That's how I feel about the success stories in the girl-age threads.

im in kidare cum at me bro. 4 real. stp outsiide
360 and not online.
Recreated my indoor team as my squad. A couple of the tall lads look really fucking tall when they're out there, lol.
I hope you savour the next 2 books because its going to take GRRM another 10 years to finish the series
I managed 10 pages of the first one. What I need is a holiday so I can read again, and thankfully I've a 'holiday' over Easter so I might actually get to read A Game of Thrones!
Would get me back into the mood for the TV show plus give me greater depth I guess in understanding it all.

Are the GoT books actually good?

Yes. Why would you assume otherwise?

Just wondering really. I have the first book, going to read it soon.
Great series, even though I have lost interest. I lost a semester to GoT, CoK, SoS.

Now is a good time to read them. You have 5 great books in front of you as well as the tv show which is starting its 2nd season next month.
Once you're done you'll have to endure the wait like the rest of us. I think book 6 won't be out until at least 2016.
I've heard that, and it scares me. Fucking loving them and I've breezed through them to this point because I couldn't put them down. I guess I'll just take the next two at a slower pace to savour the flavour. At least I've got the show to sustain my interest once the books are done.I hope you savour the next 2 books because its going to take GRRM another 10 years to finish the series
I'm really enjoying it. It's not Sopranos level of good for me, but it's a guilty pleasure. I'm also on the cusp of buying thisand strutting around like Tim Riggins.

Better than good. There's never been a better time to jump in, with the series and all. I read GoT, watched the first series, connected the dots and joined the two to colour my imagination when reading all the followup books.
Storm of Swords is the greatest book I've ever read. Mostly in part to the excellent two before it. It's an orgasm in literature form.
I've a 5 hour flight to Cyprus (and back again) next month so I'll probably get stuck into it during that, I always enjoy reading on planes.
Must check this show out then, can't say I've heard of it until now but a quick Google shows very positive reviews.
I will, very soon.

No fighting man! Lets just wish Abidal recovers quickly and everything turns out fine for him.
I was going to rage at Busquets not being included, seems like the beast is still only 23.
If AFFC and ADWD reach the same standards of the first two books then I'll be more than content. I was well aware reading SoS that it would take a few thousand extra pages of exposition before I read anything of similar goodness.
Storm of Swords is amazing. It did have that chapter that made me want to rage quit the series though.
I have a bad feeling that the show will have caught up with the books before the final volume is finished. If they get renewed for a 3rd season they may have to split Storm of Swords into 2 separate seasons. That would work because so much happens in SoS. You'd need 2 seasons to get through it all.
GRRM has confirmed that he has 6 different projects he's working on and none of them are the 6th book. In fact, I think it's almost a certainty that the show will have caught up before the final book is released. Then there will be trouble.
I would argue that AFFC is the worst book in the series, Yet still good. ADWD is great though.

It had to be you.
Jeez, you guys stay up late.
Why did Mad Max 2 and Running Man have to be on at the same time?
I really feel like re-watching Running Man. Saw it like 4 times when I was a kid. Arnold is a legend.

Im sure most Europeans are put off because it's American football
@Arnie: I bought a jacket similar to that after the first season because of his. Lol
Anyone know how to multiquote on the GAF web app?
I know the one, I read that at about 3 in the morning and I was ready to fucking give up. I honestly put the book down in disgust. Luckily I read on and certain other chapters made up for it.
So I've heard. I'm almost spurred on to enjoy it more though because of all the negative impressions. I'm glad that ADWD is well regarded though. Can't wait for it.
Don't apologise. Keep drinking.IAM SRY GUYZ
I plan to get a Dillon football t shirt too.

It was on Film 4 just now. Something to do with Hunger Games? You'll probably be able to catch it - It'll be on a few more times as F4 just love their repeats.
Running Man was definitely a movie I've seen more times as a kid than as an adult. I'm sure that was the intended effect.
Friday Night Lights is more interesting than the Europa league
No seriously, everybody here should watch it even if they don't like American Football. It's so good.
Also, One Tree Hill is good if you like Basketball and teen drama.
Could do with a good football and baseball show now.

Not everyone likes it
I think you'll think of AFFC & ADWD differently because you didn't have to wait.

I always used to enjoy Dream Team. It was bollocks but it was fun bollocks.
Oh wow, I completely forgot about that. I was a wee lass when that was on TV.
edit: I think one thing the US could do to increase interest in the MLS is to do a Soccer based drama show. Get some decent actors and a good plot and you're gravy.

Quoting is a pain on here. So no quoting for now.
@Arnie. Already have one of those
@Messi I like One Tree Hill and the OC. Just not Season 2.
To anyone who likes FNL , try watching Varsity Blues. Fantastic teen dramedy centered around HS FOOTBALL (american)

It's a pretty good weekend for football isn't it
I'll check it out.
Those chapters were ok. A bit boring but nothing terrible.

WHR IS OLVIA SSE2?
No-one has mentioned any spoilers?
Unless you mean the identity of the POV characters. I'll stop if you have don't want to know.

Question: If a guy gets a red card can someone be subbed in for him? Or is the team down a player for the whole game?

Players out for the rest of the game and misses the next match as well
Man down for the remainder of the 90 minutes.
