[Ulysees E. McGill]

He is definitely a bad ass. I like Perrin very much also.

Dang I love that series. Makes me wanna wade back in. Did you hear that Amazon is doing a WoT series?

how do you feel on this OC hire you said it may be his down fall for waiting and saying recruiting was more important.

 

[BruinVol]

Damn I hate this. The Wizzard was my first Hero!

As a little kid I would listen to John Ward call basketball games in my room. Had a nerf goal hanging on back of the door. Would pretend I was Tony White and make shots as Ward was calling the game.

Tony White with a 3 point line would be have posted some huge numbers

The wheel of Time. Robert Jordan wrote it but died before he could finish the story.

Thanks. So Brandon Sanderson finished it, I assume ? U know, I'm a little afraid GRRM doesn't finish that last book, "A Dream of Spring". Well, I think that's the early title for it

Unless the books have pictures it doesn't apply here.

There were lots of discussions here over the last month. Many of them hypothetical in nature.

The closest I came to posting what you said was that the delay in the hire was setting Pruitt up for potenial criticism if it wasn't a sexy hire. I also pointed out that the success of the hire woudnt be know for two years.

So no I never said what you posted

@engineerVOL and @volatil

Best of luck to you and your family.

ok I agree. my wording was way off.. I do agree..but I do remember you saying this may be his down fall and thats why I asked your op.

The series kind of drags with books 7-9, IMO.

But what Jordan and Martin do is different enough that they really shouldn’t be compared too much in anything other than their influence and impact.

GRRM’s work is better compared to Patrick Rothfuss’. And IMO Rothfuss is the much more talented writer, but GRRM might be a better storyteller.

The Terry Goodkind Sword of Truth series is excellent as well as Margaret Weiss & Tracy Hickman Dragonlance series. I know, cue Nerd Alert gif...

Oh Man, my all-time favorite basketball Vol. I did the same thing in my living room with the nerf hoop, volatil. Even had a poster from the Sentinal with White holding a basketball, a magic wand and wearing a top hat, "The Wizard". Prayers for the Wiz

Oh I think this hire makes or breaks him.

He hit a grand slam with the hire now he needs to get out of his way and let him run the offense

Wow, Kitchens gonna get Browns HC job.

Yeah...I worry about him finishing also. Sanderson finished the WoT series with help from Jordans wife Harriet, who was also Jordans editor IIRC, directly from Jordans notes. He did an absolutely awesome job wrapping up the hundreds of storylines in what he called a "Labor of Love" as he was a huge WoT fan himself.

The Wheel of Time is a huuuuge true epic story laid out over dozens of nations and distinct cultures, with hundreds of characters.

Bad hire imo

Worse than the Cardinals
