Hmmm...an hour and a half into the game, and AF/Wyoming is already 10 minutes into the 3rd quarter.

Valid point and perspective. I was musing over the last episode last night based on the commentary below:
Males are not the only viewers, and the last episode (judging by what was going across my feed) may have been a miss with some of y'all, but it sure got other groups of viewers engaged and talking. In the case of shadow_operative's point--the build up he finds dull and slow; from what I could gather, some of the audience consider it foreplay. Lots of scenes, the dragon buzz of the ship, for example, Raenyra knows its Daemon, she smirks a little; the scene in the garden with them together and she's wearing his necklace (I think, maybe that was the other scene with the tapestry comment). Him holding her hand as they went out into the night. Those little things were not violent, didn't have a whole lot of dialogue, but they strike a chord with some of the audience. Also from what I was reading, some of the audience are already forming 'ships,' i.e. Daemon/Raenyra vs. Ser Christan (sp?)/Raenrya and I would argue that those viewers perspectives and criticisms are just as valid and debatable as are the ones found on a male dominated message board. That episode was directed by a woman, and the way Raenyra's viewpoint in the brothel was depicted greatly reflected that.
So, now you've got some women out there trying to figure out bad boy Daemon or rooting for low born Ser Christan or even the 'why not both, you go girl' fan club that will keep those viewers engaged. I have no experience with screen writing/show running but I suspect it is a pretty difficult balancing act, and the episode writers and directors have been changed around some and whether that is by design or not I have no idea. I'm willing to give it a watch every week and find out, however.
Another thing that stood out for me when reading various comments online (not in this thread) is how many women found Daemon and Raenyra to be kindred spirits in that both felt being held captive by their station--he is the second born son never to inherit and she is the girl who must marry for the realm and that bonds them in a restless drive to 'do' something, anything where they have some control. Yeah, sure incest for one, but having not read the Martin book upon which this series is based, it does seem to be a very realistic theme, what defines us throughout history--who's your daddy? Or to a lesser and often under-rated, 'who was your mother and what was your relationship like?' As much as we tell ourselves we are masters of our own fate, those ties that bind have far greater impact than we give them credit.
Just some morning thoughts before work.

Don't know if shit's really borked, of if this is just a minor pain in the ass, but starting since last night, I can't log in, UNLESS I leave the "Remember Me" box checked. Never had this problem before.

About to take a motorcycle ride through the Virginia wine country:

Did not realize that Derek Wareheim is now the OC for New Mexico...their offensive struggles now make more sense.

These comments are applicable to whichever game you are watching. This week's games are the polar opposite of last week's Friday night games.

He was in the studio for the Boise/NM halftime...Said Texas has a chance against 'Bama because of Bijan, but have to play great defense. Not real insightful, but had good things to say about Bijan, and didn't appear lost.

Link just copied first track but the whole album is pretty great...well, except the last track, which is a 26 minute free-form jam, which has its moments, but get pretty tedious pretty fast.

And 7 seconds into the 2nd, it's 7-0 Boise.

Perhaps I'm misremembering something, but I think that the last game VY played at Texas, the 2006 Rose Bowl, was Texas football's 800th program win. Colt won 45 games as QB in his 4 years, which means after the 2009 Championship game, Texas would have had 845 wins.

The last game that Bear Bryant coached was the loss to Texas in that Cotton Bowl. Just saying ...
Wrong. He coached one more season. Bryant's last game was the 1982 Liberty Bowl, a 21-15 victory over Illinois.
