  1. Derka is right. You are bound by the universe you have previously created. Jon being resurrected by a witch falls in line with the magic of this world. People being able to escape certain death in a matter of jump cuts has not been how the show previously worked. Just because there is magic doesn't mean there aren't natural laws and rules in place. It is lazy writing to use the excuse of magic to mean literally anything can happen.
  2. Nice strawman there. All I was hoping for was some explanation to the NK. The revisionist 'he is death' slogan people are saying ignores all the foreshadowing and back story we have gotten to this point, and is way overly simplistic. All the different spirals we've seen over the seasons meant nothing, I guess. It is clear the showrunners decided they'd rather do a cliche, simple ending than the one that has been lead up to in the preceding seasons.
  3. I agree with Derka, would rate it a 5/10. The dialogue in this show has just gotten downright bad over the last few seasons. And the riding around on the dragons like Aladdin was cringy. I think people are lying to themselves about how good it is when it really has fallen off over the latest few seasons. Still an epic show but not reaching the highs of the first 3-4 seasons.
  4. Sam’s Town Point is an absolute dive. Can you still smoke in there? I know you could circa 2011 since it wasn’t part of the CoA if I recall.
  5. Just for the record, there is zero chance Metcalf is at sub 2% body fat. I don’t know what method the combine uses but he is likely closer to 6-8%. Kind of laughable that it’s been reported as such... Elite bodybuilders don’t even get close to 2%. As far as I know it would be potentially fatal to be that low.
  6. Don’t think it’s even possible with heavy PED use. Not if you are already 290 to start with.
  7. You think they put enough cheese on there?
  8. That hat cost $150 btw https://www.matchesfashion.com/us/products/1255782?
  9. I wear suspenders (actually braces that button into the inside of the pants, not that clip on 5 year old look so many guys do nowadays) with my suits, and as a fat ass, it is the only way to go. Belts don't work if you have a gut, as you have to wear the pants below the waist unless you want to look like Charlie Weis with the fupa. Suspenders allow your pants to actually stay up instead of always sliding down and having your shirt come untucked like with a belt. If I could get back to my college weight I might start wearing belts again, but honestly suspenders are way more comfortable and allow pants to trousers to fit correctly.
  10. Yeah, Brady has a long way to go to match Blanda's 277 INTs
  11. It’s naive to think that being a small minority, no matter the race, isn’t difficult for some kids. I’m not saying the minority kid will be beat up, but they can definitely feel isolated or out of place if they are the one black, brown, white, yellow kid in their class. I believe it is great for kids to be in a diverse environment but being in an 80% Hispanic or black school isn’t any more diverse than an 80% white.
  12. My sister is a teacher at Murchison, and it has definitely hit the school hard. However, that school in general has been by the far the best she's worked at, outside of the aforementioned overcrowding. Definitely the best middle school in AISD outside of maybe Gorzycki. It does have a mix of socio-economic backgrounds, as they still send kids from places east of Mopac, but that is probably good for the otherwise super sheltered kids that go there. She did teach at Bedichek, so she would laugh at calling it 'Murchitraz'.
  13. He also had a throw in the first NYG Super Bowl that went about 70 yards in the air:

  15. His shoulders are several inches higher than his dads but his finger tips are several inches lower. A knuckle dragger in the best possible way
  16. Ever since I started doing Flonase morning and night it has fairly well neutralized my cedar allergies. It still gets me a bit with the itchy eyes and sneezing but at about 10% of what it used to be
  17. He definitely missed his chance for Glass: more than half full
  18. Better than Julio Jones? So he’s gonna be a top 10-20 WR of all time? Seems...bold...
  19. So what time of day are you thinking? Maybe lunch time?
  20. A young boy from our church has this. It has been heart breaking and difficult to watch as the poor family has struggled with this. He is doing much better know as far as movement, but he is still in a wheelchair. Here is the video KXAN did on them: https://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/mystery-illness-paralyzing-central-texas-children/1552035922
  21. My wife’s grandfather was a pitcher for the Longhorns on their 1950 national championship team. Went on to pitch in the minors for the then Milwaukee braves. He had some cool stories of pitching against Eddie Matthews, frank robinson and Mickey mantle.
