The Seven Kingdoms as Baseball Teams

quote:

The Night’s Watch: Chicago Cubs

“What the hell do you know about being a Chicago Cubs fan?” (Getty & HBO)
Listen, “I shall wear no crowns and win no glory” is a line in the Night’s Watch oath. If that doesn’t scream “Cubs!” what does? The North Side’s loveable losers have a lot in common with the North’s Black Brothers. They’re both overlooked outcasts who rarely make a splash, but without them baseball and Westeros would crumble. Speaking of crumbling: Wrigley Field and Castle Black might not be long for this world, though the iconic ivy and ice help mask the decay. Hey, Since Lord Commander Mormont hails from Bear Island and sports “The Old Bear” moniker, do we even need to superimpose a new sigil?

Night’s Watch words: Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night’s Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.

Team words: Spring gathers, and now the season begins. It shall not end until it feels like death. We shall take no titles, hold no pennants, father no dynasties. We shall wear no crowns and win no glory. We shall live and die in the field. We are the bats in the darkness. We are the gloves on the ivy-covered wall. We are the shields that guard the North Side from the South. We pledge our careers and honor to the Chicago Cubs, for this season and all the seasons to come — until we can play for a contender.

Yeah.
I'm sure the most guarded chair in the most guarded castle in the most guarded city in the realm is just a silly place to hide something valuable. Especially camouflaged as part of the throne.

Yeah, it would never fall into the wrong hands with all the benevolent rulers and guards coming in and out of power.

In one of the Asha chapters in ADWD, she mentions the Children of the Forrest/Greenseers having the ability to make the trees come to life and fight like warriors. She heard the legends as a kid where they were summoned to fight the First Men.

Anyone think something like this could happen with Bran against the others.

Would really validate GRRM's new nickname: the "American Tolkien."

I wouldn't mind if it was done in a more passive way. But if Weirwoods just start uprooting themselves and eating people with their branch hands then I'm going to lol (in a bad way).

I'd be incredibly surprised if GRRM went that way. He's good enough of a writer to blaze his own path in the pissed off alive tree soldier department.

Now, what will likely be my last recap post in some time to let the theoretical juices flow some more. Here are the theories that appear from pages 274-298:

Either Brienne dies protecting Jaime or they both die together; Maybe UnCat has him resurrected and his right hand is somewhat restored as well somehow...and he kills Cersei (274)
Detailed recap of Euron and Jaqen's dealings (274)
What did Euron's crew see that needed to be kept secret so bad that he cut the tongues off of all his crew? Did Euron have a really nasty salt wife? was it Fight Club? Or was it the dragon egg trade to kill Balon? (274)
Euron hired a faceless man who knocked Balon off a bridge and into the sea...since the trade was a life for the dragon egg; essentially Euron threw the egg into the sea as he said (275)
More Talk of Mance=Ser Arthur Dayne (276 and 279)
Ashara Dayne is still alive and perhaps has/had a role in the R+L=J cover-up (275)
Brandon Stark + Ashara Dayne = Darkstar (275)
After ToJ, Ned arrived at Starfell with Jon. While there, he slept with Ashara while comforting her over the death of Arthur-this would help explain Ned Dayne + the fact that Wylla was both Jon and Ned's milk mother. (276)
Dany's dragons are lightbringer, Drogo was Nissa Nissa, Dany was reborn in the flames under the bleeding star, and she drew from the fire a weapon to be used against the others. Dany is AA (276)
Mance is Dayne but also a faceless man. This would explain why no one in Winterfell recognized such a famous person (277)
Everyone is a faceless man (277)
CarsonRN + BluegrassBelle = Jon Snow (277)
The last person standing will be Hot Pie astride a giant Bread Dragon (277)
Euron's eye patch is hiding a purple eye (278)
Arya wargs into Drogon, destroys King's Landing and Casterly Rock, then eats Dany, then torches the others (280) [she seriously kills everyone in theory]
Hot Pie is R'llhor and Cold Pie is the Great Other (280)
Maybe Jojen is so in touch with his Green Dreams that he can communicate with the dead as well as he can the living-Howland is dead (280)
Howland Reed=Jojen theory (281)
A crannog is an artificial island found in Scotland or Ireland...Greywater Watch is an artificial island (282)
Crannogmen are cajuns (282)
3 Dragons are 3 titles for the same person (Lord Commander, King in the North, King of the Iron Throne) (282)
Jaime = AA (282)
Beric = AA...the end (282)
Varys has king's blood-his junk was used by a red god worshipper (283)
No, some God just wanted some nuts (283)
Why would Tyrion sleep with Shae if he hated whores so much unless Shae was a spy the whole time (284)
Tywin was the hand that had the passageways built to Chatayaya's (284)
The 7 represent the Starks: Ned=Father, Cat=Mother, etc (285)
The 7 represent characters but not just Starks: Jaime=Knight, Brienne=Maiden, Smith=Gendry (285)
Pale Mare=bloody flux, Kraken and dark flame=Victarion and red priest, Lion and Griffin=Tyrion and Connington, Sun's son=Quentyn Martell, Mummer's Dragon=Aegon, and Perfumed Seneschal=Hizdarh zo Loraq (285)
Perfumed Senschal=the boat Salaesari Qhoran (286)
Perfumed Seneschal=Varys (291)
List of Mystical beasts of Westeros (287)
Coldhands was a wight that Bloodraven warged into (288)
R+L=J proven with Ned's thoughts? (288)
Coldhands was a warg who died and warged into an Other/wight (288)
Jeyne's grandma was Maggie the Frog (290)
Jon is Dragonborn! (291)
Varys was born infertile and so he volunteered his junk as a way to keep the Blackfyre name alive somehow (291)
Final Epilogue will feature a current young character as a very old person telling a story to some young children (292)
The old person is Rickon...therefore Rickon=Smith (creates the story) and the 7 really are the Starks (292)
Varys was castrated by a Targ ritual (292)
Varys is a staunch Targ supporter who supports the best ruler for the realm (supported Rhaegar over Aerys and Aegon over Dany) (292)
Varys only told Aerys about Rhaegars plotting to get him to leave the Red Keep for the first time in 5 years and thus confirming to the world his craziness and unfitness to rule. (292)
The complete Blackfyre Theory in detail (292)
Littlefinger will win the Game of Thrones (292)
Hugo thinks one or all the dragons will die (296)
Ash Williams feels that at least one of the dragon's riders will die as well (296)
Maybe a missing Valyrian sword is in the Iron Throne (296)
Obsidian candles=candles in Hocus Pocus. If they are lit, magic shite can happen (297)
The weirwood trees will come alive somehow but hopefully not LOTR style (298)
Everybody hates Mereen/Dany (various pages)
