Rubes

Finally. A holiday for me!

I've done quite a few things in my life "just for the hell of it," but I can say with certainty that this never entered into the realm of possibility for me.

Whatever happened to that LB from the Jets that everyone assumed would sign with the Bills once Pettine came over? Still out there?

Crap, that must mean our defense sucks. Doomed!

I haven't heard that. I've seen interviews where he says he's planning on telling the story until it's done, which he planned for seven books (maybe eight, depending on how big they get). Either way, I'm not troubled...I'm completely fascinated by his writing. His attention to detail and subtle foreshadowing are really excellent.

Wow, that looked pretty damn cool.

I watched seasons 1 and 2 before starting to read the books, so I knew most of the action in the first two books before reading them. And I have to tell you, it didn't diminish the experience at all. Now, I will say that Book 3 is absolutely spectacular, and I'm glad I read that one before seeing this last season, but I still think it will be very much worth it to read the books even after seeing the first three seasons. I'd definitely do it -- GRRM is a really good writer.

Speak for yourself, big guy.

Well, somebody was needed to fill Bruschi's old role, I suppose...

Agree, tough one. Sorry to hijack the thread with that, but it certainly seemed warranted.

Nice story. Even better, I caught this link on that same page: Kate Upton nearly busts out of her top on movie set (Warning: possibly NSFW, but not nearly as much as I'd hoped)

I don't know, this just strikes me as someone trying to stir the pot in a slow news period for the NFL. If they wanted to, they could do the same for us by pointing out that EJ is "getting the fewest reps of all the QBs except for Tuel, indicating the first-rounder might be a long way from being ready to start at QB for the Bills."

Yeah, that really does suck for them.

Book Three (Storm of Swords) was just fantastic, and I've been waiting for this episode for a while. I thought they did a nice job, despite a few changes from the book. Even knowing what was going to happen, it was still quite shocking.

Next year will be the 70th anniversary of D-Day. If my 91-year-old stepfather is healthy enough, I'll be going there for it with him. He drove one of the landing crafts for the British navy at Juno.

That's good to hear. Especially at the center position.

Dude, seriously. I had that one on page 1.

That's great news. It would be pretty amazing to see all draft picks signed long before training camp.

Post of the Year.

Well played, sir.

I wonder if his friends call him The Big Legursky.

I am this horribly disturbing combination of #9 and #11. I can't imagine anybody enjoys being around me during a game.

Friskiness?

God I hope you're right.
