Cavs-raps is getting chippy. Granted, it's because torontos interior defense is shit and Cleveland is living at the rim. A team can only allow so many dunks.

Re: Game of Thrones Season 6: The Quickening (chatter/guesses/spoilers)

I thought that was a great episode. The Danaerys Hammer was awesome. Not how I was expecting that to play out. But if you're gonna get a Khalasar's support, might as well kill their Khal. Or all of them.

Sansa/Jon getting together was great. I wasn't expecting that this episode.

Yeah. Maybe even a year after a new coach is hired too. Transfers because of coaching changes have happened forever, probably at a near constant level.
