In a series with as much lore and mystery as Game of Thrones, it’s no surprise that there are a plethora of theories on the internet. Though the show has only been around since 2011, the first book was published way back in 1996. And even since then, there have been plenty of theories. A famous one was “R+L=J” which theorized that Rhaegar Targaryen never kidnapped Lyanna Stark and instead, they were in love and had a son who turned out to be Jon Snow. The decades-old concept was proven right in the season seven finale.
Pittsburgh Steelers (for now) wide receiver Antonio Brown is set to appear on the upcoming episode of LeBron James’ The Shop on HBO. In anticipation of the latest episode, HBO dropped the official trailer which features Brown discussing the narrative that is building around him being a distraction.
