    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    If the Red Wedding episode is good, the raging in the non spoiler thread and other places may be just as good as the show.

    It's amazing how many guys manage to hang on in a backup role and get paid good money to do so.

    I just think it's funny Grossman still has a job Araysar. Although there is a reason for it, having been in Kyle Shanahan's system for even 1 year longer than he's been in DC.

    Everyone uses that excuse that we only beat up on the Southeast, yet down the stretch we beat Montreal twice, Toronto, and Boston. Also fun fact, Caps played 18 games against the Southeast while the rest of the East played...15 games against the Southeast.

    I don't see how we can complain about the jars scene but praise the foreshadowing from Qyburn in his scene. I doubt Selyse gets that much screen time, so adding in the scene with the jars really drives home the point she's fucked in the head. I thought it was a good addition to make her...

    I'd love to see Toronto pull it off, believe me. I just think the Bruins are a better team and not sure how Reimer will hold up.

    Just pointing out an odd thing, how come Romo gets credit for 6 GP in '04 and 16 GP in '05 but with absolutely zero passing stats for either season? Is that just credit as the holder for FG's/XP's? Would still be 6 more games played for Romo as an actual QB with 9 less picks...just weird.

    Is that confirmed no Patchface for the show? It's not much of a part (through Book 5 at least) but what Melisandre said about him made me think he was going to have more to his story.

    Brooks Laich reportedly had sports hernia surgery earlier this month, I doubt he's back unless we make a deep run. I think it's similar to what Green had done last year. Joel Ward has also been hurt, not sure what his timetable in. No other meaningful injuries for us as far as I know, since...

    I just don't understand some of the complaints. It almost feels like most docked our draft because we didn't have a 1st round pick, while claiming in their review that they raised our grade a bit since technically the RG3 trade counts as part of this draft (the 1st round pick that we didn't...

    Heard a rumor Clowe was hurt, no other details though. I think it'll be a good series, I just don't know which Caps team to expect...and frankly the secondary scoring has been real hit or miss of late. Ovechkin, Green, and the PP have been carrying us.

    I remember the Skipjacks back in the day, but you're right that I don't ever see Baltimore having the market for the NHL. It's not really as much of a basketball town as DC is either, even though the Wizards suck. You have to be pleased with your first 2 picks though. Basically fill your...

    Famm you with the Caps avatar creeps me out. But I guess we can have some Baltimore fans for the Caps. I talked some Ravens fan friends off the ledge based on their draft, your D could be better than it was last year potentially. I liked what the Skins did even with limited picks and no 1st...

    I couldn't help but laugh at this. Ovechkin's going to have fun doing whatever his entire life I'm convinced. His finance is also pretty hot and they seem like the real deal.

    It's good news in that I think it's better if he's healthy for the league. But obviously sucks for all the other teams if he comes back and doesn't miss a beat.

    Yeah Mike Ribeiro decided to go crazy and take 2 totally unnecessary penalties tonight, the 2nd one with only a minute left in the game after the whistle (Sens scored on the leftover 4 on 3 time in OT). Ruined a very pretty tying goal from Ovechkin (32nd, 3 up on Stamkos again), and a pretty...

    Caps clinch Southeast. Crazy game. We could have had 7 or 8 goals tonight with as many chances as we generated. Isles clinch too I believe?

    Live I thought it was in for sure, on replays I'm not sure if the whole puck was ever across the line before Erskine swept it out. I'd have to think they had a good look at it in Toronto. Not like Winnipeg hasn't gotten all the PP's and a very soft slash call already anyways.

    Caps v. Jets tonight, if we win in regulation or OT we clinch division. Didn't think about the fact Jets would only have 1 more game after tonight so if we get a ROW tonight it locks the tiebreakers for us.

    With all the hype about the top group of OL, you could see teams panic a little and there be a run on all the top level ones pretty early on. Pressure to grab one before they're all gone might set in.

    Question is how healthy will you be? You're still stacked but it could make it a more even serious. Lundy is bound to actually have a sick playoffs at some point in his career too. Callahan is heating up, the Rags seem to be getting it going at the right time. Don't get me wrong, I'd still...

    Absolutely fantastic episode. Dany gets a +5 from me after this one. The buildup for Hound v. Beric was fucking great too. Queen of Thorns continues to fucking own it. Even the shit beyond the Wall was good this episode. Some minor things...we still haven't seen Sam kill the Other/white...

    If they're not going to cut him for 2 years doesn't that automatically meet the requirement for the other pick being a 3rd in 2014? Jets getting back a 1st and a 3rd for Revis is a pretty good return in my opinion. There's no question when healthy he is a beast but who knows if he'll play more...

    I think they'll overlook his D zone issues given the storyline of the Isles going back to the playoffs and him leading them. I've just heard his name pop up a lot more when the discussion for the Hart has been going on the last couple weeks. No kidding about Dats though. Guy is a damn...

    Some writer I read recently made a good point...if you're going to dock Sid (and lets face it, if he were healthy there would be no debate about the Hart) for not being around for April, you kind of have to dock Ovechkin for being virtually absent (along with the rest of the Caps) for the first...

    Ladd has been good for Atlanta/Winnipeg too. Dude that team you guys had was so fucking stacked. I think the year after you had something like only 14 or 15 guys signed and less than $10 mill in cap space leftover to sign 8 or 9 more guys. You had to do some cap relief. But what a roster it...
