Wow, great episode, hell I was thinking that it was a really good episode BEFORE the red wedding. I thought the wedding was really well done, there was a rather ominous tone to the whole affair so you assumed something may happen, but it was all going so well that I was still blindsided by the scale of brutality .

Reflecting on the characters who died- it is so awesome and unique for this to happen on a TV show.  It would be much harder to kill off "the good guy" on a successful TV show without the source material already written because of the public outcry.

 

Oh yeah, and Robb was a really boring character and I've disliked Cat for a while.  Now he just needs to kill off the fat guy up north

Yes lol you are.

 

Namely.

 

Jon Snow, Arya, Sansa, Bran, and Rickon. :)

 

 

Ned, Kat, Rob are dead.

 

2 of the 7 dire wolves are dead.

 

The latter, a greater loss IMO.

 

Yeah, after speaking to some book readers, they said the same. Don't know much about Rickon as he barely got much exposure. Arya seems like the most dangerous one and Bran might be if he finds the Raven. lol Sansa.

So at what point in the books will we be after the finale? I kinda want to read from that point on. I tried starting at the beginning once and just couldn't get excited while reading because so much was the same.

The show is currently in about the middle of book 3. But you'd need to start from the beginning of book 3 because it jumps around a bit in it.

if i'm recommending a general place for a show watcher to start, i think Clash of Kings is the first book different enough to really be a unique experience from the show. season 1 is pretty faithful to the first book even as far as taking a lot of the dialogue right from it. season 2 starts to deviate a lot and you get a way better picture from the book of a lot of characters, like Renly (who absolutely owns Stannis in their encounter which is left out of the show) and Loras and others.

 

You can start at book 3 if you really don't care about Renly, or who Robb really married, or that it's only strongly implied that Stannis cheats on his wife.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Have to stop making everything about BY. They will and have been bringing in players to improve the TEAM, not just Bryce Young. Which is something they should have done BEFORE bringing in a rookie QB. Even Metchie is a generally good pickup at a position of need. He just happens to have played with BY in college. And that doesn't hurt his chances or the team's. Morgan just addressed the biggest areas of need on the team via free agency so they won't be reaching for a position of need in the draft. He's legit picking the best player available for the TEAM in the draft. The o-line was in shambles in 2023. He addressed it in 2024. The d-line was in shambles in 2024. He addressed it in 2025. The pass rush and linebackers were in shambles in 2025. He's addressed it in 2026. Unfortunately good young WRs don't hit the FA market, so can't just throw money at them. You have to draft them. I wonder what some would be saying if they'd spent the amount of cap on the offense that they spent on the defense in 2025 and 2026 - and then used both first round draft picks on defense. Would that have been better in your eyes? No. You would be complaining that the defense is too young to compete and more vets weren't brought in because they're trying to prop up BY. This team should be talented enough now to make some noise in the South. If BY is actually holding them back, then QB will be addressed in 2027. They benched him 2 games into their tenure and you think they're tied to his success. No. That doesn't compute. They're tied to the team's success. BY could throw for 5000 yards and if they're 4 - 13, head's will roll.  TLDR: Their decisions aren't driven by making BY look good. They're trying to improve the team and win games. Period.

      I still firmly believe that Tepper still has his mandate of make Bryce work or get fired and because of that, it doesn't matter how badly he does... He'll get a long term deal in the 40-50m range and set back this franchise for a decade. Then the Teppers will have another QB infatuation and maybe they get it right then.
