Ok I think I'm totally on Team Stannis at this point. The tv show has made him pretty badass. I can't wait for the Battle of Winterfell in book 6. I don't believe Ramsey's letter to Jon Snow at all....

Stannis pulls the upset.... But winter comes.... And then we get zombie Stannis!

A really cool theory I like (Don't know if it's been posted): 

 

http://comeonhitme.wordpress.com/2013/07/31/game-of-thrones-jon-snow-will-lead-the-army-of-white-walkers-against-daenerys-targaryen-and-her-dragons/

 

Subjects: AA, APTWP, Whitewalkers, Jon, Bloodraven, Dany, Targaryens

 

 

 

According to the story there were originally five dragon eggs. Ilyrio Mopatis gave three to Daenerys as a wedding gift. Brynden “Bloodraven” Rivers presumably has another in his possession. The location of the fifth one is unknown (possibly at the bottom of the sea according to Greyjoys). If Bloodraven has the dragon egg, and if Jon Snow is a Targ by blood (bastard or not), this would explain Bloodraven’s interest in Jon Snow, which brings us back to the fourth possible rebirth of Jon Snow in the upcoming book. So far we know that Valyrian blood is somehow tied to the dragons, which enables Targaryens to tame them. Starks are descendants of the First Men, able to warg other living entities and bond with direwolves. If Jon Snow is both, and if his rebirth is of any importance, and we believe it is, it is possible that the duality he carries within himself can make him fit for awakening both types of dragons: (1) dragon from stone Melisandre is talking about, which is probably not hidden at the Dragonstone but is instead in Bloodraven’s possession; Euron’s egg, which he claims he tossed into the sea (see Patchface) and (3) the ice dragon.

 

I think a common perception is of course Dany and Jon are the focal points...one representing Ice and the other Fire in a protagonist light.  

 

Also, there are a ton of theories surrounding R+L=J, and honestly I think it's true.  Where the potential surprise lies is ahead is after knowing this and what it truly means for Jon moving forward.  He has the true blood to awaken the dragons (Rhaegar's lineage) on one side and the blood line to the first men and magical northern powers (Starks).  He has the ability to forge these together through a sacrifice and resurrection of sorts...it will give birth to the missing dragons of those 5.  The final battle will be Jon potential leading the WWs again Dany's dragons and army.  

 

The Bloodraven's potential agenda has a lot of incite into certain implications:

 

 

 

Being the last greenseer he surely knows past, present and future, meaning he will know that Jon will be reborn, therefore, the only conclusion we can draw from this sequence of the events is that Bloodraven needs Jon Snow reborn and in order to be reborn Jon Snow needs to die. Bloodraven is therefore well aware of that especially if he is in the possession of the infamous dragon egg. He needs Jon to literally wake the dragon from stone and he also did promise Bran that he would fly.

 

 

 

 

As for the ice dragon it is a species of dragon that exists in Westeosi fairytales. Old Nan used to tell tales of the ice dragon. However, whether ice dragons did actually exist in the A Song of Ice and Fire world at one time is unknown. 

 

A lot in there to digest but I think it ties things well.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
