blade. Eyes, neck...all kinds of worry there. I saw blood on the towel they were holding to him, hopefully just on his cheek...

    This is a decent point...but 5 of those teams (Lakers, Celtics, Heat, Spurs, Cavs) were either semi dynasties or teams specifically built with key free agents grouping together to win a title. Only the Mavs and the Warriors won in the normal organic way, and the Warriors with Durant have turned...

    This Edmonton game. Holy shit. The passing on the hatty and 7th goal was just amazing. NBC savage as fuck too after the 5-0 1st replaying interview with Ducks pregame talking about how they need to get off to a good start.

    Went to the game tonight. Almost seemed sleepy through 40 minutes, 18-10 in shots, just not much going on at all. Literally only 9 shots combined in the 2nd period. Then the 3rd happened. The Ovechkin on the 3rd line experiment can go away though, Eller doesn't do as good a job carrying the...

    I don't want to mess with jinxing it, but it's a hell of a game. OT was nuts, Ducks got trapped a few times on long shifts (1st OT always long change period) and icings had very tired guys on, but survived. Some crazy chances for them though, shot snuck through Talbot and was sitting behind...

    Jets would seem like the perfect situation...but their owner has a big problem with his protest last year. I'm skeptical that resistance holds if their QB play is as bad as I expect it to be, but we'll see. Most other teams that "need" a QB got one in the draft, no? Trying to think of where...

    I didn't see how the blade came out, did he get hit with a shot (most obvious guess)? Yeah I read that Sid said he felt good even the day after the hit. Since he's skated multiple times since, I'm assuming he hasn't had symptoms flare up. He could play tomorrow night. No idea with Sheary...
