I'm trying not to read any of this, as I just finished season 2, episode 5. This show is awesome. Gonna grab the first book whenever I am caught up and try to knock it out over a week or two as well, as I hear it's different enough and good enough to do so.

The first book and season one are incredibly similiar but book 2 and season 2 have a decent amount of small similarities to keep it interesting.

i read the first book after watching the show and it was definitely worth it. it clears some things up and obviously expands on some things. i feel like i'm much more knowledgable about the world after reading it.

lol

This thread basically introduced me to ASOIAF since I thought it sounded interesting... I was lucky enough to be out of town the week the first episode of season 1 aired. The hotel had HBO and I remembered this thread, so I watched a rerun.

When I got back in town two days later, I found all 4 books in a set at my local Walmart.

I pretty much finished all 4 books in three months. Just in time for the 5th book, which I finished in a few days. It is impressive because I hadn't really read anything book-wise in almost 12-13 years up to that point. lol...

After finishing those, I've gone on to read a poo ton of books, and it all started here.

Long story short... THANKS HUDDLE!

I felt it only fitting that I do this. We still need some people to take up some Lannister and Stark profiles.

Warwick Davis is going to replace Peter Dinklage next season! OMG!!!!!

http://hbowatch.com/...il-season-four/

Yes, I know, day late dollar short. But I just saw this.

I saw this on facebook the other day and FREAKED. I was about to rage....until a friend told me to go to the bottom of the article. At that point, the heart attack that was sure to come subsided and I was able to sleep.

Also, YOU WOULD BE A LANNISTER OTHER THAN TYRION! Eh, at least you're not Joffrey.

I thought about changing it to Tyrion as he is my favorite character, but I'm not as cunning as he. I'm more of an action first think later kind of person so Jaime was the perfect choice. If any poster were to change their name to Joffrey it would have to be BWood.

Also, when I saw that on FB yesterday my heart flipped out knowing it wasn't April fools anymore, then I saw the date of the post and literally and figuratively LOL'd.

      Thielen traded

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Vikings bring back WR Thielen from Panthers Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen, conditional 2026 seventh-round pick, 2027 fifth-round pick Panthers get: 2026 fifth-round pick, 2027 fourth-round pick Vikings grade: A- Panthers grade: C+ The Vikings have re-united with their longtime receiver Adam Thielen. Assuming the conditions of the 2026 pick headed to Minnesota are met, the Vikings will have moved back two rounds in next year's draft and one round in 2027's draft to acquire the single year remaining on the 35-year-old receiver's contract. This is fine business. The Vikings' receiver depth will be tested early this season, as WR3 speedster Jalen Nailor recovers from a hand injury and WR2 Jordan Addison serves a three-game suspension. Depth receiver Rondale Moore had a season-ending knee injury early this offseason, leaving rookie Tai Felton and veteran Tim Jones as the depth behind Justin Jefferson to start the season. Thielen should slot right into a familiar offense and provide a good safety blanket for young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who needs strong early performances in September to boost his confidence and generate some positive momentum. I like the deal a lot for that reason: McCarthy won't spend the first three starts of his NFL career endeavoring to make up for bad receiver play. This is actually a bigger risk for the Panthers than it appears. From Week 8 on last season -- the stretch in which quarterback Bryce Young came back and looked solid -- Thielen was the Panthers' best receiver. Sure, guys like Jalen Coker and Ja'Tavion Sanders were having breakout games, and the backs were getting involved as pass catchers, but it was Thielen who drove the ship. Thielen averaged 2.47 yards per route run in that stretch, which was the 14th best number in the NFL. He also caught 80% of his targets when Coker and Xavier Legette caught 63.2% and 56.4%, respectively. Thielen was so valuable that the Panthers gave him a raise in March worth $1.5 million to encourage him to stave off retirement. The drafting of first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillan always foretold a decrease in target share for Thielen. But keeping Thielen around for another year would have helped smooth the transition. Now the Panthers enter the season with a starting receiver trio (McMillan, Coker and Legette) full of big-play potential but no proven chemistry with Young over the middle of the field. That's an important cornerstone of the Panthers' offensive system that needs replacing. -- Solak
