    Euron knew that Yara would be starting from Dragonstone and possibly had intelligence that she was heading for Dorn. As for the loot train, Jaime suspected that an attack was coming from the rear -- remember the discussion about flogging stragglers. Also, if Jaime had scouts the Dothraki probably ran them down and killed them (or Dragon ate them for a pre-battle appetizer).

    Keep in mind that it was very foggy when Euron attacked Yara's fleet.

    More good questions, all of which I have been thinking about. I think that Yara stole supplies along with ships from the Iron Islands. She was stealing the best ships anyway -- why not also steal food. As for months to sail to Dragonstone, I saw nothing that suggested that it took months. If you look at the maps, crossing the Narrow Sea was a short distance. https://www.google.com/search?q=map+westeros&tbm=isch&imgil=OpV1eyDE6zSFHM%253A%253BLe0L_MCjPCDbkM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fawoiaf.westeros.org%25252Findex.php%25252FKnown_world&source=iu&pf=m&fir=OpV1eyDE6zSFHM%253A%252CLe0L_MCjPCDbkM%252C_&usg=__AJQUXg6XCdW1FAsK6uLHOYinP5Y%3D&biw=1920&bih=947&ved=0ahUKEwjUk8zvr8nVAhVK9GMKHcHLBHkQyjcIRw&ei=e5eKWZTqKcrojwPBl5PIBw#imgrc=OpV1eyDE6zSFHM: What bothers me the most was how easily Euron's fleet beat Yara's fleet. Yara supposedly took the best ships. My best answer is that in his travels Euron discovered ways to build better ships and use fireballs. Still, I was very disappointed by Yara and her fleet -- in wrestling terminology they were "jobbing" for Euron to build up his "heel" status.

    I share your concerns. My theory is that without Dany in the saddle, the other two dragons would kill everyone, friend and foe. As for Westeros I have studied the map, and King's Landing is fairly close to Highgarden. As for the dead, I think that they are heading for the sea to get around the wall. These are all just theories.

    According to Sportsline, the Twins have a 14.8% chance of making the playoffs and a 7.8% chance of winning the AL Central. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/sportsline-mlb-playoff-race-projections-al-and-nl-wildcard-picture-gets-clearer/ Sportsline also computes a .3% chance of the Twins making it to the World Series. I find this moderately encouraging, considering the expectations at the beginning of the season. Let's not read too much into this. Such predictions are subject to question, but also at least slightly interesting.

    Great writeup and videos. Thanks!

    Nice job, Stevie.

    Nice work by Belisle.

    He is warming up.

    Thank you Esco for taking that popup!

    This is one reason why I am hoping for a new manager next year.
  12. glunn
    Never give up.
  13. glunn
    Indians lost today and Royals are losing.
  14. glunn
    Grossman got jobbed there?
  15. glunn
    I wish that someone could design a batting glove to provide more protection for Sano's hand and wrist without affecting his swing,
  16. glunn
    Does it look like they will resume the game?
  17. glunn
    Nice setup. Bad start. More rain could be a good thing.
  18. glunn
    I wish for better plate appearances. It seems to me that the offense should be better. Maybe I am really wishing for a new hitting coach.
  19. glunn
    I think that the FO is trying to win in the short run and the long run. There is a lot of discussion about the Twins and other teams waving the white flag by trading veterans for prospects before the trade deadline. That does not mean that the FO and the players necessarily stop focusing on how to win tomorrow's game and the game after that.

    I sold a put option at $75, so I am happy with how it's doing.
  21. glunn
    Losing streaks are hard on us fans and on the players, and the fact that the Twins went into sell mode probably demoralized the clubhouse. That said, I think that a new manager makes sense.
  22. glunn
    Another painful loss.
  23. glunn
    That bird distracted the batter. I think that he is a Twins fan.
  24. glunn
    Hildy did not fold. He just came in too late.
  25. glunn
    Sano seems to have lost some bat speed.
