Not in Saskatchewan apparently!

While my expectations have gone way down over this season, I don't know that anything will ever beat the Sopranos ending for me as the worst ever (Lost is right up there too).

I saw the same post... I had zero interest in trying Yes before that (Foody Goody has scared me away from any and all chinese buffets like that) and now that picture sealed the deal. If Popeyes comes to this end of town, I'll try it but if it's KFC-like then it'll be a one and done for me. I'll stick to Mary Brown's for my fried chicken.

As long as Anthem is trying to make Impact work, I can't see them adding a direct competitor to the Fight Network.

They did add a taco stand to the south end concessions so you might be onto something! 🤔

It seems like a good deal for the people who don't go to their seats anyway. They stand by the Rum Hut & drink so this gets them in & their 1st drink for cheaper than what they probably pay now. They can always just go sit in an empty seat until someone kicks them out too since sell-outs are rare (Banjo Bowl excluded).

I wonder if they are working on a Canadian deal? Nitro was also on TNT and TSN aired it (not live though) so maybe we see something like that? TSN did lose WWE to Sportsnet so they might want to work with AEW.

Per wikipedia, 90 million for TNT vs 93 million for Spike.

AEW to air on TNT.

The Canadian Mafia can get to anybody!

Yeah, he missed all of the 2018 season and then left the team (he could have red-shirted to get a year of eligibility back) so people thought he was done with football. From the sounds of it, the guy turned into a ghost (Hodge says scouts were even asking him if he had any contact info because they couldn't reach him). McManus has a family connection to him through his in-laws though so the team was able to keep in touch with him. He got the itch to play again and here we are!

Yes & yes.

And that's the home town discount!

Maybe they're referring to all the secret practice roster players? More than enough players there to field a second team.

The end they gave us also completely ignored the fact that she sent Bronn to kill him and that her plan failed. He should have been dead but she was concerned that he was bleeding?

Possibly or maybe he means the fact that they turned a favorite character heel. Going by social media, a lot of people are pissed about their favorite Khalesi is now the Mad Queen so in that respect, he was right. I know at least one of my friends was so livid after last night that she swore off the show.

They could probably have extended last nights episode about 30 minutes and wrapped everything up. The major fighting is done so it's down to politics and a couple more deaths. There is still some intrigue left though so I wouldn't say Arya is the only interesting character left but it is getting to be slim pickings.

Ummm GOT ends May 19th...

The decision to reduce the number of episodes didn't do them any favors. I realize part of that was budgetary because of all the expensive battle scenes but I feel like an extra episode or two would have been much better for the show (and if it was more plot than action it wouldn't have been as expensive to make). Yeah, no issues with them dying (I picked them both to die in the GOT pool I'm in), but definitely not satisfying enough. Minor nitpick I suppose.

Agreed, the pacing over the last couple seasons has not been very good. The series on the whole hasn't been as good once they ran out of book material to use. Cersei was definitely underused and deserved a far better (more personal?) death than getting buried under rubble. The bad guys (Joffrey/Ramsey) finally getting what they deserved were highlights of the series and it didn't feel anything close to that with her. It did look like there was some wildfire explosions happening though as there were some green flames appearing sporadically as Dany lit up King's Landing.

Martin has also expressed surprise that people are still expecting a happy ending. Now whether or not that means a villain wins in the end or not is TBD. Jon or Arya has to be the one... with my money on Jon since Arya taking out both Dany & the Nights King seems like overkill. They do feature her prominently in the trailer for the last episode though so we'll see.

Tyrion will have to answer for letting his brother escape, so if he dies, I don't think it will come from Bronn. His fate will most likely be decided by which Targaryen wins out next week. I also think the 7 kingdoms having autonomy is a real possibility. If Jon is able to take out Dany and still doesn't want the crown, I could see him abolishing the iron throne & leaving to live out his days beyond the wall with Tormund and Ghost.

She didn't even hint, at certain points, she flat out said she was capable of doing this. If you re-watch the episode where her band of stragglers finally makes it to Qarth, she gives a quote that shows her mindset and how she sees things. It makes sense when you pair the quote with her seeing the Red Keep: "Thirteen, when my dragons are grown, we will take back what was stolen from me and destroy those who have wronged me! We will lay waste to armies and burn cities to the ground! Turn us away, and we will burn you first."

You can take Jack Swagger out of the WWE but can you take the WWE out of him? FWIW, he won his squash match with an arm triangle in the 1st round. Could have risked a DQ though by holding the choke a few seconds after the ref tried breaking it up.

Fun fact: Tom Magee is from Winnipeg! Davey Boy Jr tweeted out a snippet of the match a while ago, shortly after it was discovered. Looking forward to seeing the whole thing.
