Just don't send Ivan over there. I've kinda grown to like not walking on rubble every day.

Re: Hawks Board Non-Sports Talk
I'm finally ready to complain about how non-sensical Game of Throines has become over the last few seasons...
This ain't the show I signed up for. (non-spoiler version)

The RingerNo One Knows What Makes a Good Episode of ‘Game of Thrones’ Anymore
The more central the show has become to pop culture, the less agreement there has been on what keeps it there
For a television show that still has the unparalleled capacity to bring audiences together in historic numbers, Game of Thrones has proved critically divisive in its final season. What widespread consensus there currently is around latter-day Thrones holds that the series’ M.O. has radically changed, an evolution that can be traced to a couple of inflection points. First, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss overtook the source material of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels, around Season 6.
The results of Thrones’ new reality have been extensively cataloged, including: accelerated travel times, skipped-over integral conversations...and ambiguous pacing around seemingly significant plot drivers.

This season definitely feels rushed. In fact they could have reasonably split the events of this season into two seasons and fleshed them out more.

Apparently, in an interview earlier this year, GRR Martin stated his story has like 5 seasons worth of story telling left in it. The show runners were just ready to be finished with the show and jammed all that into a couple of short seasons instead.

And it really shows.

All the DeBore jokes aside, those of us who got too used to Atlanta scoring 3+ goals a game are coming around to this new defensive stalwart approach. Congrats on making MLS history!

Who watches soccer for clean sheets ?
I miss Tata and Miggy. We used to fun to watch. That’s the brand of soccer that was giving us top 10-ish attendance numbers in the WORLD.

HBO didn't want it to end. It's their cash cow. The showrunners decided to wrap things up. And some of the actors/producers were also ready to move on.
David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. Those are the guys responsible for the last few years of the show.

For you @kg01
http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/26795677/pastner-accusers-face-criminal-fraud-chargeProsecutors in Arizona have filed criminal charges against a couple that accused Georgia Tech basketball coach Josh Pastner of sexually assaulting the woman in a hotel room in February 2016.
According to Oro Valley Magistrate Court records, Ron Bell, Pastner's former friend, was charged Friday with providing false information to law enforcement and facilitation of a fraud scheme practice.
Bell and his girlfriend, Jennifer Pendley, are accused of being "engaged in a plan or scheme ... to allege a false, fraudulent accusation of sexual assault against Josh Pastner with the goal of obtaining an anticipated civil monetary settlement/judgment,"

Heeey, why's this "for me"?
But yeah, this has been going on the last 2 years basically. The guy is bat-sh*t crazy, threatened Pastner's family and everything. He and his gf belong in jail and it's a shame folks in the media like Gary Parrish gave the guy a forum to speak about GT and Pastner.
Last year IIRC Parrish interviewed the guy on his radio show. This was at the height of the me-too stuff so both the guy and Parrish had an attention-agenda. After it turned out it be 100% false, nothing. Just left Pastner's name tarnished.
I'm no Pastner fan but that wasn't right.
Funny thing is the guy's uncle actually mentored Kenny Anderson years ago so KA (who's upset that GT/Pastner didn't hire him, I guess) had been defending the crazy guy.
GT bball is a freaking soap opera.
