I'd be shocked if Game of Thrones gets renewed for a second season. There were a lot of script problems in that first episode, and given what I know is coming down the road, some terrible casting decisions.

Heh, good call, pretend Canadian.

Ether.

Somebody takes his books too siriusly.

LJ, your favorite VEEP one-liners?

I don't think I can top  "Boom-Boom Shake-Shake the Womb."

Should I be watching that show?

I watched the first few episodes of season 1 when it started but lost interest.

Me too.   I liked it, but for some reason bailed after 3 or 4 eps.

I think it aired after newsroom, which I found so underwhelming week after week I just turned the television off after.

I did exact same thing as you two...three or four and then bailed.  Then I heard it got good and caught a season two episode on the plane (the Finland one with Dave Foley)...awkward loling with headphones on ensued.

Never finished season one; I think they must have really figured some stuff after it.  It's really, really funny right now.

I'm getting very close to finishing my slow, occasional re-read.  

Gin, who will the Sixers get at 3?

taking a week off or is there more to come?

Some of each.

Don't follow college closely enough to say...by all accounts a deep draft.  Team needs some excitement though, one other cool player along with MCW would be enough to get me out to games.

But seriously, **** Evan Turner.  He gets worse every game.  I can't believe we gave up Granger's corpse for this fool.  At least Granger can play smart d and pass, ET reminds me of the 13 year olds I used to play against online in NBA2K a few years ago.  They'd play with Lebron and I'd score 50 with Maggette or some other scrub.

Pump fake AHHHHHHHHH JUMP!
Pump fake AHHHHHHHHH JUMP! (fall down, slipping on other foot)

Worst defender I've seen.

Heading into next year w/ MCW, Noel, one of this year's big 3/4, and hopefully a shooter (Stauskas or Harris maybe) taken at 10, they will definitely not be boring.

I still have all those losing Kentucky Derby betslips people bought me on 5/5/07.  Found them a couple of months ago at the bottom of my sock drawer.

Unfortunately, Scranton for fantasy auction in 3 weeks is the only weekend excursion I'm going to be able to afford this Spring.

Also, holy mustard yellow Pirates unis this afternoon.

Wow.    Hard to believe my bachelor party was over 7 years ago now.

this thread gets a buttload of views every day, but so few posts...

It's a 1700 page thread.  At least 90% of those are search engines, the rest are tm.  He starts over at page one every few months and role plays his way through.

No lie, I'm doing this right now. 

This job is SOOOO boring.  'bot, get me hired up there so that we can have office hijinx and I can get paid in actual money.

My catchup has caught up to where I started catching up.  It's like looking into a mirror with a mirror behind me.

....and done.  Now what?  

The reddit thing crashed and burned even though gin relented and participated.  

It's been years since I started saying it would happen, but maybe now this really is just my blog.
