Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (Better late than never...)

Ketch,

I had that set also... remember Cory Snyder and Oddibe Mcdowell cards... i thought coru snyder was gonna be great..lol
 
Ok, I will ask... Who is Pedro?

He's the official unofficial OB mascot and the spirit animal of the Bro Down Thread. Duh!
 
I can’t believe that the Carl Yastrzemski card where he had the big sideburns didn’t make the list. Milhouse sure was keen to buy it at The Android’s Dungeon.

several years ago I had to take a family member to the ER at the South Austin Hospital, it was about 11 pm on 4th of July. I didn't think we'd ever get out of there. Great write up Ketch and I hope everything is ok with whoever you took to the ER
Became a fan of SAMC after they saved my life around Nov 26 2017. Nearly bled out after a freak accident—radial artery injury—lost about 2 liters of blood before they fixed me up.
 
Respectfully disagree on Rising. He will be extra good and we may or may not have a good quarterback in 2021. It was a big loss.

I believe Hudson Card is that guy.
I hope you're right, Ketch. But wasn't he a WR himself just a couple years ago?. You know more about him than I do so I'll take your point. Still need the RB to compliment him.
 
I dunno. That line about her being the future of House Mormont seemed to be screaming, "YOU DEAD GIRL!"

I feel ya, but if Jorah dies, and I feel he's destined to perish, there must be someone in high ranks to continue to lead that family name.

Also, on Tormund, is there any current representation of the free folk? He's currently the face of this group and I feel/hope he survives.

What if Sam has to kill Gilly. That would cause a tizzy.

I can see a lot of the living folk having to kill recently dead loves of their or folks like Jon having to sacrifice Dany to win the war against the NK.

Sam would kill himself long before he would kill Gilly.
 

The audience and fans will need a net to fall onto. This battle will be epic, devastating and so very bitter sweet. I'm feeling a sitting in my chair, staring at the wall after this episode. When they return for ep 4, the pieces will be putting back together as the survivors prepare to return to Kings Landing.

Does the show "need" a surviving Mormont? No, but Lyanna has taken on a little cult following. There is not a need to kill her character and she'll represent the beginning of the North healing after this battle. IMO

I think her death and rebirth as a Zombie killer is going to be hard-core.

I'm trying to remember, but has a main character rebirthed as a zombie yet? I guess you could say she isn't main character and there's many rumors of someone's coming back. Here's my guess......

He played WR as a sophomore because they had a senior that was pretty good, but Card has been training as a QB since 6th grade. The fact that he was athletic enough to play WR while waiting for his turn at QB is a weird thing to hold against him.

Book Spoiler:



Catelyn Stark does come back in the books by Thoros as Lady Stoneheart much like Jon in the show, but not as a white walker.
 
I don't know how this season ends, but it won't be with Dany sitting on the Iron Throne. This feels a little too much like Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. Her thirst for the crown will be her undoing.

I like this analogy, especially because – did you know? – Grand Maester Pycelle is played by the same actor that plays Walter Donovan, the main Nazi villain in The Last Crusade (Julian Glover).

Also...

Tyrian has to live because Bran just made him one more character that knows Aegon's true lineage during their little fireside chat. It also portends that Jon and Daeny will dispute who is the rightful heir, potentially, and Tyrian may have to stand in the middle of that dispute. What else may have Bran told him? The fate of Cersei and her "child"? He definitely got the GPS on the Lannister and Golden Company armies... I predicted early on that the Golden Company will actually aid in the Battle of Winterfell.
 
Great section on your cards. Grew up in so cal in the 70's...and this was my top(ps) card.

- Sorry about another hospital visit. Hope everything is better for those involved.

- There's not much to discuss as relates to the backup QB situation until Roschon Johnson catches up.

- Like you, I'm not sold on Kingsbury as an NFL head coach. If I'm wrong in the future, I'll admit it. Most college coaches struggle as an NFL coach because they can't adjust to not having power over players. To be an NFL coach, you have to be okay with being cussed out at by a player at any moment and shake it off.

- You're one of the few not missing LeBron in the playoffs. The ratings are down dramatically without him
