Things We Saw Today
As part of DC Comics‘ New 52, one character was rumored to be rebooted as an openly gay character, but who was it going to be?

“[T]here are always the nerds who, though not jocks, are still into sports.” He says exact parallels between Game of Thrones and the NFL will depend on your favorite teams, but to him, “the Starks are heroes, so they would be the Giants” — and that, he says, makes the Patriots the Lannisters.
You heard it hear first: The man responsible for Game of Thrones is a NY Giants fan. That sound you hear is me, bragging. (via Vulture)
