  1. reporting back now that I'm back home. usbnt won against a lethargic venezuela team. standout players were the combo of burners of #9 Samuel Sarver (scored on a nice diving header) and #7 Dante Sealy
  2. related, but not seeing much coverage. I'm headed out to see u-16 usbnt vs. venezuela at the eufa development tournament in prague. I can't find an updated team roster, any prospects to keep an eye on?
  3. tl;dr j/k further upstream george parmesan (I think) theorized that they had to sacrifice nearly their entire army to draw out the night king. here's a question I haven't seen posed: where did melisandre come from? she rode from the same direction the dothraki eventually went all leeroy jenkins towards, how did she part the wights? did she?
  4. I remember that scene as well. I went back and rewatched it and near the end tyrion tells the alchemist, "you won't be making wildfire for my sister any longer, you'll be making it for me." so at one point before the battle of blackwater tyrion was the nino brown of wildfire. now he gets to winterfell to defend against the attack of a stronger opponent while everyone is harping about needing every man and sword they can muster, and completely forgets all about it.
  5. no. they could have launched it at the wights after the dothraki charge and caused major casualties without exposing the dragons. it is stored at king's landing, but the secret recipe is something tyrion could have bought on his visit to king's landing during the wight exhibition or varys could have acquired through his little birds.
  6. it just occurred to me that during the entire time fortifying winterfell for the long night, 3 of the highest advisors -- tyrion, ser davos and varys -- were veterans of the battle of blackwater, and none of them thought to incorporate wildfire against an enemy who's biggest known weakness is fire. tyrion's head is deeper up his ass than I thought.
  7. he was beheaded by Ice. doesn't that kill him for good?
  8. she didn't, arya gave her a dragonglass one. you see it again when sansa pulls it out while hiding being the tomb with tyrion.
  9. the night king is a hundred and seventy-two years old! he probably has bad knees. during the episode I thought the scene of arya being stuck and sneaking around the horde of zombies in the library was pretty useless. now I wonder if she somehow picked up on something there that allowed her to get past the white walkers undetected in the godswood.
  10. is arya the unanimous MVP or does jorah steal some votes?
  11. overall enjoyed season 2 a bit less than season 1. the guy playing chubbs cracked my shit up, I hope he sticks around for next season to fill the role of the random fat cobra kai guy at the all-valley tournament. fuck yeah on the ending cliff hanger, although how is that supposed to advance with johnny seemingly ditching smart phones for good?
  12. yeah, heritage auctions is tops. dallas based, too.
  13. yeah, bit of dumbassery on my part. totally ignored that you had started talking about tanker dumps. I misunderstood water drop as in droplets. apologies for the derail. this is fucking tragic.
  14. I get that part. I understood it was if water drops reacted differently during a blaze that would turn them into bullets or something that would pierce clothing and skin.
  15. I still don't follow. if the force of a rain drop that forms high up in the clouds is not able to punch a hole in my head during a rain shower, how is a water drop originating from a leaf/tree branch/arching off a fire hose able to be accelerated so much that it would cause injury?
  16. mario kart 64 was our jam. our battles were so intense that for a time it wasn't uncommon for me to come home during the day to find someone at our place practicing.
  17. twist the back rest knob on his office chair all the way to "-" try not to lose your shit when his arms and legs flail helplessly as the tries to catch himself from falling backwards.
  18. I realized that while typing my reply I had deleted the note I made on my phone at the time with the exact speed, I was being conservative. it must have been an impressive number, the crew mentioned they had never experienced that in all their years of experience.
