I couldn't help but think of golf watching this scene. Methinks guy who hit the boat would make a good golfer.

I'm part way through season 2.

It took me a few times seeing it to convince myself, and then a quick check of IMDB.com, but you guys didn't tell me…

…that Harry Vardon is Stannis Baratheon!!!

I consider reading the 5 books as one of the best things Ive accomplished in my life. I'm not even joking they are incredable if you are just watching the show don't get to attached to any character the author has no problem killing off main characters.

I guess that wasn't really a surprise to those who'd read the books.

I'm just waiting for the blonde to turn into a bigger and bigger badass. Right now she's pondering marrying some big wealthy black dude in some fancy city somewhere.

The red wedding was very much a shocker for those of us who read the books. Though i am sure we were a bit cautious after Ned was dispatched :p As a person who's kept up with the books, i found it hilarious to watch the reactions of everyone about the red wedding.

Though it would please me if those of you could write the word, "SPOILER" in the subject. Just to let those know there might be some information about the show they haven't seen yet.

No spoiler - blonde with dragons has a real badass scene in the middle of season 3. One of the best moments of the season.

I read the books and was bored with Bran in the books and that damned crow too until the very last bit - to me it becomes interesting. Same with the show.

So you're watching GoT knowing some of the spoilers? It's refreshing knowing there are folks out there who aren't so spoiler sensitive. You using HBO GO?

I think fewer people are spoiler sensative than the internet might lead you to believe. The ones that hate spoilers are just REALLY ****ING LOUD about it.

      Playing With Irons

      By iacas ·

      Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
